| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Sep 14, 2008 Pours a clear golden hue with a frothy white head with decent lacing. Aromas of wheat, hay, a light citrus and some more grains...Lacking much hop character in the aroma.
Mouth feel is light bodied. Flavors similar to the aromas with a semi dry finish. mmmmm... lacking something. kenb (1100), Oregon, USA

Nice enough looking IPA clear orange with a good thick off white head.
Nice mainlly citric hop aromas,some piesih undertones.
Flavour is actually more balanced than the aroma, the piney hops are there, but theres a good malt balance.
Ok on the palate, average for style,
THis is by no means a top rate IPA, but its pretty good drinking! AleDrinker (1090), Sunnyvale, California, USA
| 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. kmeves (1081), Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 12, 2008 Pours a transparent bright bronze with a thin white head and a little lacing. Aroma is sweet grainy malts and some lemon citrus hops. Flavor is sweet and malty with some earthy pine bittering hops, probably not enough for an IPA. Light bitter finish. elihapa (1070), Honolulu, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Aug 23, 2009 Bottle, with screw-off top (boo). Pours light gold, clear in appearance, and with a small white head. Good lacing in pint glass. Aroma is slightly lemony, but the emphasis here is on grassy hops. Flavor follows suit: a very clean hop bitterness, matched with a spicy grass ‘n’ lemon flavor. No sign of malt (read caramel, sugar or red fruit), which is how I like my IPAs. Kind of thin, though. Overall, this is a deal of an IPA at $6.99 a sixer, but it falls short due to an overall lack of complexity and flavor. rustychiles (1068), Mesa, Arizona, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 7, 2008 Pours a see through amber with a small fizzy head. Slight aroma of hops and malt, really a pretty weak aroma for a IPA. Taste of malt, and a slight hint of a hop and bitterness at the finish. Very watery mouthfeel. This was just okay for me.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 5, 2008 Dry, raspy, herbal style. Some metallic dryness works well. Middle weight in terms of flavour intensity but its well made.
