| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 11, 2010 Another winner I picked up at State Line Liquors in MD: Pours a muddy orange colour with a noticeable amount of sediment in it. Lots of carbonation. Right from the getgo, I get loads of foam but it doesn’t ruin the experience one bit. Full blown floral hops onthe nose. Fruity at the same time with a decent amount of citrus as well . Taste is astringent, yet firm and hop forward all the way. Nice beer! beerfest5 (240), Simsbury, Connecticut, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 16, 2009 in bottle @ GIBF, really nice IPA from a brewer that I am liking more and more. not overbearing, just the right amount of body and character, could use a little more citrus to combat the pine taste, but very nice.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 10, 2009 Bottle, brown pour, nice long-lasting off-white head. Definitely doesn’t look like most IPAs....a more brown look and sense to it. A piney scent is strong here....earthy IPA aromas. Slightly sweet, slightly bitter...not a huge hop blast, but a good balance of sweet, caramel-type notes and hoppy bite. This tastes different from most IPAs that I’ve had, but it’s quite good.
