COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Wonderful complex flavos, like no other, simply a great tasting IPA. It’s balanced, strong malt backbone, citrusy nose, with hints of pine and grass.

r464 (1476) - Earth, Pennsylvania, USA - MAR 27, 2012
Aroma of hops and grassiness. Light and crisp, full of hops. Citrus zest, a touch of malt, spice, and earthiness. A bit buttery in the finish. Some flavors remind me of an ESB.

keepersj12 (2275) - Sicklerville, New Jersey, USA - MAR 25, 2012
A nice IPA. Has a very malty sweet aroma up front followed by citrus and pine and a bit of fruit. The flavor starts with the sweetness up front but gives way to a very bitter finish. Nice long lasting after taste and a nice burn too.

TheBeerGod (4675) - Newport News, Virginia, USA - MAR 23, 2012
Bottle. Amber with a tall, frothy white head. Aroma is orange oils, citrus notes, caramel and spicy hops. Taste is big citrus, light pine, spicy hops, sweet malt, tropical fruit and caramel. More sweet than bitter, however. Body is medium with a creamy, bubbly carbonation. Finishes with pineapple upside-down cake, sweet malt, caramel, light pine, spicy hops and orange oils.

smith4498 (2641) - Miami, Florida, USA - MAR 22, 2012
Bottle from a trade with Gription79. Pours clear burnt orange color with off white head. Atomas of grapefruit rind and caramel malts. Bitter grapefruit rind flavor with some sweet malts. Medium body with average carbonation. Thanks Dallas.

Keil (171) - Denver, Colorado, USA - MAR 21, 2012
Bottle. Aroma is mildly soapy, some really nice piney notes with a faint citrus undertone. Nice, light amber color. Flavor is upfront slightly metallic, present bitterness. Nice piney finish. Bready malt background, hop forward. Solid IPA, at 7.3% I wouldn’t call it overly drinkable but the body is nice and light.

beerme31 (392) - Apex, North Carolina, USA - MAR 20, 2012
Bottle. Pours a darker golden color, medium off-white head. Nice hoppy aroma, citrus, floral, herbs. A little fruity sweet taste to it. Nice flavor. Finishes easy, much more mild bitter finish then I expected. Medium-light body, thin texture, soft carbonation. Despite 7.3% abv no alcohol taste. Overall this is a good and enjoyable brew.

Westmeister (990) - Atlanta, Georgia, USA - MAR 20, 2012
Sample from 12oz bottle. Pours a clear copper with off white head. Aroma of mild spicy hops, pine, orange, grapefruit with offsetting sweet malts. The taste is similar with a balancing finish. Very easy drinking as it was a bit light on the bitterness. More so than I typically like but the balance was there.
