3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
Draught at their Logan Airport Taproom. Nice American hop aroma, lots of pine, citrus, and grass. Light malt, but nice balance to show off the hops. A bit too gassy, but decent overall.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours a copper color with a thick white head. Aroma has notes of citrus and bread. Taste is a bit light for an IPA. Some sweetness and raisin notes in the front and a citrusy hop kick in the back. Light-bodied with a long finish. An average IPA.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
The only one that I was actually disappointed in during my trip. Maybe because I had higher expectations for it. On tap @ Chateau and 99 (yes I gave it a couple fair shots). Pour was gold with a rather unimpressive white head with no lace. Aroma is light citrus and grass. Flavor shows the same with some light caramel, but primarily a sweet grainy malt presence. Overall body was light to moderate and finished lightly bitter. Not what I was expecting.

On tap. The Putney Inn Restaraunt. VT. Deep golden pour with a nice head. Some nice flavor. Refreshing dry hoppy with some grassy tones. Glad to see this in most New England bars!
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
From a 12 oz into a jar. Pours greenish yellow with a couple inches of head. Can’t remember the lacing. Aroma is of pine and lemon. Mouthfeel is kinda light for an IPA and seltzerey. Taste is of pine mainly with some various hop flavors thrown in. Meh. This is easily forgettable. I wouldn’t get it with so many other IPAs of better quality at the same price.

Draft in a shaker. Pours bright orangeish. An average IPA with some hops in the aroma, but too strong on the malty flavors. Alright if it’s the best beer that’s on tap.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Purchased in Nashville on my trip there. Best by 08/15/10 printed on neck of the bottle. Pours a clean golden colour with a big white creamy head that stays a while and leaves a lot of lace. Beautiful Cascade hop nose. Crisp and dry mouthfeel. Not as bitter as expected, but the hop is on the tasty side. I would call this an easy-drinking hot summer day IPA.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
12 oz. golden pour from bottle. Faint smell of citrus. A rather watered down version of an IPA. Not bad, just average.
