Nice hoppy aroma some pine and citrus. pours amber with nice head. nicely balanced and not as dry as some, but not confused and cloyingly sweet. The maltiness in this one doesn’t deminish the hops. I still think I prefer the ultra dry and hoppy double ipa, but this was a good take on a maltly one, a more east coast styled version. medium bodied. grapefrult and pine in the flavor as well as some biscuit. nice ipa.

Aug 18, 2008 Draft at the brewpub. Poured a copper in color with a small white head. Aroma of grapefruity hops, with a malty and bready base. Tastes of grapefruit, citrus, bread, earthy and moderately sweet with a nice dry finish. Nice.

Jul 14, 2008 Updated: Jul 20, 2008Cask draft at brewpub. Hazy, orange-copper with a small but lasting head. Aroma is grapefruit, resin and slight molasses. Flavor is earthy resin, some citrus and molasses. Medium body is smoothish, with just enough hop roughness and drying. Pretty nicely balanced.
