Smells like caramel. Beautiful clear amber. Quite hoppy. No head. Pretty standard Oregon IPA. Thanks Mark!

12 oz bottle. Pours a slightly hazy dark copper. Aroma of pineapple, grapefruit, caramel, floral. Flavor is grapefruit, grass, pine, with a hint of brown sugar. A fairly bitter, very hop forward beer.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Thanks zielimac! Tasted from bottle into a tulip. Poured a orange-amber color with moderate beige foam, somewhat short-lived with a little lace. Strong hoppy aromas, refined English style: citrus (but thankfully not overwhelmingly grapefruity,) earth, wild-flowers, Earl Grey tea. Substantial bready, caramelly malt sweetness which nearly balanced the hops-forward flavor. Tangy and very bitter, but not overly so. Long-lasting bittersweet, fruity aftertaste. Not exactly refreshing or easy-drinking, but tasty and memorable. IPA is not one of my favorite styles, but I have to admit this one is very, very good.

12 ounce bottle. Pours a murky copper with yellowish head that lingers. Hoppy nose, though not as much as a typical IPA. Good mouth feel, Taste is smooth, not typical. Bit of caramel and toffee. Finishes clean. Good beer.

It poured a reddish orange color with a small white head. The aroma was of pine, citrus and hops. The taste was fruity with notes of pine and grass. A very good IPA.

Poured from 12oz bottle into tulip glass. Best by date of 06/05/12
Aroma: citrus hops, peaches and oranges. bit of floral.
Appearance: deep copper color. hazy. two finger off-white head that faded slowly. laces glass nicely.
Taste: very balanced on the sweetness and bitter. not too much on the sweet and the bitter is fairly tame.
Palate: light body and slick texture. lively carbonation. bitter finish but pleasant
Overall: great tasting beer. very refreshing. surprised at the 6.8% alcohol. lots of flavor. would have liked a stronger smell of citrus and floral. Prefer this over the Firestone Walker Union Jack I recently had. Will pick this up again.

A clear, amber pour with a light tan head. The aroma has earthy and pine notes along with some mild caramel. The light body has a smooth texture with decent carbonation. It has a bittersweet taste that gets slightly more bitter for the finish.

Light orange color with nice white head. Aromas of hops, caramel malts and slight pine. On the palate the beer has notes of grapefruits, slight pine, and faint malt. Pretty smooth IPA.
