tennessejed420 (69), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Nov 7, 2009 12 oz. bottle. Pours a light orange gold with pale white head. Aroma of citrus / fruity hops, apricot. Excellent hoppy taste, finish not too bitter, a great session ipa. CUJO (339), Brooklyn, New York, USA Oct 31, 2009 RnH: I’m thinking that this is going to need a re-rate, I promise to revisit this beer again very soon. The bottom line: I barely remember drinking the beer, yet have some notes written down (it was a long night... "thin and dirty but decent" just isn’t gonna cut it! NayTron (29), Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA Oct 31, 2009 Floral smell and taste. Light bodied and very drinkable. A good everyday beer. kosko20 (302), Bemidji, Minnesota, USA Oct 30, 2009 Keg at Darkness Day. Pour is very nice gold with an off white head. Aroma is lovely of floral hops. Flavor is bitter and the palate is creamy and clean. Solid beer, not much depth but tasty. bsp77 (191), Minnesota, USA Oct 29, 2009 Poured from bottle into Nonic Imperial Pint.
Clear burnished yellow-gold with little head but nice lacing.
Aroma of citrus, grapefruit and sweet toasted malts.
Citrus hops, slightly sweet toasted malt, slight pepper quality. Turns somewhat bitter and spicy at the end. Great balance, almost too much balance for an IPA.
Pretty smooth with medium body and moderate carbonation. Not as dry as many IPAs, actually has more of a spritzy feel.
One of the most thirst quenching IPAs around.
MrBeerFanatic (344), jamestown, New York, USA Oct 27, 2009 Pours a medium bodied amber with a white head. Big aromas of citrus/floral/pine hops, with some caramel. Flavors of sweet and not to dry or bitter hops of the nose with a touch of orange and has a malt backbone of caramel. Delicious and well rounded IPA, and especially for its abv! I enjoyed this one alot. Bitter end, and semi sweet. Great ipa. Enthalpy (3), Pennsylvania, USA does not count Oct 26, 2009 Pours a hazy amber orange color with a thin frothy head. Decent lacing. Aroma is a citrus hop combination which is quite pleasing. As opposed to high hop/alcohol beers, this one doesn’t start or finish sweet, which is a good thing. Quite herbal with notes of citrus, sage and thyme. Finishes clean. Great session beer. Probably the best IPA made today it is so drinkable. MrRoss (614), Delta, British Columbia, Canada Oct 26, 2009 Poured an orangey sort of colour beneath a pinky finger’s worth of creamy white, quick to vanish head. Aroma far better than the appearance, with the hop that I seem to crave. Taste was very, very good although the mouth was thinner than hoped for. Tiny hint of sweetness to finish with.
