EHopper (100), Minnesota, USA Apr 27, 2008 Updated: May 7, 2008 Bright golden color. Beautiful. Close foam head. Grapefruit and cream soda aroma with a slight, sharp smell of hops. Flavor complements great aroma, crisp with a nice balance of bitter and sweet, very compelling, drinkable beer. Aftertaste actually adds to the experience, providing a great finish.
D_malone102 (67), Denver, Colorado, USA Aug 17, 2008 Had this in a bottle at Monks in Philly. Not a big IPA like many of its competitors, this beer is very easy to drink. Bitterness dominates the hop ballance, it is a very complex malt profile. brew4fun (116), West Virginia, USA Aug 17, 2008 12oz. bottle. Served in bottle. Swirling the bottle produces a creamy non-persistent head. Aroma of toasted malt, floral hops and a touch of orange. Taste is more of the same, yet I think a bit light on the hops for an IPA. Silky smooth light-medium body, nicely bitter, very drinkable. ahabman (4), , Alabama, USA does not count Aug 16, 2008 Love this one. I got a mixed 6 and liked third coast ale, a similar one, even better. mar (558), Dallas, Texas, USA Aug 16, 2008 bottle thanks to kosko20. nice light amber color with a white head that dissipates into floaties. very easy on the palate on the palate with a very smooth hop flavor that is quite nice. jetzler (571), oklahoma city, Oklahoma, USA Aug 16, 2008 Bottle, aroma of pure christmas tree goodness, pours a nice cloudy golden color with a fluffy head. First tried this beer while camping drinking from a bottle and thought it was amazing now that I can properly drink it, its even better. Such a rich strong palate, a burst of hops its a really nice brew, alcohol is well hidden, substantial complexity. Very,very nice brew. Bells is just an amazing brewery.
