| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 31, 2009 tastes like a belgian style ale. can taste a little cascade hops but mostly cloves, banana. pretty dissappointing ale its by no means an ipa on any level, this is closer to a northwest tripel but not an ipa. jbrus (4863), Delft, Netherlands
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 7, 2009 Tap@Brewpub. Floral hops aroma. Cloudy, yellow/orange colour, off-white head, fair lace. Light sweet, pretty bitter, light floral notes, hoppy grassy finish. Biting my lips, maybe a bit thin. Balanced, refreshing, flavourful. riversideAK (2723), Shoreline, Washington, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 14, 2009 On tap at the brewpub, enjoyed with my girlfriend and lots of other seemingly cool folks sitting throughout the pub. My 234th IPA rate, still # 1, I-Chi-Ro! I-Chi-Ro! Nice aroma that reminded me a bit of a toned down Surly Furious. Hints of lime, grapefruit, and floral hops. Toasty caramel malt undertones. Poured orange-golden with a nice head and good lacing. Nice citrus tones, not harsh or astringent, but pleasantly fruity. Grapefruit, lemon, softer sweet caramel and toast. Lingering crisp citrus notes as opposed to resiny bitterness. Really nice drinking almost quenching juicy IPA. anders37 (4636), Malmö, Sweden
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 1, 2008 Draught @ the brewpub. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a small off-white ead. Has a malty pine hoppy aroma with some grapefruit hints. Malty hoppy bitter grapefruit flavor with some hints of pine needles. Long hoppy bitter finish with hints of grapefruit and a hoppy bitter aftertaste. Hawksfan17 (717), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 20, 2008 Pours a hazy gold orange with a white head. Citrus, hops and pine in the aroma. Bitter, pine, and maybe some peat in the flavor making for a bitter finish. Bier brauen (213), Bremerton, Washington, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jul 19, 2008 A little bit different than many IPAs. I could taste peach. The finish has a subtle earthiness to it. BlackDonald (1127), Boise, Idaho, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 17, 2008 One of my all time favorite IPAs in the NW style. Extremely well balanced, the hops are agressive, but not overpowering, always in balance with a moderate malt background keeping everything in check. Great lingering resiny aftertaste.
