waolsen (1019), Littleton, Colorado, USA Jun 20, 2008 bottle. nice look red with foamy light tan colored head. caramel, floral aroma. funky earthiness. hints of coffee and nut but that might just be its funk which is coming from the hops. light caramel. citrus. dry hops prominent and dance on tongue in finish.
Lt_Dan (65), Greater Los Angeles Area, California, USA Oct 9, 2008 Pours a beautiful red with a fluffy tan head. I’d take a nap on it. Beautiful aromas coming from the Amarillo hops; also a whiff of caramel. Tastes magnificent. A burst of hops, some spicy sweetness, and some more hops. Very drinkable but some how packs a punch at 6%. Of note, more flavorful and lively on tap. shadey (1343), Rochester, New York, USA Oct 8, 2008 12oz bottle. Fresh. Pours a deep amber with plenty of bubbles and a spotty head of off-white creamy lace. Aroma is a spicy hops and a full caramel backbone. I have to admit I really enjoy the juicy nature of Green Flash’s IPAs. This is more full flavored and rounded but I’m not sure I like it as much. Beerded_one (1617), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 8, 2008 Bottle. Pours a copper/amber color with a white head. Aroma of piny and citrus hops with a hint of caramel. Flavor is piny and floral hops with grapefruit, citrus, and a touch of caramel sweetness. Medium body with a dry hoppy finish. lordeche (336), Bridgewater, Massachusetts, USA Oct 7, 2008 Dark red with reddish tan head. Loads of pine and citrus in the aroma with some maple. Flavor is nice and piney with a smooth caramel backbone and some tart grapefruit. Pretty damn good. AmEricanbrew (1009), Swamp Shreveport, Left Coast, Louisiana, USA Oct 5, 2008 Clear copper/red with a light tan head. Big piney hop aroma with ganja bud and sweet caramel. Medium body. Great hoppy pine forest and floral hop flavors riding a rich , sweet caramel malty base. Another tasty, hopped up amber ale ala Nugget Nectar.
