Jun 19, 2005 12oz. bottle. Cloudy orange/amber color with a large white soapy head. Fruity hop aroma(orange and grapefruit) with some sweet malt aroma in the background. Flavor was mildly sweet at first sip before turning quite bitter. Kind of one dimensional with the hop flavor dominating. Metallic aftertaste.

does not count  Jun 12, 2005 one of the few beers from this brewery i enjoy. It is quite cloudy with a white head.
A nice amount of hops without the overdoing it like an IPA

Jun 10, 2005 Updated: Nov 22, 2007Cloudy copper, mostly opaque, with an off-white head. Aroma is sweet, as is taste. Definite tangeriney grapefruity flavor ebbs and flows with stabbing hoppiness. A decent IPA, but not quite enough alcohol for me. (edit) AMAZING on draft. Pliny-like aroma and taste- sweet floral nectar quite unlike its bottled counterpart. $20/pitcher mcg’s

Jun 10, 2005 A nice golden amber color with a yellowish head that fades quickly. A distinct hoppiness that is very complex and sharp but not overpowering. There is some citrusy fruitiness that keeps it refreshing.

Jun 7, 2005 Cloudy Dark Orange Coloring with Off White Ring/Skin. Light Fruit, Hops Aroma. Multiple Hops Notes..One of Which is Very Dry and Unusual..Intriguing and Very Characterable IPA

Jun 6, 2005 Floral, lime, orange, pine, catty, sweaty, resinous hop nose that I associate with high alpha acid hops (chinook?) with some very sweet underlying malt character. Opaque orange-tan with shy but lasting, large-bubbled tan head that leaves some lacing. Harsh hop flavour assaults the tongue - perhaps seven is too many varieties of hops for one beer? Citrus lime/lemon, resiny pine notes dominate the unidimensional hop onslaught. Medium-light body with moderate carbonation and clean, refreshing mouthfeel. Bottle (trade, Feb. 2005) sampled with Olivier MTL. Thanks, hopscotch!

May 31, 2005 Dark gold color with a thin head. Very hoppy and citrus laden aroma. Good malty start with a slight hit of pine and spice in the taste. It wasn’t nearly as much of a hops blast as I was expecting; a nice surprise.

May 29, 2005 Couleur ambrée aux reflets orangés, mi-opaques. Absence de mousse, quelques grosses bulles savonneuses. Arômes flirtant avec le céleri vert et le houblon. Un peu minérale, faible présence de DMS. Citron et lime semble être les seuls sous produits de la variété de houblon utilisé, ce qui en fait conséquemment une bière unidimensionnelle d’une grande banalité. Très astringente en bouche du début à la fin de l’étalement, sans aucun malt ni caramel pour venir contrebalancer cet avilissant jus de houblon.
