3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 riversideAK (5404) - Shoreline, Washington, USA - DEC 30, 2009Bottle from CheersMate1. Thanks man! Nose has grapefruit, dark bread, caramel, earth. Pours orange amber, nice lasting head and good lace. Moderate hop flavors of grapefruit and floral hops, a bit of pepper. Malt base is a little sweet with caramel and a hint of bread. Also some tropical fruit and earth. Light grapefruit flavors stick to palate. Resins are dry and moderately sticky. Drinkability is high.

Pours a slightly hazy light orange with minimal head that dissipates quickly. Aroma is very weak but I notice a little caramel malt and citrus. Taste is citrus with a mix of pine and there is a little sweet malt evident. Medium bodied with low carbonation. This is the third time I have had this beer and once again I struggle to understand why it has such a high rating. Nothing stands out and it is an average IPA at best.

Pours a clear deep amber with a small white top. Aroma is floral and grapefruit hops with a sweet bready malt. Taste is nicely malty and well balanced with floral hops. Well done.

355 ml bottle from a publix in Kissimmee Florida. Pretty typical ipa in terms of appearance, aroma, and flavour. Light on crystal malt which is a plus. Enjoyable but forgettable. FLVC2 #13

On draft at high velocity pours a milky copper. With An off white head. Subdued aromas. Probably from being too cold. I pick out caramel and a citrus rind hoppiness. Actually a moderate crisp hop bite on the tongue. An little bitter. Finish is smooth with a small bite at the end of the palate and not a bad beer

From the bottle. Smell is a malt forward with some citrus hops. Taste follows and a bit astringent and bitter. Slightly sticky mouthfeel and good carbonation.

UPDATED: APR 27, 2013 Very tasty. Floral toffee pine aroma, candy coated caramel pine honeydew toffee, floral hop finish. Excellent golden copper color and elegant lacing. Pretty sure this is same as Sierra Nevada yeast.
