LearninBeer (194), Sterling Heights, Michigan, USA Mar 8, 2009 Pours a golden copper, creamy off-white head with excellent lacing. Aroma is hoppy, pine and a little citrus. The flavor is hops, bitter, pine, grapefruit, lasting on the tongue. A decent IPA. BostonFox (25), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Mar 8, 2009 Great grassy, citrus hopping with a real nice bitter finish but there’s a little something missing here which keeps this from being one of the great A.P.A.s.
I hate to say this but it’s a little too focused on the hops without quite enough backbone. Still worth trying. A few times. nefarious (202), Clarkston, Michigan, USA Mar 7, 2009 Nice o.range/copper pour with a big white fluffy head. Grassy notes and citrus. Very nice! Wondeerful lacing. Nice mouthfeel........very well done IPA. Solid badgerben (3584), Blaine, Minnesota, USA Mar 5, 2009 Copper color with a medium head. Orangey aroma with some light pine and sweet caramel malt. The hop profile switches in the flavor, favoring pine over citrus. Moderately acidic and a little vinous. Solid IPA. j12601 (1149), Poughkeepsie, New York, USA Mar 4, 2009 On tap at the Golden Rail. Pours a clear dark amber with a faint white head. Citrus hops, with a piney and pineapple sweetness. Medium bodied with a sweet citrus hop note. Finishes with a nice grapefruit bitter. Pwn3d (1036), Manhattan, New York, USA Mar 3, 2009 Bottle. Great medium dark orange amber with slight hue, good lacing. Some sediment. Nose is of fresh florals, just cut, also has notes of caramel. Mouth is aggressively floral and spicy with some notes of cilantro and celery. Ripe and clean carbonation. Long bitter dry burn of a finish. Very big for the breweries regular IPA. For the style, excellent. cprochak (388), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 1, 2009 Bottle from Bottleworks. Sweet Caramel aroma and pours an interesting clear orange. Tast is very sweet yet has a clean short finish. zappafan99 (462), South Carolina, USA Feb 28, 2009 Taste 2/9 bottle. Looks: Caramel body with a thick top. Aroma: Nice hop blend aroma. Taste: Floral and citrus hops with spice. Beginning and finish are good, just a little unfocused in the middle.
