jefcon (997), Arlington, Virginia, USA Feb 28, 2007 Draft. Good head and lacing. Nice dusky golden orange. Great hop aroma and perfume. More fruit in the flavor profile. Good weight. Not puckeringly bitter because it is so well balanced, but heaps on the IBUs. Long and a little soapy on the finish. JCB (1716), Durham, North Carolina, USA Feb 26, 2007 In many ways this is as solid an IPA as you could ask for. Big golden body with a citrus profile in the flavor. A passable malt presence gives it a smooth, creamy finish. But somehow it doesn’t amount to anything particularly memorable (especially given that it’s about 10 bucks a sixer). Very solid and drinkable though. joss (3632), Garching b. München, Germany Feb 23, 2007 Bottle. Light vegetable underlying the citric and piney hops. Cloudy orange brown, golden creamy head. Citric, a bit fizzlestick orange, earthy finish. medium to light body. Clay aftertaste. elektronikfagteknikerlærling (892), kbh, Denmark Feb 20, 2007 bottle. golden color. hoppy aroma. nice hops in taste. could be a bit more powerfull. bit bitter. can8ianben (903), Pasadena, California, USA Feb 11, 2007 Wonderfully sticky sweet hoppy goodness. It’s not beer so much as it is hop flavour. Very little malt, alcohol, or yeast present - just basically floral citrus pine aromas and flavours. detroiter (958), Euphoria, Minnesota, USA Feb 11, 2007 Pours a clear copper color, with a couple inches of rocky beige foam. Good head retention, dismal lacing. Hoppy aroma without much character.
Initially a malty flavor with lots of toffee and biscuit. Hopes kick in shortly thereafter and linger into the finish. Good bitterness, good balance with the malt, but again no hop character - just generic hop bitterness. Medium body, good carbonation, fairly smooth and refreshing taffurs888 (121), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 10, 2007 Very refreshing for an IPA. Has a stiff taste that is very hoppy. Definetly a nice citrus after taste. millysdaddy (67), Alexandria, Virginia, USA Feb 8, 2007 12 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy, golden amber with a large off-white head that left a lot of lacing. Aromas of caramel, citrus and spice. Fruity hope flavors - grapefruit and other citrus fruit. A little lemony and bitter but balanced by some malty sweetness. A pretty good IPA.
