egajdzis (2879), Terrapin, Pennsylvania, USA May 11, 2008 Poured a clear amber color with a small, off white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of floral hops, caramel malts, grass, light toast, and some pine as well. Taste of caramel, pine, light tobacco, citrus fruits, and a spicy / woody hoppiness in the finish.
JoeMcPhee (3628), Jackson Heights, New York, USA Jun 28, 2008 Thanks to PilsnerPeter for this one. After I managed to smash the first growler I bought of this, I was glad to see it again. Beautiful deep amber-golden beer. Soft caramelly aroma along with some grapefruit and light tropical pineapple hoppiness. Soft palate, chewy and fruity and a fairly chewy lingering resiny bitterness. It’s quite nice really. sleepylopes (255), New York, USA Jun 24, 2008 bitter sweet in flavor and aroma with citrus and butter toffee. well balanced between the malt and hop components and well carbonated. Eyedrinkale (3091), Beer Town, New York, USA Jun 21, 2008 Growler shared by PilsPete. Hops are pretty earthy and dusty, slightly stinging. The pale malts are pretty tasty too, balancing it out. Decent stuff. mkobes (2014), New York, USA Jun 15, 2008 Growler. Deep copper in color with a little white head. Hoppy citrusy aroma. Orange, grapefruit hoppy notes. Sweet malty and hoppy flavor. Caramel notes. Sweet tasting. Light to medium bodied. Finish is bitter. Nice. beastiefan2k (1055), Hicksville, New York, USA Jun 15, 2008 Going around twice on this beer, once a growler at Hoboken gathering and just today a sampler at the brewpub. Its a pretty basic IPA, a bit musky and tea like hops. Low on the bitterness with a bit of a slick and sweet malt presence. Decent stuff.
