brettpace (179), Northridge, California, USA Apr 5, 2007 Diddnt find this beer very enjoyable, and personally think it is overrated. No hop aroma, almost stale taste, better than your average beer, but not by much. hopscotch (5441), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Mar 3, 2007 Bottle... Cloudy orange ale with a small, creamy, off-white head. Very nice retention. The nose is of tea, clementine and very mild grapefruit. Citrusy, earthy flavor provides blasts of tea and grapefruit. Leans toward the bitter side of balance despite a solid malt profile of caramel and toffee. Medium to full-bodied with a milky mouthfeel and moderate carbonation. Lengthy, bitter, astringent finish. A shout goes out to Crosling for providing the bottle! rmussman (905), California, USA Mar 2, 2007 A very nice craft brew. Poured into a pint glass as my belgian glasses were dirty. Poured to frothy head. Aroma was somewhat weak with a hint of hops. Mouthfeel was smooth and pure. Flavor was sharply hoppy with a hint of fruits. elnadeau (786), Laguna Niguel, California, USA Jan 31, 2007 A drinkable IPA but seems to be trying to decide what it wants to be - west coast or english. Overall not that impressive. snoot (277), Anaheim, California, USA Dec 31, 2006 Pours a hazy orange, not much head to speak of. Decent lacing. Hoppy grapefruit aroma. Pretty citrus taste as well, but a good malt backbone that I wasn’t expecting. Very good. footbalm (1218), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA Dec 29, 2006 Bottle from liquidsolutions. I must of had a bad bottle as I do not get much of anything. There seemed to be a bit of a sour overtone here. Some hops are present but this went down the drain. trokini (1027), San Diego, California, USA Dec 21, 2006 Kind of a blend of the English IPA with the west coast version. Mostly citrus (grapefruit, orange), but mixed with a drier bitterness common with the English variety. More malt than expected. Clean finish. Overall, a decent beer. Saarlander (1577), Saarlouis, Germany Nov 27, 2006 A great IPA that is priced nice! Hazy Orange, with a nice lacy head. Hopped nice, but not overdone, Citrus, grapefruit, abit of pine, but more citrus than pine, great drinking brew, wish I could find it more often!
