beerhugger (541), Oshawa, Ontario, Canada Mar 27, 2005 Rich dark amber coloured beer with nice grapefruit hops. Very smooth and easy drinking with a nice slightly bitter lingering finish. Great session ale. mkobes (2103), paramus, New Jersey, USA Dec 12, 2004 Thanks to Eda. Golden brown in color and clear. Little hops in the flavor and some in the aroma too. Caramel note. Fisnish is dry. Drinkable. MaiBockAddict (1499), Good Beer Bar Deprived, New Jersey, USA Dec 11, 2004 Thanks to EDA...I think. Golden brown and clear. Some hops in flavor and aroma as expected. Slight carmel. Low malt. Dry finish. Overshadowed by lots of great beer this night... brewblackhole (1367), Muskego, Wisconsin, USA Nov 16, 2004 soft but distinct hop aroma, maltiness and hops seemed to balance nicely in the taste, but not hoppy enough to be classified among the best IPA’s howie (549), DeForest, Wisconsin, USA Oct 25, 2004 Updated: Dec 8, 2005Another nice surprise! Huge American hop aroma. Lasting, creamy head. A good juicy malt backbone, reasonably stout palate, very well balanced. Not overly bittered, just tons of aroma hops in here. Recommended! HumuloneRed (750), Portland, Oregon, USA Oct 12, 2004 Pours a clear copper color with a nice rocky head and thick lacing. Nose of apricots, cherry, citrus, pine. Very balanced malty/fruity flavors with a nice bitter hop finish. Very nice IPA. jeffrobadger (7), Madison, Wisconsin, USA does not count Oct 8, 2004 A yellow copper color with decent head. Aromas of citrus and hops, very inviting and makes one want to taste the beer. But when I took a drink I was overwhelmed by bitterness and the fruity, citrus smell was lost to my taste buds. Not quite balanced enough for my taste, but not a bad beer. However, I probably wont buy this again. Crosling (1854), Loveland, Colorado, USA Oct 4, 2004 Updated: Jan 27, 2005Dark Orange. Delicate, vibrant, stunning nose of coffee beans, pine, apricot, resin, grapefruit, oil and cherries. Raw, cutting, glorious and copious amount of hops completely takeover this brew. Toasty, fruity, vanilla, caramel like malts fit in with the massive piney, citrusy, sprucey and woody hop profile. Damn, what a beer!
