DannyP (29), Connecticut, USA Feb 7, 2009 Pours a golden color, VERY clear with a nice, white, but quickly dissipating head.
Aroma is light, almost non-existant but what’s perceived is floral, with a touch of malt in the nose as well. What’s there is great in terms of aroma, I would like to see it amped up a bit.
I really wanted to love this brew, and I really tried. It seems as all of the right components are there, at much smaller percentages that I’d like to see them. It’s all there in this little brew, just needs to be amped up quite a bit. THEN, and only then will this be contender.
21iceman40 (1731), vienna, West Virginia, USA Feb 5, 2009 This is an aight ipa. It isnt huge on the aroma, kinda light and floraly with a bit of the citrus going on. The body is not really powerful, but not really watery and weak either. This is a decent session ipa, could use a little more hop kick for my liking though. bu11zeye (5430), Frisco, Texas, USA Feb 4, 2009 (12oz. bottle) Pours a clear yellow body with a small white head.
