KimJohansen (6676), Copenhagen V, Denmark Aug 13, 2009 Hazy orange with a medium beige head. Aroma had hops, pine and lemons. Flavour was quite hoppy with pine, grapefruits and malty notes. Finished dry and bitter. highibus (421), Mill Creek, Washington, USA Aug 8, 2009 Pours a beautifully hazy copper color with decent white head. Noticeably good lacing. Decent aroma of sweet malt and piney hopes. Medium body with a nice bite of hop finish danielcurtis81 (879), San Diego, California, USA Aug 8, 2009 12 oz bottle I brought back from Seattle. Pours a lighter golden brown with a small bubbles. It has a fairly small white head. Nose is earthy bitter hops. Flavors of lightly sugared grapefruit. Nice malt backing, cereal-ish. Turns more into earthy flavors in the middle and the hop bitterness fades a little more towards the end. Nice creamy texture with a medium bitterness through the finish. I nice IPA. SamGamgee (1396), Santa Cruz (La Selva), California, USA Jul 25, 2009 22oz bottle; contract brewed by New Belgium. Hazy gold with a thick, fluffy white head. Sweet malty aroma with some grassy hops. Overall flavor is chewy malt, fruity yeast and hop bitterness with just a light spicy, fruity hop flavor. Doughy and thick feel with high carbonation. Now I’m wondering if this is better from the actual brewery, as I didn’t notice it was contract-brewed until I was examining the bottle while drinking it. Aquilo (248), California, USA Jul 1, 2009 Light reddish blonde with a small foamy head and good lacing. nice lemon and honey aroma. Flavor is yeasty with some grassy hops. Just a hint of citron. This is an enjoyable and very drinkable IPA. Gregis (1132), Shawnee, Kansas, USA Jun 28, 2009 On tap at The Falling Rock Tap House, in Denver. Pours a hazy amber with a creamy beige head and sheeting lace. The nose is of grapefruit and caramel/pale malt. Medium-bodied and lightly grainy with a mildly bitter finish. Floral and citric with a solid pale malt backing, it has a pleasant lingering grapefruit bitterness in the aftertaste. This is a solid and tasty IPA. waolsen (1220), Littleton, Colorado, USA Jun 25, 2009 bottle. hazy orange pour with thin lasting white head and great lacing. malty aroma with piney hop aroma. light funkines, earthy hops, sweet malts. jredmond (1015), New Jersey, USA Jun 24, 2009 Bottle.
