12 oz. Bottle. Pours a crystal clear golden-orange with a frothy, white head and decent lacing. Great citrus hop aroma. Really smooth and well balanced. The flavor begins with a malty sweetness followed by an assertive grapefruity hop bitterness with a touch of pine. A light to medium body with a medium dry finish.

Bottle. Pours an orangish, clear color with a white, frothy head. Lacing is very strong. Aromas of grapefruit, pine, and citrus from the hops. Powerful aroma of hops! Thin initial texture with a slick, oily finish. Flavor is bitter all the way, although there is a bit of grapefruit toward the end that is nice. Very good IPA.

Draft at Flying Saucer. Golden color. Awesome fruitiness from the hops. Nice hoppy nose and a pleasant finish. The alcohol came through this one just a bit.

Bottle from GBBF, drunk 30th Sept 08. Great dry hop aroma - lots of pine. Light amber with a lasting small white head. Very drinkable for a beer of over 6% but with sufficient body to let the flavours shine. Good dry finish. Straightforward but highly effective. Now pass me another one!

Bottle--OK, I just missed the 1800 rating, so what else can I add. Yummy, solid IPA, a wonderful benchmark. Light gold color with a small/medium white head. Solid hop taste without overwhelming. Not much aroma. Produce place.

Pours a light golden color with a white head. Great tasting hops but does leave a little after taste to the mouth. Very smooth palate and not your typical IPA. Great brew!
