Apr 20, 2006 Solid IPA. I like the fact that there is balance in this beer without caramel cloying malt character. The nose is a bit dissapointing with only mild hops but the flavor has a nice resin like stickyness that lingers just enough to let you know it is an IPA. Well made beer.

Apr 20, 2006 Draught Yellow orange, small head. Nice aroma hops, very flowery nose, resiny hints. Hoppy, what would you expect, but it’s buffered, no metallic backfiring. Malt, however, is inconspicious. Light, not overpowering or aggressive, but smooth. A nice, drinkable IPA.

Apr 14, 2006 Updated: Dec 30, 2008This is one great IPA. Lots of hop flavor without being overly bitter. Kind of sweet with a nice finish.
Re-Rated 5/11/07; Was lucky enough to sample the cask-conditioned version of this fine IPA. Mellowed out substantially, helping the pine and grapefruit get along. Columbus hops are still very noticable - which is a toss up considering their pungency.

Mar 23, 2006 Thanks to Andre for this one. Pours out a deep cloudy copper color with a nice fluffy white head that fades in time. Aroma is up front grapefruit/citrus hops. Taste is very well balanced with the hops shining through very nice bitter lingering finish. Solid IPA

Feb 24, 2006 22oz. bottle. Orange golden color with a medium sized rocky white head. Huge piney and grapefruit hop aromatics. Candied citrus hop flavors with sweet doughy malt underneath. Lasting finish with a tapering residual sweetness and a tinge of resinous astringency. Mouthfeel is medium full, rather dry.

Feb 24, 2006 Bottled. Hazy golden, creamy head. Grapefruit hop aroma. Medium sweet with full body. Apart from some toffee this beer is all about hop flavour. Lingering extremely bitter finish.

Big grapefruit aroma and a body to go. Tropical fruits en masse in taste accompanied with an intensive bitterness. A hint of apple peels when warmed up a bit.
