Golden amber with a moderate white head and some lacing. Nice aroma, honey, caramel malts, bold hops and oranges. Malt flavors are almost overpowered by the hop bitterness, but oddly enough it finishes sweet. Pleasant mouthfeel, medium body and carbonated just beyond creamy. Nice IPA

Oct 6, 2008 Bottle. Pours a clear dark gold with one finger off-white head and spotty lacing. Nose is sweet malt and light citrus. Taste is caramel, tangerine and light grapefruit with a mild resin finish. Medium mouth feel. Nothing earth shattering, but a decent session-able IPA.

Oct 5, 2008 Not a huge IPA, but very drinkable. It’s got a muted hop profile, but it’s more balanced than some.

Oct 5, 2008 Hazy light orange/sunshine color. one finger thickly foamed head. Nice lacing.
I would not say this had the "punch" of an IPA. It was crisp , refreshing , nicely but not overly hopped. Nice citrus tang to it. and a great session beer. One of the best pale ales I’ve had. Kudos! $9 a six.

Oct 4, 2008 Super-hoppy nose is lemony and herbal. Dry and light palate. There are enough hops and alcohol here to make you think this is an imperial, and the beer is certainly aggressive. A great bargain and a fruity IPA.

Oct 1, 2008 I was not sure what to think of this IPA (new to beer tasting) The normal IPA taste i was used to, but with a more balanced taste and hoppy taste. Poured with a gold color and thick white head. Tingled my mouth. Would definitely purchase again in the future!
