| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 21, 2008 Draught. High creamy and lasting white head. Clear yellow body. Dry fruity lemon grapefruit aroma and flavor. High carbonation and a long bitter aftertaste. Gypsy19 (620), California, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Oct 16, 2008 A little weak for an IPA in my opinion, but decent overall. It’s a very ordinary IPA, indistinguishable from so many other IPAs, though a little less flavorful than most also. Drinkable; Nothing more, nothing less. kmweaver (2440), Sebastopol, California, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 8, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours a bright, clear, medium tarnished copper color; mixed-bubbled white head with good retention and lacing. Basic earthy and citrus bitterness in the aroma; a touch watery. Medium mouthfeel: lots of chewy, slightly astringent earthy and citrus-laden hoppiness upfront; very light metallic note present, with a basic candy sugar malt character; strong bitterness and a touch of astringency; slightly off. Medium finish: citrus and earthy bitterness, basic core maltiness, and some floral notes. iowaherkeye (1851), Bakersfield, California, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 5, 2008 22oz bomber, stamped A092008--something about September 20th? Hopefully not the best by date. Purchased @ Bottle Barn. Aroma has pine and pine air fresheners, light perfume, and some watered-down caramel malts. Clear golden with a one finger off-white head, fading to a think film and thick ring. Flavor leans more malty, though not watered-down this time. There is still the soft pine notes, and floral perfume does come across a bit in the finish, which is semi-dry. Bitterness peaks at a 3-4. Moderate carbonation with a medium body. A good IPA. Not a West Coast hop bomb, but good. fiulijn (7150), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 5, 2008 Draught at the Yardhouse, Las Vegas Deep blond color. Light hop aroma. some caramel flavor with light sweetness, some hopping. Unoffensive. jimbowood (950), Athens, Georgia, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 4, 2008 bottle from bevmo in Tempe. A nice ipa, but nothing spectacular. Mild hop presence makes this an optimal ipa for coors drinkers. 0o9i (334), Reno, Nevada, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Oct 3, 2008 Bottles. It’s a fizzy yellow beer with a bit of kick. Clear, too light to be honey body with a white head and OK lace. Aroma is wanting with a touch of hops, a touch of malts. Mouth is decent with medium body and a relatively dry finish. Flavor includes mild hops, a touch of sugar, and that’s about it. It’s a sad IPA, but a decent beer when I just "want a beer" without much care about what it is. Aquilo (259), California, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 26, 2008 Lovely clear golden orange color with a fluffy white head. Smell is very sweet with apples and cherries. Flavor is weird. It’s predominantly hops, with a musty herbal taste that doesn’t need to be here. It overpowers any fruit flavor, and I was expecting a BIG fruit flavor. Oh, well.
