Pour amber with a small off-white head. Spruce and Floral hop aroma. Pretty well balance of hops and malts. Nothing to write home about, but a solid IPA.

Had this beer on 10/2/2002. Aroma is very hoppy. Nice head and ok carbonation. Starting with a medium body then going down with a bitter feel. Finish is very bitter with a light malt flavor and strong hop bitterness.

Dark amber. Surprisingly sweet malt aroma. Spicy hops dominate the taste at first sip, but this was balanced pretty well. Pretty smooth, lightly bitter finish. Great beer to grab a six pack of.

Dark amber, creamy off white head. Soft fresh grassy earthy notes flow over hints of citrus, butterscotch, and toasted toffee chips. Flavor is balanced with grassy earth hop flavors and sweet toasty caramel malt from beginning to end. Light to medium bodied, soft carbonation, lightly bittersweet finish. Good session brew...

12 oz. bottle lot # 2617. Pours a clear copper color with a rapidly diminishing off white head that leaves some lacing. the aroma is subdued pine and floral hops with a little malty sweetness. The flavor has even less hops than the aroma, some medium sweet malt early, then finishes with a non discript bitterness. How old is this batch? It seems to have lost the qualties of a good IPA.

Slight pine hop aroma with a touch of caramel. Pours a clear amber with a small white head. Just a mild hop taste with a slightly sweet finish. Overall, very drinkable, but nothing special.
