| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 3, 2007 Updated: Feb 16, 2009great hop aroma. pours a reddish amber with a big offwhite head. lots of pine in the flavor and finish. the finish lasts forever. sort of thin bodied for an IPA but that’;s not so bad in my book. malty and chewy, lots of balance in this one while still having big hops. it’s missing something to make it truly special, but it is some good stuff. kwoeltje (1320), Manchester, Missouri, USA

Not as hoppy as they make it sound but a good looking and good tasting beer. might be one of my new favorite american ipas. KAggie97 (2452), Ugly, Hot, and Humid Spring, Texas, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 23, 2007 Bottle. Pours an average cheddar orange with a nice head and lacing. Aroma of grapefruit and strawberry; the sweet offset takes away from the nose, in my opinion. Flavor of grapefruit, pine, and slight lemon/lime makes up for its aromatic shortcomings. Mouthfeel is a bit thin; I’d like a little more syrupy feel to it. Overall, a great IPA that’s worth a second glance. STEPHENDR (478), California, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 17, 2007 Poured a nice amber color with big head and good lacing. Aroma was very enjoyable, grapefruit and other citrus flavors (orange). Flavor was of orange and grapfruits some floral hops didn’t have the greatest malt backbone. Good but not amazing.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 10, 2007 Updated: Jun 9, 2007Pours a nice golden orange with a white, fluffy, mid-sized head that lingers for a while. Aroma is big on citrus and hops. Also evergreen and slight hay. Flavor starts with hay and moves to full on hops, though it’s not as bitter as I had expected. Finish is bitter, though. Mouth is smooth, maybe a little under-carbonated. A solid IPA, but not outstanding. I would have liked a more complex flavor.
