curly (548), Nashville, Tennessee, USA Mar 11, 2009 Updated: Apr 15, 2009Pours clear copper with a frothy beige head that leaves good lace. Pine and citrus aromas with good sweetness as well. Floral hop taste with a bitterness that finishes clean. Crisp and refreshing. heynik1885 (53), tonawanda, New York, USA Mar 9, 2009 Pours a nice golden color, with a small white head. Lacing on glass. Earthy smell with, flowers, citrus fruits, hops, and some pine. Taste is same, pretty simple IPA not as bitter as some. Easy to drink, nice aftertaste well done Fred82 (343), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Mar 9, 2009 341ml bottle from LCBO, poured clear yellow-orange with small but nice looking head. Good amount of carbonation can be seen rising to the surface. Aroma is nice strong hoppyness. No other caracter in the aroma. Hops takes all the place. Aroma has not much complexity but its nicely hoppy and fresh. Taste is quite bitter but not too much. Small feeling of alcohol on the finish. Quite pleasant. Awesomely balanced. I’m not a big IPA fan but this one is probably the best I’ve had ! Thumbs up ! Rating #52 joeneugs (282), Livermore, California, USA Mar 9, 2009 Golden amber in color with a small white head. Citrusy aroma, citrusy sweet flavor with moderate bitterness in the end. Stacks up well against their 90 minute IPA, just doesn’t pack quite as much punch. njbfr (105), New Jersey, USA Mar 5, 2009 Clear amber with a decent white head. Piney, citrusy aroma is very pleasing and not overpowering. Flavor is hoppy without tasting like your tongue is going to fall off. Very pleasant and drinkable. Aftertaste is very clean and crisp. Not an IPA guy but this is good. Cavie (1317), Fort Worth, Texas, USA Mar 4, 2009 Now this IPA was a little more manageable. I thought the aroma of warm coffee grind was a welcome change from the typical hop/pine scent. The taste also didn’t kick my ass, which I was appreciative of. BrianDorry55 (117), Spring Hill, Florida, USA Mar 3, 2009 12oz. bottle from Publix. Pours a clear, orange-amber. Slight bubbling carbonation throughout. Small white head. Aroma is mostly just sweet hops. Maybe some citrus. Flavor is some nice slightly bittersweet/ piney hops. Medium-light mouthfeel. Bit of a bitter aftertaste. Very good, drinkable IPA. A great intro IPA. A great session beer. stchloe (473), Portland, Oregon, USA Mar 1, 2009 The hops are amazing. Of course Dogfish puts out some of the best IPAs, but this still deserves a note. A strong woody profile that just dominates.
