| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Sep 2, 2009 Bottle. Hazy orange-copper with fluffy head. Aromas of caramel, grain, and pine. Flavors of caramel and grapefruit. Slightly metallic. Thin body doesn’t work well with the carbonation. rosenbergh (875), Helsinki, Finland
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 2, 2009 355 ml bottle. From the US (H). BBE AUG 09. Hazy dark amber colour with small tan head. Caramel sweetness and hoppy bitterness in aroma. Yeast, fruits, dry hoppy bitterness and some spices in flavour. Quite easy for an IPA. Imperial? No. But pretty enjoyable Ale anyway. jport4087 (78), Pennsylvania, USA

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 28, 2009 12 oz. bottle pours a cloudy ruby-amber color with oodles of off white head that leaves a sticky tight lacing. Aroma is of a sweet-spicy malt. Front palate is spicy yeast with a malty middle and finish of hops with an almost nut-like aftertaste. Easy to drink but not anything outstanding. asheft (1383), Marburg, Germany
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Aug 27, 2009 [bottle]
Slightly lemony toffee aroma with nice hops that are not necessarily American--not grapefruit/pine, but spicy/floral. Hazy bronze with a lacy, nearly white, thin cover. Spicy caramel malt with a blast of floral hops that are quite bitter, but a round bitterness--not sharp, that drops off, leaving a nutty, sherry-like flavour. A little tangy green apple note too. Medium body, medium carbonation, almost clean finish. Narnad (691), Wonder Lake, Illinois, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 21, 2009 A lightly hazed amber color with a very tall, bubbly, off-white head. An orange citrus note is the most dominate aroma, caramel malt, light biscuit and some sweet grape. Flavor has sweet caramel, the hop flavor trends toward a columbus hops citrus flavor- orange citrus, light spicy, very robust, a toasted malt, apple and grape sweetness round out the flavors. Solid mouth feel with the beer being of a moderate density and carbonation. Brew overall was pretty solid with it leaning to a sweeter citrus side of the IPA spectrum. ericandersnavy (1055), crossroads, Texas, USA

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Aug 18, 2009 Eh. Not bad. Amber pour with a small white head. A dash of citrusy hops in the aroma. Flavor is hoppy but mild for an IPA. Medium bodied. Not bad, but definitely needs more of a hop presence.
