JoeMcPhee (3466), Jackson Heights, New York, USA May 12, 2008 Tap at the brewpub. Deep amber beer. Aroma is awesome, bright orange/grapefruit citrus, tropical mango and even a bit of peachiness. All of those flavours come out nicely as well, playing off of a light pale malt base. A kiss of caramel sweetness. Moderate bitterness on the back with very low cohumulones, making it nice and smooth. Lingering mango and a faint kiss of pine. Really tasty IPA. Guinness4Duff (268), Tallahassee (and Poconos, PA), Florida, USA May 9, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark amber color with a thin tan head. Aroma is sweet malt, possibly caramel. Taste is a little bitter with a cloying sweetness and some noticeable citrus. Very drinkeable and not bad overall. MrChopin (56), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA May 9, 2008 Amber color, the nose was sweet with the usual IPA citrus. Taste was that of a wheat beer and IPA mix, more sweetness than expected. Also a little thinner than expected. I find it unique but no better than standard. biggcb (425), Harleysville, Pennsylvania, USA May 1, 2008 Bottle. Pours a standard amber color with a small white head. Subdued malt and hops in the aroma. Mild hops and some malt for the flavor. Balanced but nothing special. machfive55 (11), Mountville, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 28, 2008 This is a good east coast IPA, in that it is not over the top hops. It’s just a good balance with a strong hop presence that will not burn out your taste buds. You can get this all over the area and on tap at the Clip. I’ll have this over BMC any day at the ballpark.
