Sep 14, 2005 Typical cloudy yellow ipa coloring. This beer has a somewhat spicy nose, a nice white head with some lacing. The flavor is citrus followed by a nice bitter finish.

Sep 9, 2005 This is a Anderson Valley clone....classic Cali IPA. Heavier on the malt front make’s it not so great of an example but good otherwise. The alcohol burn makes it inferior to others but this is still a decent example of a Cali IPA.

Sep 7, 2005 Sampled from bottle. Acme pours clear orange-gold with a creamy, light-tan head and notable lacing. Aroma is floral/grapefruit citrus hops and hard candy. Flavor is nicely bitter with piney/citrus hops, toasted, bready malt and a bit of plum. Medium bodied, light to moderate carbonation. Bitterness lingers. This is a new beer for Oklahoma, and while it’s a far cry from what I’d consider a ’great IPA’, I’m happy to have it in the rotation. It’s worth a try.

Sep 4, 2005 Bottle - big floral hop nose, some grassy hops as well. It subsides as the head dies down. That head is white. It sits atop a dark straw colored body. I’m surprised by the flavor. A mellow hop flavor that gently yields to the sweet malt backbone. Very soft palate. Would love to try this one on cask!

Sep 3, 2005 Not a lot of aroma for the style, but what is there has a pleasnt new mown hay aroma. Very light color, absolutely clear with a compact head and decent lacing.
Flavor did not really have enough of a hoppy body, with a slight astringent quality.
Decent but not great IPA.

Aug 30, 2005 This beer is great! I absolutely love Old Rasputiin Inperial Stout from North Coast, and this is on par with that offering as an IPA. I think North Coast might be my favorite American brewery. Too bad I can only pick up Red Seal Ale regularly in my neighborhood.

Aug 21, 2005 Large white frothy head. Pretty good duration. Light carbonation. Light floral hoppy aroma with a hint of lime. Color is a medium gold. Primarily floral and lime in the flavor with a bit of biscuity malt. Finish is sort of fruity with a light hop bitterness. Ok but nothing special.
