Aug 14, 2008 Draft at Alehouse #1. Poured hazy copper with an average frothy white head that was mostly lasting with good lacing. Moderate to heavy sour citrus hoppy aroma. Medium body with a slick texture. moderate to heavy bittersweet flavor with a medium smooth bittersweet finish of moderate to long duration. A standout beer.

Jul 27, 2008 Had on Firkin at the Alehouse. Murky golden orange color. Smell was sweet and citrusy. Taste was definitely hoppy, which I dont normally care for, but it was also sweet, malty, and fruity, which made the hops tolerable. Slight bitter finish. Really, more enjoyable than I expected. This is not a favorite style of mine.

Milky apricot body with a creamy white head. Fresh grapefruit hop aroma. Flavor is also fresh and hoppy – citrus, fir tree. Slightly bitter finish.

Jan 5, 2008 Draft at the Alehouse. Pours very cloudy pale yellow/orange color with a bright white head. Looks like a wheat beer. The aroma on this is spectacular but a little subdued. It’s delicious but could use just a tad more strength. Citrusy hops, mostly of the peach variety shine through with a decent malt background. Taste is hoppy, significantly bitter, with a tingly mouthfeel. The citrus fruitiness makes its way to the taste as well. Nice and juicy. A fine IPA.

Dec 27, 2007 Appearance: Pours a hazy, pale orange body topped with a thin, white ring of bubbles.
Smell: Aromatic hop scent of citric-smelling citrus and pine needles.
Taste: Scant pale maltiness quickly turns to hops with flavors of grapefruit rinds and resinous pine along with a resounding bitterness. Dry finish with a long, lingering bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: A solid IPA with a sharp, snappy hop bitterness.

Dec 27, 2007 Hazy orange yellow color with a light head. The aroma is lovely. Lots of fruity hops (orange and tangerine are dominant with maybe a touch of grapefruit.) with a sweet undertone. The taste does not disappoint. Grapefruit hops with hints of orange. The malt backbone is not quite enough for me but it is there and does give you a nice pallet on which to play with the hops. Towards the finish you switch from fruit to a strong pine presence that lingers and really dries out your pallet. Full body with a nice dry finish. Very good, very hoppy!

huge sweet citrus hop aroma with the perfect sugary grapefruit character,

Dec 22, 2007 Growler: Pours a hazy dark golden with a well-lacing froth of white head. Aroma of big, fresh grapefruity citrusy and grassy hops and some pale malt. Body starts semi-sweet with a lot of crisp grassy grapefruity bittering and flavor hops toward a thinner bittersweet finish. A pretty nice IPA.
