Aroma of fresh piny hops and a good caramel malty backbone. Starts fairly full-bodied and caramely sweet with nice grapefruity hoppy complexity and balance before a crisp bittersweet finish. A pretty good IPA. kp (8500), Woodstock, Georgia, USA

Good pine aroma but this was out of balance to me and the piney hop bitterness needed more malt balance to pull everything off. Hank1980 (764), Athens, Georgia, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 26, 2008 I got a big piney hop aroma. Bitter grapefruit and citrus flavors. Big hop profile but a slightly girtty and muddy texture.You can call this either a really hoppy IPA or a not so sweet double IPA. aracauna (2391), Georgia, USA
