| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 1, 2008 Bottle from strykzone. Pours an amberish/gold color with a medium sized whitish head. Aromas of malt, honey, cider and some mild hops. Flavor is sweet and lacks any big IPA punch. It isn’t a horrible beer, just not a good representation of the style. beerbuzzmontreal (2916), Montreal, Quebec, Canada
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Sep 29, 2008 Clear golden pour with a thin white head. Aroma of caramel and hops. Average flavor of hops, caramel, bitterness in the end, after a while some butterscotch is felt. The body is medium and oily while the carbonation is soft. Boring. esjaygee (1578), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 13, 2008 About the only thing about this beer worth mentioning, is that it looked good in the glass. Some hops, which is always good, but it finished with an empty flavor, if that makes sense. msante79 (839), Orland Hills, Illinois, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Sep 12, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours light golden amber with nice and fluffy white head. Aroma is hops and malt with touch of citrus. Flavor is hops, pine, citurs and sweet malt. Malt profile did not match up well with hops. Balance was just not there. A shame as it looked the part out of the bottle. grimreeser (797), Minnesota, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 23, 2008 Bottle from Vintage Cellar. Pours bright gold with a 7-finger head. Aroma is somewhat yeasty malt over resin and fruity hops. Medium plus body with very smooth, soft carbonation. Flavor is pine and citrus. The malt is rather subdued. A whole heck of non-harsh hop. Nice bitter finish. It’s like not all that bitter, but it’s all that bitter. kmeves (1080), Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, USA
