Jun 19, 2006 Draught at the brewpub. Amber coloured. Clear. Sweet pungent hop aromas with clearly a lot of malts. Nose is very sweet. Suprisingly little citrus notes as this peer is supposedly hopped with Amarillo hops. Cloyingly sweet malty body. Not really a typical IPA. It also does not have the effervesence that it really should have, so the hops are lot in the maltiness. Finishes syrupy. Low in carbonation.

Jun 4, 2006 On tap @ C.B. Potts Broomfield poured a clear copper with a lasting off white head. Aromas of pine, orange and a hint of carmel. Palate was medium bodied and dry. Flavors of light carmel, pine, earthiness and a hint of citrus with a lingering bitter finish.

May 23, 2006 Rosemont, IL. Underrated. Subdued hop aroma; fresh. Excellent sheet lace. Slightly hazy amber color. Quite good. Initially I wanted more sweetness for balance, but toward the end of the glass the balance comes as the sweetness intensifies. Pretty solid. I’m impressed. I had 3 brews tonight at the brewery in Rosemont and all 3 were not only drinkable but well above average. Neither were outstanding, but all were quite good.

May 10, 2006 Sampled on draft at Humperdinks in Arlington, Tx. Quite a pedestrian IPA. Could benefit from a more bitter flavor profile. The hops used in this ale are quite piney and herbal - not my favorite for the style, but flavor hops are certainly present for those wanting a hop fix. A decent beer.

Apr 8, 2006 Pours nice from a take out growler. Amber with off white head. Mild hop aroma, weak hop bitterness overpowered by malty sweetness for an IPA. Good drinkable beer, but really cannot be compared to a trad IPA.

Feb 15, 2006 Amber ale with plenty of hopiness. A pleasant citrus afermath (grapefruit, I decided) from the hops. Very drinkable.

Dec 18, 2005 Ram in Schaumburg. Deep golden color, more coppery than most IPAs. I think I had a different one than most here, as Schaumburg uses Amarillos in their IPA. Big fruit character, nice amarillo nose of fruit rollups balanced by a very nice bitterness. Something about this made it incredibly drikable. Definitely the best thing about this place. Nice.
