keepersj12 (774), Sicklerville, New Jersey, USA Jul 9, 2008 The aroma hits you as you pop the bottle cap. Wonderful floral and pine. Amber with a big fluffy head that laces nicely. Flavor mimics the aroma with some sweet malt and caramel. The hops last long after the beer is gone. Excellent. Tejas (693), Dallas, Texas, USA Jul 6, 2008 Damn, this is good. Extremely drinkable. Could be a perfect session beer. Just the right amount of flowery hops with a decent malty backbone. Looks killer in the glass and lacing the whole way down the glass. Glad I picked up more than one since it’s not in Texas. IndyBeerBob (3), Indianapolis, Indiana, USA does not count Jul 5, 2008 Sorry, I had to give my favorite beer a perfect rating! I dare someone to show me a better IPA (sorry, Hopslam and Centennial) Homer321 (127), Rockledge, Florida, USA Jul 4, 2008 Poured from a 7.75gal keg into my nice, trusty 20oz glass. aroma of freshly cut flowers, light fruit, probably due to the hops. Appearance is very hazy; the keg was actually keg-conditioned, but this is probably 1/3rd of the way thru the keg. Lacing better than most Belgians! Good balance of hops, bitterness and malt. MUCH better than DFH 60. A very good beer that I would buy again and again. For 7%, I don’t get much warming. Larry rules! padrefan98 (787), (San Diego) Santee, California, USA Jul 4, 2008 12 oz bottle thanks to fordest for giving this one to me. Very good IPA. Very enjoyable. Nice finish. soicanbreathe (13), Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA Jun 29, 2008 This beer has an amazing finish, very balanced but has a good hop content, definately one of the best IPA’s Ive had. vikingbeercbus (34), Columbus, Ohio, USA Jun 27, 2008 12 oz bottle, pours deep golden with a good head and nice lacing. Lively in the mouth with citrus flavor. sja14 (105), Ohio, USA Jun 26, 2008 Pours orange-copper witha nice off-white head. Smells of spicey hops with a hint of pine. Tastes of sweet well-balanced hoppiness. I actually was expecting a more intense hop flavor but it is really well-balanced. A good IPA, but not the best I have had.
