puzzl (2579), New York, New York, USA Aug 31, 2007 Bottle from SS. Muggy, metallic hop aroma. Kind of like a copper mine or something... earthy but sharp. Similar flavor. Really really rough on the palate, I’m having a hella difficult time finishing this bottle. Not my favorite. padrefan98 (787), (San Diego) Santee, California, USA Aug 28, 2007 12 oz bottle shared with fordest. Some pine flavors with a little bit of sweetness. A nice Ipa. fordest (1954), Santee/San Diego, California, USA Aug 28, 2007 12 oz bottle thanks to the sister-in-law. Lots of head on this clear golden copper brew. Aromas were sweet citrus hops. Flavors very similar grassiness as the beer warmed. Pretty good. IrishBoy (2686), Bakersfield, California, USA Aug 15, 2007 Draft at The Bistro’s IPA Fest; Nose of light citrus hops; Lightly hazed dark gold with a large glass-lacing offwhite head; flavor of light hop bitterness and caramel. Well balanced. mrant (330), New York, USA Aug 15, 2007 Smells sour and fragrant. Color is a nice hazy amber. Flavor is a very nosy hops, a little citrus. Very refreshing. DYCSoccer17 (2187), Davis, California, USA Aug 13, 2007 5 ounce sample tasted at Bistro’s IPA Festival. Piney hop aroma with some mild resiny/hempy notes present. Moderately aromatic with a light spiciness. Mildly hazy honey-colored body with a small off-yellow head. Wow, very grainy and very resiny. Some weird fruity esters also seem to make an appearance through a cloud of nutty flavors in the middle. Finishes bitter and grainy. Kind of odd. temporrari (327), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA Aug 9, 2007 Pours an orange/amber color. Cloudy. Thin head, doesn’t last. I can tell this uses British malts. Fairly bitter, quite a bit of malt in the flavor tho. Carbonation is medium, decent mouthfeel. Isn’t bad, isn’t great. Kinda reminds me of a few of my early batches of extract homebrew
