Aroma of malt and peppery hops. Sharp taste of floral hops, citrus and pepper with a malty undertone in the finish. emerica56 (579), Bristol, Rhode Island, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 29, 2009 Pours a cloudy orange amber color with a thin white head and some spots along the sides of the glass. The nose is nice and floral with an interesting malty finish. The initial sip is nice and bitter with thin body finish. it is full of lemon zest and malt. Overall it has a great flavor with just the right amount of carbonation. OSLO (826), Perth, Australia
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | May 24, 2009 [Can] Pours hazy reddish-amber with a small khaki head. Aroma is grassy hops, sweetness, notes of lime and green beans. Taste is kind of strange--biscuity off-flavors, somewhat sweet and syrupy, light bitterness, alcohol, something vegetal, and a lot of malt when it warms. Good mouthfeel, smooth, and has a long finish. I actually enjoyed this quite a bit more when it warmed and became very malt dominant. Before that, the vegetal qualities were not appealing.

Aroma largely of iced tea and sweet malt. Flavor of still more iced tea but very malty too with some grassy hops. I warmed up a little to this one, although it could still use some improvement.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 20, 2009 Tap at Willimantic Brewing. Aroma of rich, nutty malt with earthy and floral hops, just a touch of citrus. Flavor is sweet and malty, but rich malty, not syrupy malty, with adequate support from the hops, more apparently citrus now. Pretty good. PJClarke (624), London, Greater London, England
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | May 10, 2009 Dull orange with a nice, pure and lasting white head.
Very fuddy cereals, sweet and with a surprising lack of hops.
Fuddy oats and barley. Lots of peach and hints of light fruity yeast.
Thin and refreshing to match its light summery flavours.
Not sure if I would call it an IPA but it is a pure and innocent brew. BroSpud (597), , Massachusetts, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Apr 27, 2009 12oz can. Found this to be an average IPA which is surprising as it comes in a can. For some reason I tend to associate cans with swill. This can, however, contains a pretty tasty beverage. Did find that it was a bit heavy on the sediment so careful on the pour and you probably don’t want to drink this one straight from the can. crazyvin (1250), New York, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 27, 2009 on tap @ gingerman. A nice copper hue with a frothy white head that had mild retention. Aroma was balanced between bittiering hops and caramel but also had a somewhat smoke like quality to it. Finish was velvetly smooth yet crisp. nice balanced IPA.
