Dec 15, 2009 Bottle at Olympen. Pours a slight hazy orange, big white soapy head. Plenty of lacing. Nice. Aroma is packed with tropical fruits. Grapefruit, passion fruit, apricot and perhaps some peach. Some bisquity malts barely detectable. They come forth a bit more when the brew warms. It could have used a tad more sweetness to balance it all out. Otherwise, the carbonation was pretty much spot on, sparkly but not overly so, just made this beer refreshing. Body was appropriate light to medium. Easy drinkin’.

Dec 15, 2009 Poured from a 12oz bottle into a int glass.
The color is light orange and pretty darn clear with about a finger of white foamy head and some slight lacing.
The smell has strong orange zest flavor. A bit of a pint of sugar in the nose, behind that is a slight lime flavor with some bitter hops.
The taste is a mix of some nice bitterness from the hops and some sweet citrus flavors, mainly orange but a little grapefruit and a little lemon or lime is present.
The feel of this beer is pretty light. It goes down well and just seems pretty smooth. Is tab bit carbonated so it does have a slight fizz to it. Overall a really great IPA.

Dec 11, 2009 Pours straw yellow-orange hazy color. Thick head.
Nose has hay, straw, dusty straw at that.
On palate is a surprising malt focus with the hops, almost honeyed malt with the hop assertiveness to balance. This ale strikes me as an american pale ale that is a little overhopped, not necessarily an American IPA.
Very appetizing finish though - keeps you yearing for the next sip. Nice.
