3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 brenn79 (922) - Idaho, USA - DEC 14, 2011
22 oz. bottle- Pours brownish orange with a nice off white head. The aroma is citrusy hops,bitter, resinous, syrupy. The taste is hoppy, pungent resin hops, caramel malt. Body is medium, carbonation is also medium. Overall loved the pungent resinous flavors, but I think the malt weighs the beer down a bit, I like my IPA’s a little less balanced.

Orange to golden with foamy white head. Rich floral flavour but surely balanced for sure. Some pine even. Malty base here. Smooth bitterness. Malt does wonders here to provide a good body and smooth palate. Aftertaste a bit disappointing. Good overall. (At De Molen tasting)

3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 poisoneddwarf (979) - Rathdrum, Idaho, USA - DEC 10, 2011
Bomber. Bought at Super 1 in Rathdrum, ID. This was supposed to be Washington state IPA #3 last night but I fell asleep, so here we go, a day late. Pours hazy cantaloupe with a medium cream-colored head with great retention; leaves decorative lacework. Aroma is pine, peach, cotton candy. Taste is sweet and bitter but maybe not as bitter as the other two in this comparison. Carbonation is average and the body is medium. Very solid; much better than the Fremont. Similar in quality, yet definitely different than the Iron Horse.

Mostly pine and floral aroma, soapy looking very head large bubbles. Not a lot of flavorsgoing on, for the deep orange color. Bitter but not lots of depth, bitterness lingers like bile not very. Will not finish.
