I didn’t think this would be very good. Turns out, it was. Floral characteristics of Jasmine, but not in any offensive way. So unique and well made that I brought a bottle home with me.

Gription79 (1578) - Bountiful, Utah, USA - MAY 17, 2013
Poured from a 22 ounce bomber, thanks to Mike. Floral, fruity, some tropical fruit notes, perfumy, bready. A dry finish. I could not have much of this.

Gold, clear, white head. Aroma is floral, a little caramel sweetness. Flavor is lightly sweet malt with a pronounced flowery character, like chewing on flower petals, almost perfumy. Very interesting. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

From bottle. Dark cloudy golden with some sediment. Floral, lightly hopped aroma. Much less hop bitterness than a usual IPA, and the flavor is dominated by a pleasing jasmine tea taste. Finishes with an herbal note.

Bottle - pours out cloudy copper. Nose of definite jasmine and grape koolaid. Taste of sweet jasmine and grape. Does have quite a bitter finish. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

1 Pt. 6 Fl. Oz. Bottle. Pours clear orange with a nice off white head that leaves a very healthy lacing. Aroma is flowery (mostly) mixed in with some malts and grain. Taste is pretty much consistent with aroma; you can’t really find the hops on this one, however the jasmine addition gives this beer a nice flavor that I personally find very enjoyable and easy to drink. Not your every day IPA but nevertheless a very good beer.

r464 (1467) - Earth, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 30, 2013
Deep coppery amber color with a whitish head. Sweet, floral, almost candy-like flavor that overpowers the hops and malt beneath. Interesting, but quite a departure from the IPA standard, though still worth trying.

I like the new bottle label. Very flowery taste. Beer made with Jasmine spice.

altonbrownd (4209) - Brussels, BELGIUM - APR 12, 2013
Big bottle at Sushi resto in Porland, OR. Nice golden body with medium head. Nose is hoppy but also lots of Jasmine floral notes. Well done. Taste is hoppy, with sweet floral flavours throughout, some citrus and pine. More flower than hops. Interesting beer.

podey (489) - New York, New York, USA - APR 5, 2013
Shared at tasting with RB group. Pours clear gold with a medium white head. Aroma is intensely floral with notes of jasmine. Flavor is also herbal and floral and the hops are somewhat muted. The floral qualities are a bit much in this beer.

Bottle pours a hazy golden brew with a tiny white top. Scent is floral. Taste is floral as well with jasmine coming through. Bread notes.
