natejgood (189), Denver, Colorado, USA Sep 16, 2009 Pours a hazy light golden color with a substantial white head composed of large bubbles. The aroma is quite pleasant and includes hops, pine and citrus. The flavor is has some lights hops but is otherwise unremarkable. There are hints of citrus, but the flavor lacks the complexity and kick of my favorite IPAs. PilsnerPeter (2585), Flushing, New York, USA Sep 16, 2009 Bottle 2009 version: Copper golden with a light tan dense head that retains well and laces nicely. Citrusy spicy cascade with a slightly subtle nutty malt (crystal) note. Creamy/fluffy body with mild carbonation. The flavor has evident Spicy & citrusy cascade character with a soft nutty sweetness that provides a silky body. Has a long resiny finish. A balanced and solid IPA. kuphish (150), Bloomington, Indiana, USA Sep 15, 2009 Bottle. Pours a large, off-white, jiggly, pitted, creamy head. Clear, brilliant copper body. Big citrus hop nose - grapefruit and lemon with a dash of orange. Definite pine presence. More citrus in the flavor - big time grapefruit with a bit of mango and peach. Soft caramel backbone with some notes of bready biscuit. Medium bodied, average carbonation, moderately bitter for the style, slight, pleasing resin and lingering citrus. Yum. Super drinkable. cryfreedmb (112), Ocean, New Jersey, USA Sep 15, 2009 Great beer. Nice hops with a bit of malt backround. Lots of citrus and pine in the aroma and flavor. I like this. xmarcnolanx (789), Kirkwood, Missouri, USA Sep 11, 2009 Wow. Nice.
Aroma is a bit sour and very citrus. Bitter hops, and biscuity malt.
Taste is very citrus, slightly sour, some sweet cracker, and a bit of bitterness.
Finish is slightly biter, but mostly just a citrus, biscuit lingering aftertaste.
Very solid. Finhead (56), Illinois, USA Sep 10, 2009 Amber orange color with thin off-white head. Has a pine and citrus aroma with slight caramel. Light to medium body has a bitter taste with a dry and bitter finish. jimmiec (38), Louisiana, USA Sep 9, 2009 Updated: Sep 17, 200912 oz bottle (Albertsons, Lafayette, LA) - Aroma: mod piney (hops), low citrus (hops) Appearance: pale orange, white-orange head, cloudy; Flavor: low sweetness, mod acidic and bitter; Mouthfeel: dry, mod bodied, mod carbonation; Overall: nice hoppy (like the piney), low malty beer. dchmela (1406), Orlando, Florida, USA Sep 8, 2009 Pours a light golden with a thick white head.
