greggbevan (2), USA does not count | 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Aug 28, 2009 Great beer from Lagunitas, one of their best seasonals. Not seen it on tap yet but great in the bottle. Just the right hoppiness, not over the top. Very tasty. Not quite a session beer but you could have a few. carruthm (1125), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Aug 28, 2009 On tap at Shultzy’s, darkish golden color with a small head, the aroma was lightly hoppy and sweet, cereal and caramel notes. Taste was also lightly sweet, very smooth palate. Feels more like an amber, than an indian, but whatever, its good. Gachupines (291), USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 27, 2009 Appearance is golden with a white head which lingers. Aroma is hops with a little bit of citrus. Flavor is also mostly hops, without being overpowering. A little sweet in the finish, but overall very pleasant, drinkable IPA.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 21, 2009 My 100th IPA. 35,5cl bottle @ VinensVerden, Odense. Pours unclear golden with a fine creamy white head and lacings. Nose is sweet malty and hoppy. Citrus and caramel. Smooth and crisp. A bit of alcohol tickling the tongue. Again a quite malty dominated IPA from Lagunitas. A bit of peach, bread and yeast. Fine and tasty. Pailhead (2587), Allen Park, Michigan, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Aug 19, 2009 Updated: Aug 20, 2009Bottle: The aroma is slightly peachy along with citrus hops and faint caramel. It pours a transparent amber with a small white head. The flavor starts moderately peachy with some sweet orange notes. The finish has very mild citrus hops. Medium bodied with mild soft carbonation. savnac (421), Palmer, Alaska, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 17, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours a hazy gold with a fluffy white head that leaves a little bit of lacing. Citrus and floral aroma with some sweet bubblegum mixed it. The flavor is mostly sweet malt and caramel, the bitterness is there but not what I expected from the aroma. Medium body with average carbonation and a creamy mouth feel. This is a good beer but I would classify this more as an American Pale, I’ve had Pales that had more hop flavor and bitterness. Very good and drinkable though. Delirium (497), Santa Cruz, California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 16, 2009 Bottle. Pours golden, with a moderate foamy white head. Aroma is a nice mix of malt and resiny sweet hops (grapefruit and orange). Flavor is resiny citrus hops (but actual fresh orange flavor, not just the citrus hop bitterness), good deal of malt backing, some yeast spiciness. Excellent: solid IPA (leaning towards double IPA), plus enough different to keep it interesting. pintbypint (1006), Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 15, 2009 12 fl oz brown bottle. Golden colour, a one finger sized head of white foam on top. Good lacing. Great citrus aroma, orange and grapefruit up front, some sweetness. Some fruitiness in the mouth, juicy, bitter orange, dash of lemon, balanced malt. Dry finish, moderate citrusy hop aftertaste. Medium body with average ammount of carbonation, good drinkability. I may have liked this more than most, but I fell no real need to apoligize for it. Or... did I just... err, I’ll just have another...
