| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | May 14, 2009 Philly Brewing started this one during the hop crisis and was not as good as it is now. If you have not had one recently, try again. Nice amber maltyness and good kick of bitter with a slightly lingering hoppyness that keeps you wanting more.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Jun 1, 2008 Classic malty version of the IPA style. Nice easy drinking, but hoppy enough for your West Coast IPA style fans. Very good for a introduction of the style to novices, all around good beer from the Bartons. Cheers to my hometown brewery.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 21, 2009 Bottle Pours a hazy golden with a small off white head, it has some floater and such. The head lasts well, and laces rather nicely. Has a good aroma of sweetness and hops. I get pine, oranges, and a touch of floral. Has a good carbonation. The flavor is very good. Smooth bitterness, and fairly hoppy. Has an oily texture. A medium body. A real solid finish with a good lasting bitter aftertaste. I was not expecting this beer to be as tasty as it was but this is a winner. I love an IPA and this one does not dissapoint. otismulligan (34), Yardley, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 1, 2008 My second purchase of phila brew co. So kind of had a good idea of what to expect, as I loved the Kenzinger. And all in all I wasn’t let down.
Very heady pour, nice golden murky color. Mild subtle hoppy flavor. Alcohol content is a nice bonus.
Although I am a fan of PBC, I have found that there is some consistency misiing in the overall tastse in a case. Yet, For the price, I can’t pass it bye. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 13, 2008 Bottle. Deep coppery pour with 1-finger off-white head. Nose is piney hops, caramel malt, some fruit, pineapple. The palate is fairly rich, around medium in heft, with a solid pineapple/pine needle hop flavor matched by decent amounts of malt. This one isn’t a world-beater, but it is not too shabby at all. agl108 (503), Manayunk, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 12, 2008 On cask at Teresa’s Next Door. Poured clear, light amber with creamy bone white head that left solid rings of lace. Started with notes of caramel then finished with a moderate citrus profile. Respectable hop/malt balance. Pretty toned down for an IPA, but very sessionable. Better than its rating to date. jcwattsrugger (5260), Florida and, New Jersey, USA
