Nov 24, 2009 Botte into pint glass. Slightly cloudy with a one finger head. Aroma was mildly hoppy with a definite grapefruit tone. Feels medium bodied in the mouth. Mild hops, but needs a little more malt to help the balance. Middle of the road beer, but not bad.

Nov 24, 2009 12oz - One finger of off-white head sits over a cloudy orange liquid. Solid but mild hops on nose. Some malt and a waxy hops hit on palate. Bitter finish missing the malt needed to balance it. The waxy hit really turned me off.

Nov 7, 2009 From a 12 oz bottle into a pint glass. Pours dark golden with an inch of thick foam. Minor but noticable lacing on the glass. Smell is of grapefruity hops. Mouthfeel is dead on, not too light but not too syrupy either. This beer is the most grapefruity hopped beer I’ve ever tasted. Usually there’s some pine or lemon or other citrus flavors mixed in, but this beer is straight grapefruit. There is malt that backs up the grapefruit hops but it’s just there for the mouthfeel and doesn’t come in for the taste. This is a very good beer. It’s got that good IPA hoppy skunk to it. The best way to describe it is half way between an IPA and an IIPA; call it an IPA+ with an entire grapefruit crammed in each bottle. Can’t wait to try the Double Simcoe!

Nov 4, 2009 Pours copper-orange with creamy off white head, excellent lacing. The aroma is hops and some maltiness. kinda hops and bread. The flavor is creamy, light, lacking.

Nov 3, 2009 Great mid-range color and foam! Nose closed in at first but yields hop aroma as it warms - but not intensely. Mouthfeel is fine as is malt balance (but on the lighter side). Pleasant and consumable but not my favorite style of IPA - I like ’em bigger and hoppier!
