beerbuzzmontreal (2850), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Oct 8, 2007 Pours a cloudy dark amber color with a thick, frothy offwhite head. Aroma of pine needles with green hops. Solid flavor of spicy, piney and green hops with a bitter finish. The body is light to medium with a creamy texture and gentle carbonation.
GardenGabe (63), Denver, Colorado, USA Jun 27, 2009 Pour is a hazy golden amber (12 SRM), Rocky head dies quickly leaving prodigious lacing. Smells of muskmelon, maple, grapefruit, pine, and ever so slightly wet cardboard. Taste lightly sweet, finishing with lots bitters. johndoughty (2005), cheslyn hay, West Midlands, England Jun 24, 2009 Bottle.Golden orange appearance.Hoppy,flowery and full bodied.Slightly smoked and very, very impressive. DalzAle (354), Eden Prairie, Minnesota, USA Jun 23, 2009 Bottle. Rich apricot colored pour, medium carbonation and a nice orange and hoppy aroma. Flavor was sweet marmalade citrus, then some mild malt and good bitter hops. Nice IPA, but not $9-10 a bottle good. Ober (872), Bommelerwaard, Netherlands Jun 15, 2009 A little hazy orange colored beer, with a lightbeige head. The aroma of several hops, with fruits like citrus and grapes. There is some caramel in the back. The taste is hop bitter, fruity like citrus with some orange. It’s dry and grassy. The aftertaste is very bitter with notes of sweet. NDbeerdrinker (160), Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA Jun 14, 2009 Pours a hazy amber orange with a medium sized cream colored head. Aroma is floral and citrus hops, also a little bit of pine. This is a well balanced beer. Good bitter hops up front followed up by an evening maltiness. Really enjoyed this one. Eructoblaster (1396), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada Jun 14, 2009 Bottle - Mondial de la Bière, Montréal. Cloudy amber body with a lasting off-white foamy head. Well balanced malty/hoppy aroma with flowery hints. Its sharp hoppy taste carries grapefruit and oaky notes. Alcohol is well hidden. Ends with a decent bitter finish. Very well done IPA. LooseCannon (811), Norfolk, Virginia, USA Jun 13, 2009 500ml bottle. Pours cloudy deep amber in color with full foamy tan head. Aroma sweet and floral hops. Taste citrus hops, bitter grapefruit and caramel with bitter grapefruit finish. buzzoven (270), Japan Jun 13, 2009 Very strong, bold beer without overdoing it. Well balanced and lively on the palate. Sure, it’s hoppy, but not overly challenging and certainly no one-dimensional show. Loved the murky orange golden colour.; was excited by the tantalizing citrus floral smell; and bowled over by the delicious taste. You can feel the love with this one, Joe.
