Nothing stands out at all and it ends up being a mediocre IPA in my books. Piney and grassy hops rule this beer. A nice little bitterness to it but in the end it just falls apart. Won’t be wasting my money on this one again when they’re are just so many better IPAs out there. Maybe I got a bad bottle after seeing all the good reviews.

It’s like licking a flower and a pine tree at the same time. Bitter sweet. I love this beer more than beer.

Was surprised by this brew. Light Yellow gold. Clear. Smells lemmony and a bit hoppy. Tastes citrus with hops. Very good.

Tap at New Belgium Brewpub at DIA. Pours a clear orange with a thin white head. Good fresh citrus, pine and grapefruit aroma. Taste is clean and crisp malt with a well balanced hop bitterness. Good stuff.

beerisgoodforu (641) - Nørresundby, DENMARK - JAN 31, 2012
Bottle. Pours a clear orange color with a white head. Aroma is of pine, citrus, orange, grassy and floral hoppy notes. The flavor follows the nose with pine, orange, tangerine, grassy, floral and citrussy hoppy notes along with some sweet malt flavors. The body is medium with a dry mouthfeel. Overall a soild IPA.

Smurf2055 (120) - Seattle, Washington, USA - JAN 29, 2012
Pours orange with about half a finger of of white head. Smell is very powerful pine. Taste is bitter, and not as big a body as I would like. It’s decent, but nothing great. Could be better balanced.
