michael-pollack (1209), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA May 9, 2008 Draught at Phoenixville BrewPub: Aroma of hops and some citrus. Pretty faint. Poured amber in color with a small, creamy, off-white head that lasted throughout. Clear. Lightly sparkling. Flavor is lightly sweet and medium bitter. Tastes of fruit, Fuggles, citrus, and celery. Medium body. Slightly sticky, then chalky texture. Average carbonation. Dry finish. Good, but not great. Dickinsonbeer (2364), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA Jan 28, 2005 Fruity, herbal and earthy aromas with hints of citrus but nothing close to the citrus in PNW hops. Flavor is herbal and fruity and fairly clean. Good finish. dberger624 (1029), Phila, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 20, 2004 Draft at the brewery for the IPA Project. Finfing out the fuggle hops aren’t my thing. It was good for the style and had a slight bitter flavor. It’s just not favorite hop. MaiBockAddict (1499), Good Beer Bar Deprived, New Jersey, USA Dec 11, 2004 Tap at SF IPA event. Clear orange, tan head. Hoppy aroma. Mostly hop flavor and bitterness. No real malt backbone. This did not really stand out, but there is nothing really wrong with it other than it may have been too cold to get the malt character... rhapsouldize (174), Phoenixville, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 10, 2004 Tap. Clear amber in color with dense off-white head. Barely an aroma--a bit fruity. Very hoppy and dry. A bit darker than the others in taste.
