Dec 23, 2008 This one is malty like a MW IPA. Has that caramel malt profile that hits the back of your tongue. Too much diactyl and this would be a diactyl bomb, but it does not have any of that. Despite the caramel presence, this is a fairly dry IPA, even though the smell is very sweet. The hops are not too present in this one, though. Lacing is very nice. This one has a very citrusey finish. Aftertaste is a nice thick palate.

Dec 22, 2008 Poured a nuice amber color with an almost white head. Aroma was fairly sweet for an IPA caramel, and citrusy hops. Flavor was also caramel sweetness, some medicinal hop flavors and a nice bitter finish.

Dec 7, 2008 bottle - Pours amber orange with a two finger head. The aroma is of citrus hops. The flavor has a little sweet caramel malt up front followed by intense citrus hops. It has the expected long, hopped finish. Good.

Dec 6, 2008 lots of lace on the glass and a dry hoppy taste. Had on tap at the Sport restaurant in Fisher Plaza. Slightly above average.

Nov 29, 2008 12oz. bottle, best before Jan. ’09. Freshly citric aroma, lightly sweet and floral with notes of grapefruit, pine and faint caramel. Standard, maybe, but appealing nonetheless. Mostly clear dark amber color with a lasting, foamy head. Flavor is fairly malty and sweet to start, more caramel and light brown sugar sweetness, turning hoppier and fruity, more citrus detected here, and finishing clean with a nice punch of bitterness. Smooth, creamy palate, soft effervescence, body is medium-full. Decently balanced, actually pretty tasty.
