Oct 6, 2007 Bottle from capone’s. Reddish-amber color with a medium head. Aroma is dominated by some nice grapefruit-citrusy hops and strong caramel malts. Flavor is hoppy, but has too much caramel malt to be really good. Decent feel. Tone down the malt a tad, and this would be even better.

Apr 3, 2009 12oz bottle shared by BOLTZ7555 – thanks J! Pours slightly hazy amber with a half finger light tan head. The nose is sweet caramel and floral hops. The taste is toffee and earthy hops with some sweet citrus in the finish. Medium bodied – an OK IPA. A bit subdued.

Apr 20, 2007 Bottle. Thanks to TomDecapolis. Deep orange body with a nice size head. Citrusy aroma - grassy. Flavor is sweetened with hops, citrus, and a mild bitterness to it. A little syrupy but decently balanced. Finishes decent.

Mar 4, 2007 Gifted by JoMcPhee, gracious. 12 oz bottle poured into goblet glass. Pours dark reddish amber with a small head. Aroma is strong with oily, juicy, grapefruit hoppiness. Slight caramel malt sweetness. As it warms strong candy sugar sweetness comes out. Taste is a bit watered down but still strong on the hop. A medium bitterness at the end. A slight sweet aftertaste. A bit thin and watery body. A nice hoppy sensation with a bit too watey flavor.

Aug 11, 2007 Bottle. Pour is a reddish brown and aromas are definitely Cascade hops based. Pine and grapefruit dominate, but there is a bit of a malt sweetness underlying. Flavor shows an unbalance... there is not enough of a malt structure to support that much hops and it comes off as lopsided. Then again, if you want a hops drink, this is for you.

Jun 5, 2008 A very unimpressive IPA, just about brown in color with an off-white head, no lacing left behind, the aroma was a little sweet with some caramel & chocolate hints, the body was light & watery, only a subtle flavor of hops was present, they could have taken some of the hops of their Pils & added it to this beer, it could definitely use a lot more, the finish was bready & only slightly dry & bitter, definitely a poor IPA

Aug 8, 2008 Bottle, best by 10/2008. Pours a dark brown/amber with a small white head. Aroma of bitter hops and light sweet malt. Flavor is pretty similar- nice light sweet malt (quite malty for an IPA) and light, slightly piney hops. Not so hoppy for an IPA per se; it flirts with being an amber ale, ASA, and IPA. Regardless of classification, it was a decent brew and pretty tasty.
