3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20Draft. Hazy golden color, small but thick white head, solid lacing. Aroma ofgrass and light spice. Taste is grass, straw, hay. Nice.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
12oz bottle (chambered in the local piggly wiggly of HH, SC) - pours gold with small white head. Nose is wet herbs. Flavor adds grapefruit, citrus and cereal. Moderately bitter finish with metallic aftertaste. Expected more after having the DIPA version last night.

This beer isn't quite hopped up enough. Has interesting flavors but is malt heavy and seems to have caramel malt flavors that fight against the hops.

2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours a clear hidden orange on tap with thin off-white head that leaves moderate lacing. Aroma is slight citrus and floral hops, crappy pale lager like malt. Taste follows, slightly bitter finish and more of a pale ale malt. Decent, but nothing special.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
12 oz bottle in Highland Brewing pint glass.
Pours a hazy orange-golden with a modest amount of white head. Head has moderate retention and good lacing.
Good carbonation. Some nice citrusy hop notes paired with a solid malt background. But ...
While not flawed or imbalanced, this is too much of an "IPA light" in terms of flavor and, a bit, in its lean mouthfeel. For some, this should make it a highly drinkable IPA, at least on a hot day, but I was hoping for something richer and bolder.

UPDATED: MAY 7, 2013 Aromas of citrus fruit, flora, subtle nectarine, and some toast. Dry, bitter, well balanced. Light body, clean, crisp, refreshing, fluffy carbonation, with a quick, fresh, bitter finish.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
A golden IPA with a thick mocha head. In aroma, light caramel malt with floral hops, OK. In mouth, a good caramel malt with grassy British floral hops, light grapefruit pulp, decent.
3.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 13/20
Not terribly overwhelming for an ipa. This did not have the normal hoppy aroma or flavors characteristic of its name sake. Not bad, bit kinda soft.
2.1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle. Thin and bitter - but not in a good way. Pretty boring beer.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20
Clear yellow gold with white head. Citrus and hops on the nose. Same for the taste. Creamy feel leads to mild bitter finish.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Golden copper with a small white head. The aroma is citrusy with little malt. The flavor is similar but nothing amazing. Could use some more character.
