Jul 14, 2005 Smells beautiful, like a light IPA. The head is extremely hoppy. In fact the whole beer is so extremely hoppy it makes me think of Stones Ruination IPA. However, that is more than okay in my book, since I love IPAs. This one is truly excellent.

Oct 3, 2005 Some unusual flavors on nose and mouth for an ipa, a touch of diesel or rubber, tar, and eucalyptus. Mouth has all of the above with a touch of smoke, pineapple, and nuttyness. Tasted at room temperature, when the bottle was opened it immediately overflowed though the beer had not been shaken. I really liked this one, was off the beaten path for an ipa.

Feb 25, 2004 This is a very nice IPA. Amber colored, long lasting head. Very citrusy grapefruit aroma. The hops overwhelm the flavor. Smooth bitterness going down. Hops linger in the mouth long after swallowed.

Oct 3, 2005 This brew seems atypical for the style, the nose revealing some interesting characteristics - smells a bit like a tire, though somehow not in a bad way. Not much body, citrus malt and good hops presence in the finish. As it opened up it became more interesting and enjoyable.

Nov 3, 2002 Floral hop nowe. Golden color, light for an IPA. Smooth milky feel. Only gentle hoppiness with neat edge at end. Acidic citrus stays with you a long time.

May 21, 2004 Light orange color. Medium white foamy head. Aroma is fruity and citrusy. A medium to full bodied IPA. Malts are fruity and sweet. Hops are very evident, grapefruity and piney. Still the balance holds up, a little over balanced to the hops, but not overly so. Very smooth taste. Hints of orange peel as well. A nice hoppy IPA. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

Sep 25, 2005 (22oz bottle, identified as India Pale Ale, with same ABV and same description on the side) Big and fluffy off-white head atop a lightly hazed amber body. Aroma is moderately sweet, herbal, grapefruit, spice, floral. Taste is medium sweet, herbal, pine, grapefruit, floral, mint. Watery light-medium body. Big flavor that needs a bigger body to contain it, though still quite good.
