| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 7, 2009 Pours an amberish color with a copper hue and the off white head has lacing with the pour. There is a lot of action with some yeast suspension. The taste is crisp with grapefruit hops and a caramel malt background. The mouthfeel is balanced with the balance of bitterness and alcohol with the malt smoothness. Very drinkable bitter type of IPA. Rciesla (3770), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 22, 2009 Bottle at Irish Rover, Louisville. Aroma was "hops out the wazoo" which actually came out of my mouth. Not as hoppy as Hoptimus, but a contender. Cloudy head with low carbonation. Hoppy flavor, shocker, with citrus and perhaps even cherries? Palate was very lively. Had this back to back with Two Hearted Ale, and actually liked this one better.
