Bockyhorsey (2590) - Mesa, Arizona, USA - JUL 20, 2005
Aromas of pine and citrus like most IPA’s. Body copper color with small off white head. Had left some lacing. Flavor of grapefuit and slight bitterness. Cool and crisp on the palate. A good beer.

hopdog (6943) - Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA - JUL 11, 2005
Poured a orange color with an averaged sized, slightly off white head. Aromas of citrus oranges, grapefruit and pine. Tastes of pine, grapefruit and caramel. Has a nice caramel sweet balance to the medium bitter finish. Well done.

omnivore (270) - San Francisco, California, USA - JUL 1, 2005
Nice, honey gold with a thing whispy, white head. THe aroma was sweet and citrusy. On the tongue, there was a slightly fruity attack with an immediate punch of hops and a slight bitterness left on the back of the tongue. Nice.

biz82 (1328) - austin, Texas, USA - APR 7, 2005
UPDATED: APR 8, 2005 Orange in color with little floaters and a rich looking white head. Super hoppy aroma of citrus and pine that I can smell at arms length. A little celery also, upon closed inspection. Great hop flavor with a tongue numbing bitterness. Maybe a little shy on body. Finishes dry. Perhaps a little unbalanced but good none the less.
