Sep 3, 2006 light orange color slightly glowing body w/ a thick white head w/ thick soapy lacing. Full hop aroma smellls very nice smooth lightly grapefruit fresh juiced aroma light carmel to a well balance very nice. Full well coated palate very nice and oily. Flavor has a ton of malt a very sweet carmel nice toasty notes well hopped flavor almost seems to be a BW has a very dry almost piney finish... i guess it just wasn’t quite big enough to make the jump. Very good stuff though.

Sep 3, 2006 Thanks Chuck. The beer pours to a hazy caramel colored body with a lasting creamy white head and dense sheet lacing. The aroma is juicy nectarines, peaches, grapefruit. The flavor is extremely toasty. My God there’s a lot of malt in this. Fruitiness and hopping gets covered up by the malt, but is still slightly apparent. Pretty well balanced as I wouldn’t say this had no hops in it. Creamy mouthfeel. Pretty good beer, hard to call it an IPA.

Aug 19, 2006 Big grapefruit aroma. Good head. High 75 IBU. Reasonable 6.6 ABV. Juicy orange flavour, and good mouthfeel, but no-holds-barred bitter aftertaste.
A 750 thanks to Thebungyo. Had to keep in fridge because of the no preservatives notice.

Jun 15, 2006 Half pint ok cask at Latona Pub in Seattle. Piney, grapefruity hoppiness in the nose with some mild grainy and cereal-like maltiness. Straight forward aroma. Transparent copper color with a yellowish frothy head. Slight cascade grapefruity hops to start, turning a nice cereal-biscuity malty flavor in the middle. Finishes with some earthy hops. Well-balanced, pleasant, nicely done IPA.

Jun 11, 2006 Light amber, with huge head! Nice aroma of hops. Big hops up front with light malt. Finish is a little bitter that stays with you.

Jun 5, 2006 22oz bottle. Pours golden-amber, as has been describe, with a nice head. Satisfying bitter finish with a pleasing aroma. While nothing exceedingly special, found it onsale at the local supermarket and was well worth the purchase.
