May 16, 2008 Thanks to Stfun. Cloudy coper color. Smell of hops, malt, light citrus, orange peal and some lemon grass. Taste of a big malt background with pine, hops, orange zest and decent dry bitterness.

Apr 25, 2008 I typically don’t enjoy IPA’s, however, this flavor was not a bitter as most IPA’s. It smells and looks good. Not as strong as I’d expect, but a good smell. The flavor was delicious, however, it clearly is not the flavor of an IPA. I really don’t enjoy how it stays on my tounge, it feels coated with bitterness. I was impressed with this beer from the standpoint that it tastes, smells, and looks good. However, it is not quite correct for an IPA. Also, it doesn’t sit on my palate well. Overall, a very good beginner’s IPA.

Apr 11, 2008 Bottle courtesy of Indybigtom: Poured a cloudy orangey color ale with a nice foamy head with OK retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of bitter dry hops is dominating with some light caramel malt. Taste is also dominated by some dry bitter hops with no floral or citrus notes and some very light caramel malt. Body is quite full with some good carbonation.

Apr 9, 2008 Clear light copper color with a tall lasting ecru head. Pale malt with earthy hops undertones. Some citric hops in the background with a sweeter tint, oranges and rudy red grapefruit. The scents seem a bit thin with no real depth. Lots of citrus flavors with tang and just a hint of butterscotch. Finish is lightly sharp with some pine tar and biting citric pith.LInger has a touch of malt and caramel to help smooth things out. I find this closer to an APA.

Mar 20, 2008 Bottle. Tinny orange in the nose, fruity, herbal, minty even. Taste is somewhat clean pils malt but has a vegetal staleness, and hop charachter is mild: mint leaves, navel oranges, lemon, floral flavors, a little bit astringent and sharp at times. Decent overall.
