| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 3, 2009 Bottle at a friend’s house. Pours a brilliant orange. Bright aroma but I can’t pick out much other than citrus hops. Taste is bitter citrus with a good malt balance. Clean finish. Nothing really stands out for me on this one but not bad. georgekillian (205), USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 17, 2009 Decent IPA but not my favorite. Body / mouthfeel falls short of my expectations. Nice color and decent hop taste. Not my favorite IPA. brewski519 (415), Morrisville, North Carolina, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 17, 2009 12 oz bottle - pours and amber color with a decent whitish head. Aroma of citrus, hops and grass. Taste of orange/grapefruit and hops balanced out by some malt. Not quite as bitter as some IPA’s but it holds it own. Not a bad IPA - very drinkable. kassner (457), Wexford, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 12, 2009 On tap at magooes. Really nice Pale ale, with plenty of dry hops, just a little light on the fragrant types for an IPA, dark golden colormodest head that does not hold. blklab2007 (965), Connecticut, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 12, 2009 bottle poured a light amber in color with a thin white head that became a ring quickly. aroma has bitter citrus hops, honey like sweetness, and caramel malt. mouth feel is light with a nice brisk carbonation. flavor definitely has a hop smack but there is a decent amount of malt as well. citrus, resins, medium bitterness, caramel, and a nice lingering finish. solid session brew.
