Pours copper with a white head. Smells citrussy and sweet. Tastes citrussy and peppery with a lightly bitter finish.

Bottle that was never poured in a glass, drinks like a lame caramel bodied ipa with not enough IBU’s to put forth anything i enjoy in an IPA. Simple and sessionable i suppose.

Bottle. Pours a hazy amber with a modest off-white head. Aroma of strawberries, candied fruits, citrus hops, and caramel malt. Nice, fresh grapefruit hops in the body with good crisp caramel malt for balancing. Bitter, clean grapefruit aftertaste. A very good IPA. Can’t really find this stuff anymore...too bad.

Hazy dark gold color with a small fluffy head. Bitter, light citrusy hop flavor. Faint malty sweetness. Medium bodied with good carbonation. Nothing too out of the box.

12 oz bottle. Pours a hazy orangish gold wth small slightly off white head. Crisp citrus hoppy nose. Light maltiness with a somewhat bitter citrus hop finish. Medium body. Not bad, though I’d echo the comments that it lacks the punchiness of good IPAs.

(Bottle). Citrus aroma. Cloudy yellow-orange color, with off-white head. Flavor is refreshingly citrus, mostly orange and lemon. Limited bitterness. Pleasant, but very mild for an IPA.

on tap at Magic Hat- rating based upon a few samples. Almost clear golden in color with orange highlights. Aroma: mild to moderate orange/grapefruit with a very light touch of malt in the back. Taste is a light to moderate amount of citrus hops, on a light to medium pale malt body. Very straightforward and easy drinking for an IPA. Clean flavor profile. Bitterness is light to moderate in the finish. Not bad for an APA but not as assertive as I like IPA’s.

[1604-20080816] 355mL bottle. Light sweet fruit aroma has a bit of hops and grains. Clear, light orange brown body with a medium-lasting creamy off-white head. Bit of sweet fruit hops and a bit of hoppy bitterness in the flavour. Medium body. Not bad, fairly fresh.
