KI=6 henk21 (5), Sweden does not count Feb 19, 2008 Bottle at home: Aroma of pine(no shit!), some burnt sugar and spicy hops quite refreshing! beautiful amber colour.. Taste is acidic, different citrusfruits mainly lime and pine. A good bitterness but comes out little to acidic..lightly sour. A good one def not the best nimrod (53), USA Feb 16, 2008 12oz draught with small head and nice lacing. This is a nicely balanced IPA with the usual citrus tones. It was not overly bitter with a grapefruit and caramel flavor. I couldn’t make anything out unique aroma wise. Great taste and easily drinkable. BEERGUY007 (206), Scotia, New York, USA Feb 16, 2008 Got a growler of this at Glenville beverage. Pours a translucent brown, a little head. Smells of hops and tastes like grapefruit juice. It was alright, not my fav though. Reminds me of Stone Ruination in flavor.
