Feb 22, 2005 Light bronze with a creamy head and awesome lace. Avery knows how to give it’s drinkers good head! Mellow hops that are mostly citrus and flowery. Some orange and the crystal malts give a good backing. The grapefruit comes out for the citrus in the flavors. Nice hop bill. Again it is nicely balanced. The malts are not too pervasive. Tangy with a lingering maltiness on the tongue which finishes bitter.

Apr 26, 2007 A light and delicious pale ale. Aroma of floral hops. Pour was a dark gold with no head. Taste was all floral hops with a hint of malt in the background.

Nov 23, 2007 Pour is a orange with a small white head. Aroma is a nice dry hop with not much else coming though but that is a good thing. Flavor is super hoppy and bitter with some malts coming through. A very nice example of the style.

Jun 10, 2007 Updated: Sep 29, 2008Bottle. Clear gold with a huge, over-carbonated head that lasts with good foamy lace. Aroma is grapefruit and pine-grassy hops. Flavor is good balance of sweet malt and citrus hops; gets increasingly hoppier and ends with a nutty-cocoa and resin-crisp aftertaste. Smooth, dryish and easy, with surprisingly little tingle for all the hops and carbonation. Nice, widely available AIPA.

May 1, 2004 Bottle. I liked this one quite a bit. It pours clear amber-orange with an average sized creamy head that mostly diminished but left good lacing. Aroma is light bready malts, with a heavy grapefruit hops that jumped out assertively. Moderately sweet with a mild caramel malt flavor upfront. Big bitter hops come on strong leaving a crisp, dry hop finish. Light to medium body, watery texture with lively carbonation and astringent feel in the finish. Nice beer, but could use a touch more maltiness to balance the hops galore!

Jan 30, 2006 Great IPA with solid roasted malt base and VERY bitter grapefruit and pine hop bitterness. This is one of my favorite session type IPAs.

Jan 10, 2008 12 oz. bottle pours a clear amber hue with a nice off white head. Has a strong grapefruit aroma. Nice medium body. The taste is a strong grapefruit bitter flavor with a malt sweetness that sneaks in the back door. Finishes with a bittersweet after taste.
Very nice.2003

May 1, 2005 Updated: May 6, 2005Large white head. Frothy on top with good carbonation. Nice lacing. Great aroma. Very fruity hops with a excellent mix of peaches and pears. Could sit here and smell it all night. But what fun would that be. Color is a medium golden orange. Light bodied. Crisp and smooth with a great balance. Plenty of hops in there. Bitterness shows up at the finish and lingers for a while. More fruit in the flavor. Very easy drinking. An excellent IPA.
