3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 sawbuck (130) - Round Lake, Illinois, USA - NOV 4, 2012Nice aroma of fresh hops with citrusy overtones. Nice orange/gold apprearence. Hops, with citrus and spic are first in taste..but then quickly followed by sweet malt. Finishess wtih very mild bitterness...and finishes quickly...not much lingering aftertaste. Very dinkable IPA for those not looking for too much hoppy/bitter flavor....hard core hop heads will be disapointed.

Une bière orangée. Un col trop propre. Un nez très près du pamplemousse et doucement habité par des aspirations florales. Des données houblonnées qui manquent cependant de définition et/ou d’expression. Des malts caramélisés qui émettent des signes d’une neutralité : je ne sais pas s’ils veulent véritablement se dévoiler ou s’ils sont confinés volontairement dans le silence. Un goût fabriqué pour plaire à tous les palais. Les houblons et les malts proposent des saveurs facilement aimables. Rien de véritablement amer ni rien de véritablement sucré. Un corps moyen-mince. Un pétillement ajusté pour plaire. Une texture légèrement huileuse. Une finale dotée d’une amertume qui caresse mon palais : quelques fleurs qui s’accrochent et qui s’en vont rapidement. Une IPA correctement exécutée qui a comme seul défaut d’être d’une autre époque.

On tap at Tap42. Pours a golden yellow with a white head an aroma of fruits and grapefruit. Taste is of lots of fruits, some hops but overall unpleasant and not very flavorful.

In a huge pilsner glass at Reagan Airport while waiting for a flight. Pours a deep clear golden with average white head. Aroma is fruity and piney but not floral hopped. Taste is an odd sweet spice and apple mix up. Odd to call this an IPA. Lagery malt finish but not old.

On tap at Duffy’s in Port St. Lucie. Pours a chopper orange with a white head. Aroma has earthy pine and some fruit, some citrus. Taste is of sweet fruit, some caramel and pine. Medium body with some pleasant depth. A solid "east coast" style IPA, with some nice flavor. A bit amazed I had not reviewed before ...

A great IPA. Probably the best standard IPA out there. You’ll have a hard time finding anything as solid, dependable, and enjoyable without tapping into specialty brews and true microbrews. Punches well above its weight class in terms of price.
