Beerded_one (1551), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 24, 2008 Bottle. Pours a light copper with a small white head. Aroma of light pine, floral hops, citrus and a hint of caramel. Flavor is pale malts, caramel, slight pine and citrus with a little bitterness
Headbanger (930), Aurora, Illinois, USA Jul 26, 2008 12oz bottle(courtesy of RSRIZZO)-Pours a golden copperish body with a nice small tight off white head. Aroma of hops and pine. Taste of the same with some malt thrown in. This medium bodied brew is a decent beer but I’m not a big fan of English style IPA. changeup45 (530), Orlando, Florida, USA Jul 26, 2008 Here’s an example of a decent session IPA but nothing more. Copper colored with a thick off-white head with some of it sticking around and nice lacing. There’s some piney hops, only mild bitterness and balanced by caramel malts which are most noticeable in the finish and aftertaste. Nothing complex or too exciting here and seemed a bit under-hopped for an IPA. Definitely not bad though. RSRIZZO (957), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Jul 18, 2008 Aroma is a sour malt scent with just a hint of hops. Color is a bright clear gold with very good carbonation and a thick head. Taste is hoppy and peppery. Starting with medium body it goes down crisp. Finish comes in with a little malt and a bold spicy hop flavor that ends with a pepper taste and a mellow bitterness. After taste is clean yet dry as the spicy taste builds a bit. This is a tasty, easy drinking brew and is a different take on an IPA. pumpmaster (256), Florida, USA Jul 15, 2008 12 ounce bottle purchased at Total Wine Fort Lauderdale, FL for $1.49 Good.
blankboy (2499), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jul 12, 2008 Bottle. Pours a clear bubbly orange-copper with an average size diminishing white head. Mild aroma of resiny hops, sweet malt and citrus fruit. Flavour follows the aroma with resiny hops, citrus fruit and sweet malt -- flavour could be a little hoppier initially, the hops are mainly in the finish. Decent bitter finish. Average bodied.
Doesn’t blow me away but still a good IPA.
