Draft. Pours amber orange with an off white head. Floral hoppy aroma with lighter citric and herbal notes. The flavor is well balanced, with floral and herbal hops, and toasty and sweet malty notes. Pretty good.

jhp40219 (147) - Louisville, Kentucky, USA - MAY 26, 2013
Pours a dark orange with a decent white head that fades quickly but leaves lots of sticky lacing. Nice fruity aroma of grapefruit, citrus, caramel, wheat and pine. Taste is big on the malts up front with a bit of grapefruit, caramel, and citrus coming in behind it. Somewhat long finish that leaves a bit of bitterness and malts in the aftertaste. Pretty heavy and filling. Taste is more along the lines of a DIPA or IIPA. Medium bodied, oily texture, average carbonation. Tasty and enjoyable. Not the best, far from the worst, middle of the road IPA.

SlovakSniper (2139) - Candiac, Quebec, CANADA - MAY 26, 2013
Une bière orangée qui supporte un petit col mousseux qui s’éteint avec une certaine rapidité. Un nez peu compliqué qui s’articule autour des houblons américains et de malts légèrement caramélisés. Sur les papilles, des saveurs amères d’orange et de pamplemousse avec des notes franches d’épinettes et, plus largement, de fleurs. Une touche d’épices en deuxième moitié de dégustation. Je me demande si cette représentation est le résultat de la levure ou des houblons. En bouche, un corps de moyenne densité appréciable par ses bulles franches et sa texture légèrement huileuse. Une finale moyennement intense mais assez longue sur les traces peu évidentes de fruits et de résine.

TreborWhip (357) - Reading, Pennsylvania, USA - MAY 26, 2013
Bottle pours amber with nice tan head. Light citrusy aroma. Flavor is all metallic (copper, like sucking on an old penny). Did not care for this at all. In fairness, this bottle was aged about 18 months which perhaps changed the original flavors, etc.

Gorm (109) - sandnes, NORWAY - MAY 25, 2013
Fruktig duft. Flott lys gylle farve med høyt hvitt skum som raskt forsviner. Her er mye smak av hume og noe citrusfrukter. Vimonopolet.

Pours a golden beer with a good white head. Smells fruity. I think citrus. Love the taste. Great balance. Lovely bitter finish. Palate fits perfectly with this beer.

Uhlen (173) - Trondheim, NORWAY - MAY 18, 2013
Dark golden pour, with a huge white head that clings to the glass. Aroma is sweet honey and caramelly, with some citrusy hoppy notes. Taste is pretty barn-like. Sweet, caramelly and hoppy. Rich mouthfeel, for a IPA.

ccex (803) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - MAY 17, 2013
12 oz. bottle pours a hazy orange/amber with medium fluffy white head. Aroma is full of citrus and piney hops, with lots of caramel malts for balance. Taste is initially bitter, sweet in the middle, with a long dry finish. The bitterness comes out more as it warms up. Medium body with average carbonation and a sticky mouthfeel. A decent balanced and drinkable IPA.
