Gurst (338), Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA Oct 7, 2008 Sweet citrus notes: lemon, orange, grapefruit. Some sugar cookie, toast, and flowers. Body is fairly full for an IPA. End is dry, with light alcohol aftertaste. CapnJazz (35), Boalsburg, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 6, 2008 12 oz. bottle and on tap. Pour is a clear amber orange with a medium head. Bursts of fresh hops and citrus! Nice malty backbone with enough sweetness to carry along the hop presence. Never overbearing or random tasting, very focused, simple, and nearly perfect. Freshness is a key here, but not as much as with some IPA. Just extremely drinkable and enjoyable. Uaru02 (23), Simpsonville, Kentucky, USA Oct 3, 2008 Great IPA! Very flavorful. Great hop taste without being too bitter. Slightly sweet to impart a full flavor. A great beer! Moggman (187), Columbus, Ohio, USA Oct 2, 2008 Bottle. Pours golden with white head. Aroma is citrus and hops. Flavor is not over hopped, finishes dry and light with balanced hop flavor. Beershine (2677), Hue, Vietnam Oct 2, 2008 Draught @ Cole’s. Clear golden with lots of lacing. Mellow hoppy aroma. Very leafy but not a lot of pine. Some citrus rind. Nice level of carbonation. Super dry and really mellow finish. Super smooth with an exceptionally delicious hop kiss. Really rindy. My kind of IPA. falkirk005 (27), St. Louis Park, Minnesota, USA Oct 1, 2008 Beautiful pour with solid white head and faintly copper body. Aroma is enticing with hints of citrus. Can definitely taste the hops but they are not overwhelming. Crisp flavor with subtle sweetness always leaves me wanting more. This is an outstanding beer. wheelz843 (203), Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA Oct 1, 2008 bottle. sweet lemony aroma. was a little too bitter for my tastes, but worth trying again. taalhiker (179), Dayton, Ohio, USA Sep 29, 2008 From bottle. Part of April Dayton Beertasting event.
Pours dense but clear copper.
Aroma of floral and piney hops.
Nice body and strong hoppy finish. One of my go-to IPA’s.
