| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/20 | Aug 6, 2006 Pours bright orange with a white head. Aroma has a strange maltiness to it. Flavor is dry and somewhat hoppy. Kind of flat and flavorless. grimreeser (797), Minnesota, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 4, 2006 Pours amber, I didn’t get much of a head. Malty aroma. Tasted some caramel, a little bitterness at the end. Goes down alright. I can see why this isn’t considered an IPA. fonefan (11944), VestJylland, Denmark
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 3, 2006 Bottle. Very nice clear copper color with a medium off-white head. Aroma is mostly malt; Not much notice of hops in there. Flavor is well-balanced, woody, dry, and of course, malty and hoppy. Scubatrip (388), Winston-Salem, North Carolina, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 30, 2006 From the bottle, this one has the distinct aroma of bourbon, which I found quite unusual for a beer....The taste was lightly but surely of eggnog, but not in a bad way. Really interesting beer, and I do wonder if it or the glass was tainted. But until I get to try it again, I’ll call this a mediocre beer. radagast83 (1317), Fairfax, Virginia, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 25, 2006 Bottle. Not as crisp and hoppy as I expected. Very malty and not very much like as I assumed with the name "India" in there. jrohn92 (105), USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Jul 17, 2006 When I saw that this was an India Ale I expected more hops in the taste. This had a thicker body and a more malty taste than most IPAs so I guess that is why it is considered a English Pale Ale. shrubber85 (3016), Wallhalben, Germany
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 14, 2006 Bottle. Slightly sour malt aroma. Dark amber color with small head. Slightly sour malt flavor with a moderate hops finish. Nice, smooth and drinkable - a bit light though. slimweebs (144), Charlottesville, Virginia, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Jul 14, 2006 Updated: Aug 10, 2006This is a below average IPA to me. It has a very one-dimensional flavor that I find in too many IPA’s: Hops and only hops. I can barely taste any good malt flavor. The mouthfeel is just average at best... nearing more to watery than thick, but I didn’t have the heart to give it a 2. With much better IPA’s out there, I will not be buying this again.
