pineypower (845), Pine Barrens, New Jersey, USA Apr 5, 2008 Tap at Capone’s. Pours out a very attractive amber color with a perfect three finger fluffy head. Aroma of citrus and slight grassy hops. Taste is very well balanced with citrus hops coming through. Very nicely balanced. Well done
thenick (509), North Bellmore, New York, USA Jul 1, 2008 Tap. Pours a deep gold with a very slight head. Aroma has sweet and fruity notes in there. Taste is slight sweetness up front, slight bitterness in the back, and a watery finish. I was let down by this one. hopscotch (4386), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Jun 17, 2008 Bottle…Thinkin’ ‘Bout Thirteen Hours O’ Drinkin’ (tew man wrecking crew)... Clear, deep golden ale with little to no head. The aroma offers notes of toffee, caramel, grapefruit and cotton candy. Full-bodied and oily with fizzy carbonation. Very lightly acidic. Modest caramel sweetness precedes medium grapefruit pith bitterness. Lengthy, bitter finish. Bottle provided by mgumby10! mgumby10 (1502), West Palm Beach, Florida, USA Jun 15, 2008 Handbottle courtesy of Miver. Pours a fairly clear amber, with a small off white head. Smells of citric hops and a balancing malt presence, as well as some citrus fruit as well. Theflavor was also really well balanced with a perfect amount of hop bitterness, spicy pepper, and grapefruit all mixed in together nicely. The pepper really lingers in the aftertaste giving it a nice sharp bite. Had some good flavor going on here. Enjoyed this. Styles (1653), Taylor, Michigan, USA Jun 9, 2008 Handbottle courtesy of Miver. Anber with nice beige head, growing legs, great lacing. Aroma is tad muted, but a nice balance of toasted grain, pine resin and light grapefruit. Flavor is dominated by pine resin and grapefruit. 2 hop sneeze thus far. Nice backbone of toastred grain and light caramel. Medium body, creamy smooth, carbonation lacks a little. Overall a nice session IPA. Thanks Joe! jcwattsrugger (3757), Florida and, New Jersey, USA Jun 9, 2008 growler @Noogfest4.0-thanks kp?–pours a white ring for a head and copper color. Aroma is citrus/pine hops, medium malt.
