0.5 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 1/20 henrybasset (3) - Maryland, USA - OCT 24, 2009 does not count
This was aweful! Probably the worst beer I’ve ever had. It was supposed to be an IPA, but no hops to the nose, nor to the taste. The backend had the distinctive taste of dirt. Won’t buy it again. :(
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 savnac (1365) - Anchorage, Alaska, USA - OCT 8, 2009
On tap @ DuClaw Fells Point. Clear light amber with a long lasting off white head. Citrus and pine hop aroma with a good amount of caramel malt. Full flavored, bitter and sweet that is nicely balanced. Medium body with a mild carbonation and a long dryish finish. Tasty.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 ben4321 (2056) - Hoboken, New Jersey, USA - SEP 15, 2009
Location: Draft at the Fells Point Brew Pub, 9/6/09
Aroma: Some citrus, hops, a bit spice, some floral essence in there as well
Appearance: Clear golden color, lots of lace on the glass
Flavor: A nice hoppy flavor with a good amount of spice and caramel malts for backing
Palate: Medium bodied brew, lingering flavor
Overall Impression:
This was a pretty average IPA, not great, not bad. Something you could drink no problem, but not something you’d go out of your way for. Try this one at DuClaw as you are sitting outside enjoying the view.

Tap at Arundel Mills in Mar 2008: Pours a transparent deep bronze with a thin coating of stringy-lacing white head. Has a fresh piny grapefruity hoppy nose with sweet pale malty undertones. Starts with decent fullness and sweet toasty caramel and pale malt before a crisp, bittersweet finish. A pretty nice IPA with good grapefruity citrusy hoppy notes.
