skoisirius (486), Seattle, Washington, USA Aug 23, 2008 <b>On tap at the brewery.</b> For whatever reasons, I just wasn’t into this much. Maybe it was the lacking IPA body from being 4% ABV, or possibly it was a bit too malty and not hoppy enough, but whatever it was, I didn’t dig it much. Can pass for an APA, but it is definitely not an IPA. Slight spice not was nice though! Fairly carbonated and caramely as well. Drinkable, just not up to standards.
SuperDave70 (929), Beautiful Sunny Mesa, Arizona, USA Nov 27, 2008 Light amber pour with a small foamy head. Pine hops and toasty caramel malt in the aroma and flavor. Light and well carbonated on the palate. Not a bad brew, just not a lot going on in it. I would say this is closer to a middle of the road APA than an IPA. hopscotch (4678), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Oct 8, 2008 Bottle… Clear, light amber ale with a small, creamy, white head. Good retention. Earthy, resiny aroma provides notes of sweaty socks, leather and grapefruit. Light to medium-bodied with middling carbonation. Perfectly-balanced flavor, but nondescript and thin. Crisp, lightly bitter finish. <b>Bottle provided by Douglas88!</b> IrishBoy (2211), Bakersfield, California, USA Oct 2, 2008 12 oz bottle from Douglas88; Nose of floral and [iney hops with some light caramel and vanilla notes tossed in; clear copper with a medium beige head that laced lightly; flavor was light bitterness, pine, and some caramel; nice light IPA! unclemike (422), Ft. Riley, Kansas, USA Aug 14, 2008 Slightly flowery and malty aroma Dark amber color,small off white head that faded slowly leaving a small amount of lace behind This is only 4%? I could stand this as my session beer.
