anders37 (2505), Malmö, Sweden Jul 22, 2008 Draught @ Elysian Field. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a small white head. Malty hoppy citrus aroma. Malty fruity bitter hoppy flavor wit hints of grapefruit. Has a long bitter hopy finish with some bitterness in the aftertaste. hoppybeers4me (15), Ohio, USA Jul 21, 2008 Bomber bottle, found in Anchorage, July 9. I love IPAs, but there was something unusual about this one. Poured slightly hazy with about a 1/8" head. Nice citrus flavor with malty undertones that did not seem to balance with the hops, giving it an off taste. Still good and easy to drink. I think if I had the opportunity to drink more of it, it might grow on me. Not available where I live. daniellerose7 (119), new york, New York, USA Jul 14, 2008 A solid IPA- I like the dark golden color and the aftertaste- not too hoppy, but a pleasant beer all around. Glad to see a hometown beer in New York! Bottle from Whole Foods Bowery. blutt59 (514), Dallas, Texas, USA Jul 12, 2008 bottle, good hoppy malt bread nose, color is a golden orange with a small head, flavor is a little lacking with some bitter grapefruit and a light finish notalush (1971), Rawn-kawn-kohma, New York, USA Jul 10, 2008 Pours a hazy copper, with a soapy ring of white foam - aroma of dough, citrus fruits, rice flour, bread - fairly herbal and hoppy up front, but an odd flavor quickly develops that is starchy and vegetal, like potatoes and other root plants - gets sweet and a little fruity later, and the bitterness returns a bit, bringing with it a kind of coppery character - the starchy character remains underneath it all, though - gets even sweeter and honey-like in the finish - bizarre, and not entirely enjoyable.
