4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 bittermestupid (247) - Canton, Ohio, USA - APR 13, 2011
12 oz. pours pale yellow with a white 1/2" head. Smells of grapefruit, pine, mango and a slight floral note. Wonderful piney, grapfruit, orange peel, lemon, and there is a great malt undertone to this as well. Mouthfeel is medium oily because of the hop character and very drinkable. The finish is long and bitter but very smooth! Awesome brew!

Light amber color with a big, frothy head. Nice floral, citrusy aroma. Palette is great. The floral and citrus notes carry over into the taste with a nice hop finish.

Golden orange pour with large frothy head. Aroma of pine, grapefruit and lychee fruit. Taste is grapefruit, honey and a nice hoppy finish that is just right and not to harsh. Good beer.

4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 20/20 eclaycamp (187) - , Kansas, USA - APR 8, 2011
Pours a brilliant clear gold with a frothy half inch head. Lots of carbonation. Hefty hops hit the nose first, with lots of pine and grass characteristics. Mild cereal malt fills out the rest of the aroma, filling in the cracks left by the hops. Moderate carbonation, good mouthfeel, nice hop bitterness in the finish. Taste is hop forward, but there’s a nice subtle malt sweetness that helps balance things out. The body of the beer is lightly syrupy, though the heavy carbonation helps keep it from being over powing or cloying. Overall it’s a very solid and very drinkable example of the American IPA style.

4.4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20 zimm421 (48) - Ohio, USA - APR 7, 2011
Appears a nice orange to amber color with a nice, thick white head that leaves great lacing. The nose is full of citrus and pine scents, and they are very present in the taste as well. There’s also some nice balance to the taste as some malts stand out as well. This is medium bodied and it goes down very easily. Overall a great IPA, and one of my favorites!
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20 LetsGoState (310) - Pennsylvania, USA - APR 7, 2011
Aroma is very floral hops. Taste is floral hops with a hint of spices. Bitterness is pretty heavy. Overall a great IPA with a lot of character, although IPA isn’t may favorite style.
