| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 31, 2008 Pours a hazy orange-gold with a big, rocky white head. Thick lacing. Rich, resiny aroma packed with wet pine. Some orange peel and grapefruit as well. If I didn’t know any better, it looks and smells like a Double IPA. The taste is more reserved, but in a good way. Earthy, resiny hops with a biscuity malt back. The grapefruit is present, but in a more unrefined, unripe version. Liked it. Kind of veggie, but sour-bitter. Good IPA. maugus4ever (121), Winston-Salem, North Carolina, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 28, 2008 Pours a clear copper color with a white head. Nice hoppy aroma. Hop taste upfront with a nice malty finish. I liked this one. durhambeer (1210), Durham, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 25, 2008 Bottle. Clear golden pour with fizzy white head. Crisp hoppy aromas of mild citrus and resin. Similar taste with a decent amount of malt to back it up, more so on the finish. A tad soapy but the malt at the finish saves it. Solid. ucusty (1887), Wake Forest, North Carolina, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 19, 2008 Pours golden with a white head. Good, solid ipa. Drinkable and pretty tasty. Magjayran (1379), Durham, North Carolina, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 17, 2008 This is a solid IPA. Pretty amber color with a medium white head. This is one of those balanced IPAs with a biting citrusy start and a sweet malty finish. A touch of caramel. Good. moelikebeer (219), St. Paul, Minnesota, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 13, 2008 Bottle. Clear golden pour with a thick white head that dissipated quickly. More malt sweetness than hoppiness in the aroma. Flavor also pretty sweet, with more hoppiness, both fruity and piney. Pretty light flavor, but very drinkable. satan165 (577), River Grove, Illinois, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 2/5 | 8/10 | 2/5 | 19/20 | Nov 28, 2008 the term ’floral’ sometimes gets thrown around on any beer that smells of hops. but as far as im concerned, there is a specific hop aroma character that defines that adjective -- and this is it! huge lacing as well. this has the real kind of freshness that you see in two hearted and real world class IPAs, i think this is actually underrated.
