3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Honey brown body and bright a thick film is floating on top. Lighter the expected hop aroma with more sweet malts being smelt, I’m picking up this dark lactic acid type aroma (the description makes no sense to any one ells but me, I know). Taste is much of the same, sweet woody hops with almost a honey flavor and earthy spice flavours. There is a very mild generic citrus quality to the flavor. ok beer it taste different then most other IPA’s I think do to a different hop profile seemed calmer then most IPA’s with a more earthy taste. I liked it
3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
12 oz bottle into shaker. Pours a slightly hazy orangeish copper hue with a small head that devolves into a long-retaining skiff and collar of foam; leaves some nice decorative lace. Aroma is of peaches, some grain, faint pine; a little subdued. Taste starts out a little sweet for maybe a second and remains very bitter for the duration of the drink. Full-bodied with medium-high carbonation and a nice long finish. Definitely a solid IPA, I just wish it was a little more aromatic and had more of a piney/citrusy taste to it.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
UPDATED: OCT 15, 2010 12 oz. bottle- Pours amber golden with a thin yet nice head, lacework is decent, aroma is fresh clean hops and some malt. The flavor is piney bitter hops and has an interesting spice kick to it, not really pepper but just a general spiciness, pretty tasty. I can’t find the IBu’s on this website or the bottle, might have to go to the website, they have to be 70+ though.

4.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
Nice resiny and weedy nose with full body up front, not too much gravity, but enough to carry the thick sappy hops and roasted malt. A nice IPA
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bottle. Pour is a red orange with a kahki head that dissipates to ring around glass. Aroma is carmalized pine and malt which comes off bitter to the nose.Taste is a great mixture of sugar malts and bitter hops with some faint citrus in the finish. Palate is slick and sticky all at the same time then finishes chaulky and dry. Good IPA!
