dwyerpg (2519), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Sep 29, 2007 Smells isn’t too hoppy or floral or citrusy, but okay. Nice meringue head that tastes good. Flavor is dominated by bittering hops, too much so. Still the very aftertaste is somewhat smooth and enjoyable. Good, just not great. troyc (1173), Lubbock, Texas, USA Sep 22, 2007 (Bottle) Pours a dark golden color with a small head. Sweet, citrusy aroma. Nice solid palate, with average carbonation. Balanced flavor, which increases this beer’s drinkability. Nothing too wild here, but a very good IPA overall. nuplastikk (1158), Madison, Wisconsin, USA Sep 21, 2007 Attractive golden hue. Crisp and hoppy. Reasonable alcohol level makes it quite refreshing and easy drinking for an American India Pale Ale. Sweet malt glimmers through the hoppy taste. Lots of floral and fruity tastes to enjoy. malrubius (969), Valley Stream, New York, USA Sep 21, 2007 12 ounce bottle in pint glass. Clear golden with puffy off-white head and lace. Lemony citrus hop aroma. Mild sweetness, grapefruityness, with strong citrusy hop finish. Medium body and carbonation. I like this type of IPA. Yum. Headbanger (1574), Aurora, Illinois, USA Sep 19, 2007 12oz bottle-A nice clear golden body with a nice white head and an aroma of hops, grapefruit, and citrus. Taste of the same but not as powerful in the hops as other IPA’s. RSRIZZO (1343), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA Sep 16, 2007 Had on 8/25/1998. Color is a lightly hazed gold with good carbonation, but a light head. Aroma is full of hops with a slight sour scent in the back. Taste is mild yet bitter. Starting off with a light body the bitterness can be felt right away. It goes down with a flat feel on the back of your mouth. The finish has a light body but a strong bitterness and a fair amount of hop flavor. brigg (213), Charlottesville, Virginia, USA Sep 10, 2007 (bottle) Orange body with big, off-white head. A full, floral nose with sweet orange, grass, and hops. Flavor is very hoppy but smooth start to finish. Grapefruit flavor with moderate sweetness. Medium bodied and very drinkable. mistersinalin (367), St. Paul, Minnesota, USA Sep 10, 2007 Not the Maharaja, but a very nice hoppy beer. Good smells and a nice end. I could try and get sick of IPAs and this wouldn’t do it. A good beer to watch Monday Night Football with.
