thirdeye11 (416), Texas, USA Sep 19, 2009 ( 12oz bottle) Pours orange with nice head and good lacing. Nose of chlorine (I seem to smell this in all Ithaca brews), crisp citrus hops. Taste is rye, bitter hops, but I hate the finish. It needs some malt backbone to support the bitter hops. thenick (742), North Bellmore, New York, USA Sep 13, 2009 Bottle. Pours a reddish-orange color with an off-white head. Aroma is malt and citrus hops, completely. Flavor is citrus up front, with hops, and a caramel/malt sweetness at the back-end. Alcohol pretty detectable, despite only 7% ABV, and the beer was pretty drinkable throughout. Not bad....Not bad at all. blutt59 (2045), Dallas, Texas, USA Sep 12, 2009 bottle, thanks to thirdeye11, reddish orange pour with a malty citirc aroma, flavors of bitter oranges and caramel, lighter finish Swalden28 (1442), McKinney, Texas, USA Sep 12, 2009 Bottle thanks to thirdeye11. Pours a very nice amber with beige head. Aroma of nice citrus hops and malt. Flavor is tasty, light malt, pine, citrus. Mouth feel is light body, watery, low-medium carbonation. Overall, not bad but had a weak palate. mesperon (133), Jersey City, New Jersey, USA Sep 10, 2009 Nice IPA. Well-showcased cascade in the flavor and the nose. The idea of the red ale doesn’t add much. Tastes like a typical IPA. Much more hops on the tongue than the nose. Slightly sweet malt. ericandersnavy (1039), crossroads, Texas, USA Sep 9, 2009 bottle thanks to thirdeye11. poured amber with an off white soapy head. aroma of caramel, pine, and floral hops with the flavor being almost identical. light body. Cavie (1318), Fort Worth, Texas, USA Sep 4, 2009 Bottle courtesy of thirdeye11. Clear red orange pour. Big hops on the smell. Also a fair mix of sweet red scents. Smooth upfront with almost a coffee taste? Interesting. Almost no hop taste with the large aroma. Mainly malty and sour taste. BMan1113VR (2758), Los Angeles (and Dallas), Texas, USA Sep 4, 2009 Bottle thanks to thirdeye11. Pours with a hazed brown body and an off-white head. Aroma of pine and citrus hops with a good amount of caramel malt backing. Taste is pine like cascade and nice malty caramel. Light bubbles.
