| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 6, 2009 Bottle thanks to machfive55. Pours a clear amber orange with a thick finger of lengthy off white head with lovely cracked glass lacing. Huge orange, grapefruit, and lemon citrus aroma with undertones of herbal hops. Taste is a soft caramel body layered over top with more floral, citrus, and lightly herbal hops. Not much bitterness, very sweet and satisfying. Jblauvs (542), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 6, 2009 Dark amber pour, a little dark for an ipa. Dissipating head. Aroma is absurdly citrus, lemon zest, orange peel, red grapefruit. Floral, grassy hop notes come out in the flavor. smooth, not too much bite but very balanced. oteyj (724), Canterbury, New Hampshire, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 6, 2009 Pours brownish copper with minimal head. Aroma is mostly citrus- grapefruit and orange with floral notes. Flavor is grassy, floral and resinous. Hop character is excellently prepared. Palate is thick and resinous with a bone dry finish. Excellent example of the style. craftycarl21 (521), South Hero, Vermont, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 6, 2009 pours a beautiful transparent orange- gumwood color with small head. Aroms is excellent- a bunch of grapefruit, orange, lemon rind- quite nice. In the flavor the floral hops come to the extreme forefront. Has some biscuit and bread tones to add to the floral/grass idea, dry finish. Really really nice straight IPA, quite impressed. BelgianBeerGal (1282), Sabbatical in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 5, 2009 Bottled. Good IPA but the flavours and mouthfeel were a little lighter than expected. Poured a clear bronze colour with a small off-white head and no lacing. Aroma was light, pineapple hops and some urea. Flavour is oily hops resin but it finishes realatively quick with no lingering aftertaste. Haslinger (642), Syracuse, New York, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 5, 2009 12 ounce bottle shared with my housemate. Pours a nice amber with a small white quickly dissipating head. Kind of weak smell but what Ic ould smel was delicious hops. The taste is somewhat sweet with some great hops finish. Awesome beer would buy again RedXIII (127), Powell, Ohio, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 5, 2009 Updated: Mar 23, 2009Man I was so pumped to try this and was very disappointed. Everything about it was just "weak" except the color. Faint, faded IPA aroma with a flavor that is anything but bitter and complex. A bit of a malt backbone with a bitter, but not an overly flavorful finish. Maybe a bad sixpack but overall a big let down for me. Not horrible, but not worth it for the price tag. jonnabrix (136), Newberrytown, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Mar 5, 2009 Gorgeous beer - clear golden amber with white head. Bright, hoppy, citrus aroma. Flavor starts off with some sweet malt, and quickly goes all hop. Fresh and perfect for early spring.
