Dec 18, 2007 12 oz bottle, pours a clear dark brown color with copious head. Aroma is hoppy but perhaps the smell of alcohol was too overpowering. Taste, like the smell, was again very crisp and refreshing but tasted a little too much like rubbing alcohol. Palate was very agreeable for an IPA. I liked the regular lager better, but overall a good brew.

Dec 14, 2007 Bottle from utobeer via cgarvieuk. Aroma is dominated by toffee malts, peppery, citrus and grassy hops balancing. Taste is similar very pluckering mouthfeel, the after taste actually feels like you’ve had too much pepper in your soup. A nice ipa, not totally american or totally english, but a balance of the two.

Dec 6, 2007 bottle from total wine & more tampa: warm golden color with medium head that dissipated quickly. caramel and floral smell. citrus hops very little malt on the taste. slightly earthy then a bitter finish. not your typical ipa, but good.

Dec 2, 2007 This beer pours a nice thick head with a strong hoppy aroma and some hints of carmel malt. The color is cloudy amber and orange. As you drink the beer is very hoppy and bitter. the palate duration is very long leaving the nice hoppy coating with carmel malt along the sides of your mouth.

Dec 2, 2007 Too flowery hop for me. But after getting that past my palate it turns into a solid IPA offering. Huge flower notes in the aroma and on the buds. Descent caramely malt notes balance it but its definitly a challenge for them to do.

Nov 29, 2007 Looks great in the glass. Nice thick white head, with heavy lacing. Aroma has some hop presence, definitely more malty than a west coast IPA. More hops in the aroma than the flavor, but it’s a very pleasant balance.

Nov 28, 2007 Nice hoppy aroma with a little fruit. Flavor is hops but not too strong and well balanced with moderately sweet malt. Smooth, medium body, very easy to drink.

Nov 24, 2007 Updated: Jan 12, 2008single bottle. dark gold, small head. Happy, active fruit aroma. Nicely hopped, but not overly so. One of the most well-balanced IPAs I’ve come across
