Poured into a Raftman tulip glass. Pours cloudy copper with a creamy tan head. Smells of citrus, yogurt, flowers, perfume and hay. Tastes malty and sweet with some citrussy undertones. Finshes of sweet oranges and malt. Mouthfeel is sugary. ratman197 (3266), Arvada, Colorado, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 22, 2006 Bomber poured a clear copper with a small, diminishing amber head. Aromas of pine, carmel, earthy hops and a hint of citrus. Palate was medium bodied and slightly resiny. Flavors of carmel, pine, earthy hops and light citrus with a lingering mildly bitter finish. Not as good as I remember from the brewery, might be an old bottle. dwyerpg (2553), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Feb 23, 2006 Hoppya aroma, and while it has less hops than the 1.5 version, this is fresher, smoother and better. A nice solid IPA worth drinking again and again. Beaver (600), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 19, 2006 22 oz bottle. Pours a slightly hazy copper-orange with a thin and frothy off white head that laces the glass.
The aroma is very fruity (tangerines and grapefruit) and slightly piney.
The flavor is sweet caramel and tangerines that leads to a slightly bitter finish and a pretty big bitter aftertaste. The mouthfeel is medium to full and pretty creamy.
Overall, a pretty good IPA. A bit on the sweet side for me - it goes from very sweet to a pretty bitter aftertaste. I like the flavors better blended. hopdog (5622), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA

Poured a dark and hazy amber color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of grapefruit, oranges, and light flowers. Tastes of grapefruit, oranges, grass and caramel. Has a nice sweet and bitter balance. JCW (1262), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 26, 2005 As Popeye would say about himself, this beer could say "I ams what I ams". This beer is a C hopped IPA, and it offers no surprises good or bad. Orange colored, moderate white head. Aroma of fresh cut grass and citrus, now tell me you are surprised! For and IPA it is moderately bitter and definitely has the body to back it up. Mixed of bitterness, sweetness, and hop flavors on the finish. A well made example of an IPA.

Aroma is a bit reserved, with hints of grapefruit, hops, and orange. Flavor is a rush of hops followed by a tapered sour orange. Hints of grapefruit are apparent throughout. Palate is satisfactory. A solid IPA that doesn’t overpower. jcwattsrugger (5581), Florida and, New Jersey, USA
