| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 21, 2008 Murky orange color. A lot of bitter grapefruit and piney hops up front with some caramel maltiness in the middle then bitter, dry and hoppy in the finish. Nice amount of hops but also quite a bit of malts to make this IPA well balanced. It’s expensive but also quite good. Vac (2389), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 19, 2008 Bottle from Julio’s Liqour in Mass. Pours with an orange-amber body topped by a thin to medium thick, quickly disappearing head with some lacing. It’s sweet and malty with lots of grapefruity and piney hop notes as well as a peachy fruity note. Medium bodied, smooth and slightly warming down deep. aru (105), Smørum, Denmark
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 17, 2008 Copper colored with light orange head. A lot of bitterness dominates the impression, but it misses something more... alexsdad06 (1080), Ohio, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 16, 2008 1 pt 9 oz. bottle. Pours a slightly hazy orange amber color with a medium sized creamy off white head. The aroma is piney citrus hops, modeerately sweet malt, spicy (pepper), and slight herbs. The flavor is a nice balance of caramel malt and citrus hops up front. Midway the pepper starts to come through. This leads into a more general bitterness in the finish. Medium bodied, pretty good. It had me until the finish where it lost just a little. msante79 (814), Orland Hills, Illinois, USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 5, 2008 Bottle pours a crystal clear orange amber with a really nice head with impressive clingy lace. The aroma is grapefruit peel, early season pine, hop resin, and some sweetness trying to surface. The flavor is melon, peach, grapefruit, caramel, fresh bread, and all very coordinated and well played. The palate is distinctive, cleansing and rich. Overall, pretty nice.
