| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Feb 2, 2008 Pours a deep gold color with copper-orange highlights. Pour creates a 1/2" fluffy white head which quickly dissapates to thin swirls of filmy foam. Hops come to the forefront in the aroma with notes of citrus rind, pine needles and spice against a faint sweet background of caramel malts, honey and cookie dough. Mouthfeel was smooth and creamy with a fine carbonation, but seemed to finish somewhat thin and a tad watery. Crisp and refreshing hoppy flavor profile of fresh orange, grapefruit, pine and herbal tea come to the forefront followed by a backing of sweet crystal malts, light caramel, clover honey and floral notes. A moderate hop resin bitterness coates the tongue for the finish. Although perhaps not a memorable American IPA, still well done a worth a try. muzzlehatch (4427), Burlington, Vermont, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 27, 2006 Draught pint at The Moan and Dove, August 2006. Medium hazy amber with a moderate lasting white head and some purty lacing....stinky, pungent hoppy aroma, bathroom odors (the good ones if you understand), wet spruce and leather/suede, really interesting....sweet, nicely full body, juicy with a bit of that raw pungency but also some nice sharp fruitiness and a strong acerbic grassiness towards the finish....low to moderate carbonation, very solid and better than I’d expected.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 28, 2005 Pours a clear, bright copper orange with a thin white head with light whispy lacing. Has a bold, fresh, grapefruity hop aroma with a touch of dry biscuity malt. Starts relatively thick, full and bittersweet with lots of hop presence and decent malty balance. Finishes crisp and lightly sweet with hints of citrus and hop resin. A very enjoyable and drinkable IPA. goldtwins (4084), Nesconset, New York, USA
