Draught sample @ 3 Små Rum on November 10. Pours golden with a small white head that doesn’t leave much trace on the glass while dissipating. Smell is very malty with caramel, bread, sweet tropical fruits and some yeast. Taste is fresh and rather thin. There’s sweet malts, bread, cereal and peaches. Finish is sweet with lots of cereal.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
UPDATED: OCT 21, 2011 Sampled from the courtesy of OmegaX. The body is a golden yellow with not much of a body. Smelled floral of hops with hints of lemongrass and dried fruits. The taste has a sharp citrus, but is quickly overtaken by sweet malts with hints of orange peel. Finished sweet and a tad bitter - quite the palate cleanser.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle pour. Color was that of bronze with a minimal white head. Nose consisted of some caramel malts with some pine in the mix. Weak nose for an ipa. Very faint aromas. Taste was nice with nice burnt caramel with piney/grapefruit hops that pleased the taste buds with a nice bitterness. Easy to drink. Pretty good. Double ipa is better though, imo.
