| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Nov 5, 2007 Pours a clear golden orange color with a fluffy off-white head that reduces in a short while. Laces sporadically. Aromas of perfumey tangerine. Flavors are weak and watery. Thin malt body, mildly toasty. Hop character is muted and does not meld well with the maltiness at all. Grassy and tangerine perfume aftertaste. Moderately bitter. Saarlander (1577), Rancho Cucamonga, California, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 5, 2007 Bomber from a local store. Some nice head on this one, decent flavor, not a hop bomb at all, some malt to it, Fruit, but an enjoyable flavor, good drinker, under rated OSLO (826), Perth, Australia
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Oct 31, 2007 [Bottle, thanks Skyview] Pours golden with a small white head. Aroma is floral hops--almost like a bad perfume, and malt. Taste is about the same, but a fair amount sweeter, and maybe with a hint of fruit--strawberry maybe? Thin mouthfeel. Not that good. riversideAK (2685), Shoreline, Washington, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 24, 2007 Light gold color. Thin white head. Lightly grapefruity aroma. It’s got some citrus and a little sweetness, but its not very assertive. Not alot going on here. Pretty boring IPA, but I dont expect alot out of Alaskan in terms of assertive hoppiness. jcr (1149), Jasper, Indiana, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Oct 23, 2007 Dark yellow and cloudy body, small, frothy head. Citrus/pine/resin nose with some light maltiness in the background. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly to moderatley bitter. Tastes of grapefruit with hints of orange rind. Medium body and watery texture. Lively carbonation. The finish is lightly acidic. Nice enough, but nothing beyond ordinary.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 15, 2007 I was surprised at the quality of this ipa. The brewery isn’t known for hoppiness in any of their beer so I was pleasantly surprised when this nectar hit my palate. Nice floral and citrusy hop aroma. Nice smooth bitterness. Decent beer.
