3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
On-Tap at the Brewery Sparks NV, Pours out a amber topped with a little head. A great hop aroma (maybe dry hopped). Great tast of hops and a nice bitter finish. One of there best brews. I would have to vote.

A nice IPA. Rather generic, but nice hop flavors of pine and grapefruit as well as a little bit of pepper with a little sour/sweet malt.

Draft. This beer seems underrated to me. Pours with a golden to copper color. Aromas of hops, a hint of fruit and flowers. Flavors of grapefruit, citrus and a hoppy bitterness. Very clean tasting, not a big West Coast IPA, rather well balanced.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
GABF 2005: poured yellow/orange with nice sized off white head. Not a lot of aroma-mild hops. Mild sweet flavor and fairly thin body. Drinkable.

3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Tap @ brewery. Clear, lightish amber color with an offwhite head--a few small splotches of lace. Aroma is honey, floral, fruity--touch of citrus--and yeasty like dough. Mouth is medium with lots of light, foamy carbonation, lightly dry. Flavor is lightly honeyed, malts are overpowered by a lightly piny bitter, with a touch of grapefruit and a fair amount of sour sweat. Finish is mostly pine with a touch of grapefruit, and sour sweat early on. Alc rating is currently 6.5%. A rather pleasant IPA; easy drinking, not syrupy or totally unbalanced. A bit mild, but slightly more complex than the typical IPA.

3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
On-Tap at the Brewery (There for the 04’ Reno Air Races)
Brown ruby color with a light head & moderate lacing. The aroma is citrusy and dought with a light fruity hop character. The flavor is a touch bitter & balanced. Finishes brief & caramelly. Not an assertive IPA but decent.
