2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
UPDATED: MAR 25, 2005 A very boring IPA. Just a bitter hop taste with no real distinctive flavor. Little bit of malt and citrus. Flavor of the hops didn’t really do it for me.
3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Cloudy and hazy with a nice dark tan to amber color. This one looks like it has some good body when you pour it out. Decent head and a nice aroma of slight citrus and floral hops. Let’s begin... The first impression is a great bodied beer with an immediate hop flavor, but not too bitter. Malt closes in well and surrounds the tongue. Nice carbonation that fits in well and makes this one a quencher. I had a feeling that this had a chance to be a nice beer, and I was correct. Well done. I will have this beer again.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Nice golden color,small white head that had a decent hang time then faded slowly to leave a slight lace behind.The aroma was lightly malty nicely hoppy and citrusy.The taste was pretty decent,good malt side but it’s kind of over shadowed by the hop presence which is nicely done with a good citrus grapefruit side,also a decent after taste of hops with a medium bitter side.Pretty decent brew and well worth trying again.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Golden pour. Quick-settling, bubbly white head. IPA hop and grapefruit aroma. Decent lacing. I’d like more hops and more alcohol. Above average, not better than good. Typical IPA.

Golden color with a smallish off white head and touches of lace. Soapy floral hops aromas with some bready malt flavors underneath. Fairly clean malt flavor with a sharper hops bite late. Almost lager ike in some ways. Quenching, with a touch of citrus. A summer BBQ type brew.

I’m not a fan of bitter beers. As such, this one was OK. Hazy appearance w/o any head. Taste was complex with lots of hops and a dark maltiness to it, that was almost overwhelmed by the pure bitterness of it. If you like bitters, you’ll probably like this one.

On tap at Andy’s. Poured amberish, with a good head, and a Huge hoppy Aroma. Not a hop head myself, I pushed on. Flavor of malts AND HOPS! did I mention HOPS! Damn, this was crisp, dry, and hoppy. Not my cup of tea, but good.
