4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 JB84 (636) - Kitchener, Ontario, CANADA - MAR 24, 2011
Tap at Bells. Pour golden orange with white head and outstanding lacing. Aroma citrus hops, malty sweetness, and caramel. Taste citrus fruits, grapefruit, mango, touch malty sweet but then is perfectly balanced back by a great non abrasive bitterness. MF medium body good carb. Outstanding beer and a tribute to great IPA’s.
4.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 jrallen34 (3434) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - MAR 22, 2011
This beer pours a slighty cloudy gold with a white head, no real lacing.
It smells very very fruity, citrus dominating, with a slight note of hops.
It tastes wonderful. It is sweet and citrus but has a great bitter taste at the end. The thing that makes it great is that the bitter note is the best IPA end I’ve had and allows you to drink a ton of them.

Pours a nice golden orange color with a foamy head. Head is slightly off white. Smells like pine needles and dandelions. Delicious. Taste is fairly bitter. Nice dandelion component mixed with pine resin and a WHOLE forest of pine trees. Weeee

4.4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 pacond (162) - Gainesville, Florida, USA - MAR 16, 2011
UPDATED: MAY 20, 2011 Floral hops, tons of citrus. Fresh on tap this beer has a ton of floral aromas and is crazy drinkable. In bottles, it looses some of that aroma, but is still retain the citrus hoppy goodness with a good mouth feel and a crisp finish.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20 icehawk (103) - Mount Pleasant, USA - MAR 16, 2011
UPDATED: MAR 28, 2011 Amber, slightly cloudy pour with a clean almost creamy white head. Citrus/floral aroma plus yeast? Aroma could be confused for an unfiltered wheat beer almost. Nice citrusy taste, balanced and refreshing. Slightly bitter aftertaste (there are the hops!) that goes away fairly quickly.
12oz bottle into SA perfect pour

From the tap and it is good. Can’t wait to have more. It outdistances many brews. Bells gets it right on this one. Aroma, taste, citrusy, all superb.
4.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20 pghbeerlover (3) - Pennsylvania, USA - MAR 13, 2011 does not count
One Of My favorite Pale Ale’s.
From Bottle.
Pours A Beautiful Copper Color With A Creamy Head A Little Over An Inch High, Very Citrusy Floral Aroma. Almost Like Being In A Flower Garden That Is Also Growing Hops. Very Crisp Dry Taste. Very Smooth And Easy To Drink. A Hoppy Bitterness Taste Almost Makes My Mouth Pucker.
Definately Worth Trying
