Feb 12, 2006 Pours cloudy golden color with a thin white head that hangs in there. Nose is pretty and floral with some malty sweetness. Flavor while a little off and thin has a solid bitterness.

Feb 10, 2006 Aw, man, great head, just pure white. The ale pours with bubbles all amuck, and has a great golden color. The aroma is sweet, and kind to thte nostril. The ale goes down smooth and hits witha nice clean buzz. A+

Feb 9, 2006 Poured cloudy orange with a white head. Aroma is floral, grass, and pine hops. Well balanced with the flavor being grassy and sweet floral hops. There is a touch of sweet orange in the flavor too. Incrediably smooth.

Feb 6, 2006 Pours cloudy with a nice lace clinging to the sides of the glass. The aroma is subtle but with very nice hop flavors. The body has nice hint of citrus with a shot of grapefruit hitting you at the end. Overall, a very nicely balanced drink. Well done indeed.

Jan 31, 2006 Pours a hazy, deep copper hue and makes a thick creamy white head that slowly diminishes into a thin layer of tiny dense bubbles which never fades. Dense Belgian lacing clings to the sides of my glass. Some pine and citrus aromas appear from a quick swirl of the glass, there’s a hint of sweet malts as well. Flavor hits the tongue hard with a mouth-puckering strong bitterness and then the sweet malted backbone rushes in to bring a wonderful balance. Massive herbal and grassy hop flavors mixed with tart grapefruit citrus and pine with just the right ammount of caramel malt balance to make this one taste as good as a west coast IPA can taste. Bottle conditioning gives this a nice creamy texture on the palate and then closes with an astringent dry finish. A really well done IPA in the west coast style

Jan 29, 2006 Bottle: pours orange with a small white head. Fairly large citrusy hop aroma. Slight dough. Flavor is mostly hops with citrus and a touch of malt sweetness. Decent IPA that finishes with just a slight bitterness.

Jan 27, 2006 Tap @ Barclay’s. Orange gold color with minimal head. Floral with a slightly resiny nose. Crisp and light, yet decently hopped. I wasn’t blown out of the water, but it tasted good.

Jan 24, 2006 Thank you BuckDich! Golden with orange tints, off-white head. Nice aroma of medicinal herbs, can’t pin it down but I’ve smelled an herb that smells just like this! Crisp nearly lager-like feel yet has a strong hop flavor, pine and apricot come to mind. A palate cleansing beer that has a light feel and a refreshing bitter bite. I could (and would like to) drink this by the pitcher on a hot summer day. Not very complex or world class but still a good "fresh" tasting beer and great to refresh your tastebuds after a thick barleywine and some cheese!
