| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 8, 2008 Pours a copper orange color, vibrant and on the clear side. Just a little bit of white head a nice bit of lacing arond the glass. Smells earthy with a bit of hop spiciness. Tastes earthy and a little dull up front. On the finish is when the hops and the spiciness kick in. Mouthfeel is thin with somewhat subdued carbonation. Not a bad fresh hop IPA, not my favorite, but definitely drinkable. wickedpete (626), Lexington Park, Maryland, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Feb 6, 2008 Thanks to Vance for this one. Orangish, amber appearance, standing up a creamy beige head. Aroma has a caramel sugary character, and some berry fruitiness along with the pleasant hops. Sugary sweet up front lending to dry bitterness surrounded by caramel, citrus, and some earth. Medium body makes for easy drinking. kimcgolf (828), Dacula, Georgia, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Feb 5, 2008 This was a very good beer. Poured from the bottle to a drak orange-red color with thick off-white head that lingered thru most of the glass and left good lacing. Nose was an immediate tangy, citrusy hop (mostly grapefruit)with a pleasant malty background. Mouthfeel of this full bodied beer was tangy and slightly bitter, but again ofset just enough by the malt. Flavor accented the citrus hoppy flavor of the nose, but also worked in a littel malty dark fruit as well.
This alll led to a very well rounded, long full finish.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 1, 2008 Bottle. Clear orange pour with a little white head that dissipated quickly. Aroma is pilsner malt, hop resin, a little citrus. Flavor is slightly grassy, slightly citrusy, but they both go well with the clean malt flavor. Resin in the palate and a nice amount of bitterness. alexanderj (2227), Chino Hills, California, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 1, 2008 Bottle; poured a clear, rich orange color. Large, slightly creamy head. Aroma was nice and fresh; with citrus, grapefruit, and caramel. Flavor was like the aroma, with a nice toffee background. Some resin in the palate, which was nice. A pretty solid and good brew.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jan 20, 2008 Nice looking IPA with a medium brown body and a small head with little retention. Aroma is grapefruit but is somewhat subdued. Feel is a pleasant oily texture. This is clearly a well hopped beer but is on the sweet side. Grapefruit and pine stand out along with caramel. Bitter aftertaste is of tart grapefruit. It is difficult to imagine an IPA being very much better. hoppopotamus (182), Santa Cruz, California, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jan 16, 2008 Amber-red with a small white head that doesn’t last too long. Smells like some fresh hops all right, but I could have used a little more. Pine, floral notes and a bit of malt in the aroma. Not as grassy as I expected, with a solid malt backbone. Finishes bitter. Very good IPA. WickerBrew (312), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Jan 14, 2008 Wow I am surprised to see such a low rating for this, I loved it. Maybe its just my love of wet hopped ales talking, but this had some great flavor and smell going on. A nice thick feel to it as well, this leaves the SN Harvest in the dust.
