| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 2/5 | 16/20 | Jun 5, 2009 On tap at the brewpub. Gummy, juicy, and sticky. Fragrant. Copper. Sticky, a bit sweet, but lots of bitterness. Tangy. Good hop cone character. A little sweet, but otherwise rounded and solid. This had really awesome hop flavor, but the sugars kind of overwhelm somehow and I can’t dig that.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 5, 2009 On tap at Valley Inn. Body is a medium/dark amber with a creamy head. Wonderful hops aromas of citrus and pine are a highlight. Flavor is a little thin on malt but very good with a nice grapefruit finish with a piney edge. kramer (2465), Sunbury, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 20, 2009 On tap, at brewpub. Pours a hazy copper with a small off-white foamy head. Lots of green citric and piney hops in the nose with a little caramel maltiness after it warmed up some. Rather harshly bitter up front, but as it warmed it did get a little smoother. Very leafy and raw. Toasted and light caramel malt on the finish. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a sticky resiny hop finish. Moderate soft carbonation. Overall, a little on the harsher side with the hoppiness, this could benefit from a better more subtle mix of hops. doubleipa (224), Georgia, USA

Poured a cloudy orangeish gold in color with a nice medium sized head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of citrus, grapefruit, and light caramel.
