3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle - Pours amber with a thin light tan head. Nose is real dry, with biscuity malt, marmalade, and pine resin. Taste has dry bready malt, herbal hops, pine and citrus rind, and a bitter finish. Medium bodied and fluffy. Okay, but a little to bitter on the finish for my tastes.

12oz bottle. Hazy unfiltered orange-tan body. Foamy off-white head. Strikes me as a classic American IPA..big bold NW hops tones, rich body, crystal malt tones. Orange, grapefruit, mango..lots of hop depth. Solid offering.

On tap at Pracna on Main, Minneapolis. Bright amber colour with a gentle carbonation. Very appetising hoppy smells, pine, hint of citrus, more floral and pine in a long bitter finish. Went well with food, somehow the hoppiness got enhanced. A pretty good effort.

Golden and lemony, has a nice tartness but not as hoppy as advertised. Would have another though.

Pour is golden amber with a very light haze and no head. Lemon and vanilla aroma. Starts off lemon sweet, shifts to a pine bitterness with vanilla maltiness, finishes with resiny sweetness with a metallic note that is odd. Medium light body, light carbonation.

On tap. Nice reddish gold pour. Aroma hits most of the hop spectrum, from citrus to pine. The flavor centers a little more heavily on the pine/resin side, with a solid malt backbone to balance things out. All around a very solid IPA, and probably my favorite offering yet from Lift Bridge.

Pours orange with a white head. Aroma is citrus and light malt. Flavor is smooth citrus and malty.

12 ounce bottle. Thanks Jeffrey! Pours a golden orange with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma of citrus, florals, and malt. Taste is grapefruit, oranges, lemons, florals, pine, and caramel malt. Pretty good.

Bottle. Pours a mostly clear copper with a little white head. Aroma is citrusy hops with a taste that matches. Nice citrus and floral hops up front followed by a little well-placed bitterness. Greatly exceeded my expectations.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
UPDATED: JAN 27, 2013 Aroma is light and citrus filled. Appearance is golden rod and low off white head. Taste has a bitter characteristic to it. Lots of pine coming in. Palate is low to medium body. Overall, not bad it competes with the locals and some of the big boy IPA’s. I like it a lot.
