2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20 Magjayran (1379) - Durham, North Carolina, USA - NOV 1, 2005
Pours a golden color with a decent head. Some grapefruit flavors in the aroma but nothing remarkable. Decent hop flavor but a thin and watery finish holds this one back. Some grapefruit but not enough to give this beer much character. Boring IPA.
4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 awebster (165) - Knoxville, Tennessee, USA - OCT 31, 2005
Another good beer from Redhook. Very nicely hoppy and yet still doesn’t finish too drily. Light to medium bodied.
2.2 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 Wolfenstein (96) - Sarasota, Florida, USA - OCT 29, 2005
Bottle: The smell reminds me of ammonia-like when your mom used to get her hair colored. Pours golden with a quickly evaporating head. Initially very hoppy, but fades away to a clean finish. OK, but I won’t be buying this one again.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20 fluids (364) - USA - OCT 28, 2005
A caramel laden IPA. The caramel malt softens the grapefruit hop taste making it a s smoother then average IPA which is okay but takes it away from the style a bit. It stil tastes great though for what it is.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 trokini (1027) - San Diego, California, USA - OCT 18, 2005
Decent, mellow IPA. Flavors are very subdued. Sweet grapefruit hops and a smooth finish. Not bad.

this beer grew on me. didn’t like it at first - but by the time I was done with the sixer - it’s hop flavor was more apparrent. Very mild finish with no real hoppiness
3.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Sregnar35 (831) - Rotterdam, New York, USA - OCT 12, 2005
This is a good middle of the road IPA. Nothing wrong with the flavor and the aroma was great, it just didn’t have enough bite. I’m glad they carry it at my grocery store though.
2.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20 beeriodic (61) - Longmont, Colorado, USA - OCT 4, 2005
bottle. pours a light copper. Thin head that dissipates. Has some hop aroma, but mine was overpowered by a metallic
bottle cap" scent. Wierd. Mouthfeel is nice enough. Of late I’ve become smitten with the West Coast IPA’s (Stone, Green Flash, etc.), so this one is WAY down on hop aroma, flavor and bitterness. Quaffable, but not outstanding.
