mikey (319), farmington, Utah, USA Apr 30, 2008 Poured a golden/safron color with two fingers of white pillowy head. The nose had really nice floral notes with solid citric presence. The tastes starts with a strong tingling of centeniel hops. Sprucey and slightly zesty. Roasted malt comes in beneth but definitely takes backseat to the hops. The finish is clean and dry. At 4.0 ABV it’s very drinkable and a great summer session beer.
robbmotiwalla (50), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA Jun 28, 2008 dry and crisp with floral and pine taste. not too much flavor, almost watery. could hardly call an IPA with 4% abv an IPA. but whatever. worth a a try for something different. doesn’t stand out though waolsen (919), Littleton, Colorado, USA Jun 12, 2008 bottle. copper pour. highly carbonated. foamy head. lacing. dry hops, citrus, light sweetness in aroma. light. easy drinking. dry hops, earthiness, very light citrus and a malt backing that lacks much definition. too much carbonation. SSSteve (1450), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Apr 13, 2008 labeled "trader ipa". pours a clear orange with a small frothy head. light hoppy notes of citrus and flowers in aroma. flavor is lightly hopped and citrusy with lots of bready spiced malts. light bodied. i think the commercial description is quite accurate. swoopjones (1047), Buffalo, New York, USA Feb 11, 2008 Bottle. Light amber color. Decent hop aroma, light citrus. Again hurt by Utahs intolerance. Average
