3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20Bottle in nj. Light copper with frothy white foam. Nice lacing. Nice hoppy taste. Thought it could use a little less malty taste. Long lasting sticks to your tongue bitterness. Glad I got the chance to try it.

Flaske: Orange klar øl med et stort skumhoved. Duften er citrus og en smule malt. Lidt for accentueret. Smagen er lækker men igen er kattepissen en tand for dominerende. Mundfylden bliver en lille tand for klæg i en ellers udmærket øl.

Bière achetée dans un petit Deli de la 9ème à Manhattan, à la hauteur de la 42ème... Belle couleur ambrée, translucide, avec une mousse généreuse. Nez très puissant de houblons, de sucre d’orge, de pamplemousse et d’alcool. Quelques respirations de ces effluves et nous sommes déjà dans l’ambiance. En bouche, les saveurs sont explosives. Ce n’est pas une petite bière pour monsieur et madame tout le monde. L’acidité semblable à celle du pamplemousse est ma foi sublime, bien qu’elle déplaira aux amateurs moins chevronnés. Le goût de sucre d’orge puissant est à noter. Il demeure sur le palais de longues secondes, et cette amertume est bien équilibrée. Ni trop puissante ni trop légère. Mélange parfait du houblon, du sucre et de l’acidité. J’ai adoré ce produit, que je ne pourrai pas me procurer avant mon prochain séjour aux États-Unis, j’en ai bien peur... Cheers!

3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
First of many beers I brought back from a recent trip to NYC. Paired it with a couple of Mexican grocery store tacos. Pours a clear auburn with a fairly ample white head. Smells a bit medicinal, and I don’t mean that pejoratively. Flavor is of a sweet pine with a bitter finish that could be rounded out a little better. Overall a good beer, but I wouldn’t waste energy carrying it across the country when so many great fresh IPA’s are available at home. Bottle - Bowery Whole Foods - New York, NY

Tap. Pretty good overall, but not as good as the description suggested. I was hoping for more citrus and grapefruit taste. It was there, but very mild. This wasn’t too bitter overall and was very drinkable. Pretty good overal.
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
Excellent! The aroma is great with lots of citrus, stone fruit notes, grapefruit, and a subtle pine note. Taste is citrus, stone fruit, piney and an earthy bitterness that is really well balanced. Finishes crisp and clean.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Hazy grapefruit orange color with a grapefruit aroma. Doesn’t have the citrusy aromas like other IPA’s.

Fra flaske på CBC mai-13: Ved et lykketreff kom vi tidlig til FW sin stand, og deres tre øl ble referanseøl for resten av dagen. Uklar oranjse med fint skum. Aroma og smak preget av deres generøs omgang med humler, her er det furunål, grapefrukt og andre citrusfrukter, alt flott balansert med det som må være en meget kompetent maltoppskrift. Håper Cardinal tar inn denne og de andre fra FW.
