Jun 6, 2008 22oz bottle. Pours a golden/yellow color with a lovely white head and lingers and laces nicely. The nose is HUGE! Mainly citrus and pine. The flavor is sweet and citrusy and has a very nice malty backbone to support the bitterness. The consistency is almost like syrup. It feels a little thick in on the palate, but not enough to fault the beer. Very easy, fun drinker. Very nice beer. I’ll have one more please!

Jun 6, 2008 I don’t get the "American Strong Ale" description. This is a straight up IPA. Nice and hopppy. Clean taste. But not a strong ale which has that intense matly taste.

Jun 6, 2008 Bottle from Beer Run in Charlottesville. Pours a light amber with a medium frothy head with good retention and lacing. Big earthy, piny hop aroma. Sweet citrus and floral hop notes with a definite note of Southern style sweetened iced tea. Strange, but very tasty.

Jun 5, 2008 Clear yellow. Hoppy, grassy and dull. I wasn’t quite sure what category this was in; it seemed like an IPA by a clever name. I have a co-worker whose last name is Hoppe--I wonder if he knows of this beer.

Jun 5, 2008 big yeasty aroma, malty and flat bread ... I was expecting hops ... hops in the taste with some biscuits and fish ... malty with a nice hop balance ... yes fish, but not in a bad way ... aftertaste is where the bitter comes in ... lightly salty/earthy is in there too ... thats what I get ... site says 10%, bottle says 8% ... this is gonna screw up may coherent planning for the night ... This beer is very enjoyable and IMO there is a lot going on ... thumbs up

Jun 5, 2008 Split a 22oz with a friend at the bar. It pours a cloudy orange color with a thick white head. The nose was of nice floral hops and some citrus fruits. Initially it has a nice bitter flavor that kind of attacks your tongue with malted barley and orange peel on the finish. I really like how the bitter hop and citrus last for a while on the palate, it really makes the beer enjoyable. Also the fact that it was available at the bar makes me even more excited since most bars around me do not have a great beer list.

Jun 5, 2008 22oz. Poured a pale orange with a minimal white head. Nose is mostly hops and alcohol, nothing too crazy. Body is alcohol and hops, some citrus. Mouthfeel is a bit astringent, and overall I just didn’t enjoy this beer. I am also confused by their marketing on this one.
