JPDIPSO (4865), Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA Mar 23, 2008 Golden, orange amber liquid with taller, somewhat fluffy, dark cream colored head. Sweet caramel and sugar coated hops aromas. Pine citrus, and apricots all seem to come into play. Unfortunately, nothing to original by today’s standards, but nothing wrong that I can find. Pine and grapefruit hit the palate running. Some caramel, toffee, pale malt and hint of alcohol in the background. More an APA in my book, but a fairly well balanced pale ale, no matter what continent it is coming from. The hops seem a touch too sharp at times, but a hopshead type brew that I find very little fault.
beernovice39 (241), South Carolina, USA Nov 9, 2009 Bomber that looks different from the pic here. Lots of piney smell here. Hoppy taste, bitter. Good stuff. blipp (1631), Newark, New Jersey, USA Nov 8, 2009 Draft. Pours clear gold with a thin white head. Floral hoppy aroma with a hint of sweetness. The flavor has floral hops, a hint of citrus, and a light sweetness. Not bad. Bitzybrew (28), New York, New York, USA Nov 7, 2009 A really great hoppy west coast IPA. Had this one on tap at Rattle n Hum in NYC. darn1207 (529), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Nov 5, 2009 bomber from total wine and more in atlanta. hazy gold pour with a good sized bubbly white head. citrus hops and caramel in the aroma. taste is resiny pine, grapefruit and floral mixed with caramel malt. good medium texture. long bitter finish with some spice to it. like this one. dmac (1422), Toms River, New Jersey, USA Nov 4, 2009 22 oz bomber from doubleo, thanks man. Poured a nice deep orange with an average bubbly bright white head. Initial aroma was pine and fresh juicey hops and that gives way to some honey topped bread and citrus notes. Mouthfeel is just slightly thinner then expected with average carbonation and a long lasting bitter aftertaste. Flavor is lots of citrus with strong grapefruit, floral hops and pine resin. Probably the best Moylans I have ever had. durhambeer (1187), Durham, USA Nov 1, 2009 Bottle from Sam’s. Pours Dark clear golden with foamy white head, but gets closer to a hazy amber at the bottom of the bottle. Nose of citrus, rind, tropical fruits, resin, and a bit of malt presence which comes out more on the taste. Wanted the taste to be a bit more spicy and crisp, but the malt got in the way a bit. Still a very solid IPA. Slick but thin palate. stobbe74 (662), Denmark Nov 1, 2009 Bottle, 22 fl. oz. Pours an unclear golden beer with an offwhite head. The aroma is malt, lots of hops (grass) and notes of caramel. The flavor is hops with grapefruit and grass. The palate is bitter. Overall a good bitterness and a little special. Leighton (234), New York, New York, USA Oct 28, 2009 Very solid. Had some on tap at Rattle n Hum in NYC. Nice balance between the hops and malts. The hops are certainly present but not overpowering. Pretty smooth finish, although bitter. Nice beer.
