| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 13, 2009 12oz bottle from Lukas Liquors in Lone Tree. Pours golden with white head. Aroma is grassy hops, bready malts with light citrus. Flavor is citrus, hops, and some malt. Flavor is much more present than the aroma. Nice carbonation. Nothing speacial but cheers to my first beer from Alaska. esjaygee (1519), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jun 8, 2009 Thanks Shawntana. Golden yellow with a large white head that leaves some decent lacing. Aroma of pine, citrus and some bready malts. Taste of citrus, especially grapefruit and some sweet malt with some twigs mixed in. Finishes up moderately bitter and that bitterness tends to last awhile. Decent, but not spectacular. Alasdair (76), New Zealand
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 5, 2009 citrus, pineapple aroma. Big pillowy head. Citrus, resin flavour, with more-ish finish of honey, marmalade and a rounded bitterness. Slightly mineral finish. Very easy drinking. TheGrandMaster (1857), Auckland, New Zealand
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 5, 2009 Bottle (in NZ), pours orange gold with a filmy head. Strong hop aroma of juicy fruit. Plenty of hops on the palate, deliciously citrus and moreish, with an earthy finish. KnN (721), Greenbelt, Maryland, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 23, 2009 Pours a clear golden color with a thin white head. Aroma was slightly hoppy, nothing overwhelming. Also some bread and yeast notes. Flavor was also pretty underwhelming, really mild hops and something a bit metallic. Not terribly impressed. illidurit (876), Santa Cruz, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 23, 2009 Pours a crystal clear orange-gold with a nice beige cap of foam. Aroma is soft and sweet, with notes of peach, orange, and bubblegum. A bit too faint and sweet for me. Candied lemon wedge flavor with some pithy grapefruit and a pale malt finish with medium bitterness. A little sweet overall but the hops are bright and the bitterness is solid and unastringent. scoth (274), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 20, 2009 Pours clear amber-gold, with a thin white head, fine lacing. Strong pine aroma, with some grass, dough and caramel underneath. Medium body, velvety, lightly dry. The malt flavors are subtle, caramel, white-bread, turning into citrus and a sweet grapefruit finish. Mild bitter pine-resin aftertaste. Very drinkable. alagnak (335), Littleton, Colorado, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 18, 2009 Bomber - great nose, crisp pine with some citrus (lemon?) - tastes as it smells, but a bit more subdued and a little watery. Solid IPA, nothing special, but I felt like having another immediately, so bonus points for that and the price.
