Sledge Jr (2693), Omaha, Nebraska, USA Mar 6, 2006 On tap at the Bethesda location. Cloudy dark gold in color with a white head. Strong finishing hop aroma of Cascades. Has a greater hop flavor than the pale ale. Nice bitter palate. Citrus is pronounced. Not a beer for hopheads, so don’t expect too much. Nice, but not great. TomDecapolis (2346), Skippack, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 8, 2005 Updated: Sep 21, 2005Had on tap at the KOP Rock Bottom (called Prussias Pride IPA at KOP location). Pours a nice amber with an average white head. Slighty dry hopped with more of a piney aroma and taste than floral hops. Decent IPA, but not great. 5-4-6-3-13
Also had this on cask at the KOP location. Picked up more floral hops and orange in the casked version. Also the head was much nicer and stayed around the entire time. Better on cask. StewardofGondor (1934), Washington Heights - Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Jun 29, 2005 Indy. Transparent pale orange with a short grey head. Aroma reveals honey traces, lemon grass and is pretty gentle all around. Hits the palate and is fairly dead with slim to no hop bitterness. Some sweet caramel and maple syrup make this a crowd pleaser, but I like hops, dammit, and this has none. Thin, watery finish. PWalk (332), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 6, 2005 KOP near Philly: If I was going to participate in Rock Bottoms beer pong league I’d use this in my cups. Otherwise I’d only get it with the sampler. richlikebeer (747), Easton, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 17, 2005 On tap at King of Prussia...deep yellow, wispy white head. aroma is very sweet and you can tell there are tons of hops even berfore you start drinking. Taste is equally as sweet as the smell, and the hops taste like they have hops on top of them. The aftertaste was the best part of this beer, not too bitter considering how much hops we are talking about in this brew. Not bad in the IPA class.
