Pours a bright hazy rich golden color with a lasting white head. Smell is yeasty, hoppy, floray, and dusty. Taste is more hoppy than expected, a bit dry and dusty, and very IPA like, with light citrusy hoppy flavor. Medium bodied. Good stuff, that I’d like to give another try. decaturstevo (2010), decatur, Tennessee, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 28, 2006 Pour a hazy golden glass that will foam if you make it. A slightly sweet fruity , maybe even bannana and yeast aroma. A nice fruity and lightly bitter taste and just barely a lightly over carbonated palate kept me from rating this beer even higher. I like it. AmEricanbrew (2005), Almost, Texas, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Feb 14, 2008 Huge foamy eruption before the cap was removed. Big rocky white head that sticks around, a classic Munich brauhaus pour. Nice herbal, grassy weed aroma . Light/medium body and very smooth. Dry cracker malt taste up front with an incredible sweet spicy mix of west coast and euro hops to finish. very easy drinking, love this one. 1307 mjg74 (2001), La Mesa, California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 19, 2007 Bottle(batch 2) from Whole Foods. Pours a hazy golden/orange color. Slightly sweet yeasty aroma with a fairly noticable hoopy smell. Some spices as well. The brew is very dry and hoppy up front. The pepper quality really maked it seem dry. Bitter citric finish. Some of the Belgian qualities are hanging around, but seem to be dominated by the spicy hop qualities. beerbill (1985), Laurel, New York, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 11, 2008 750 ml bottle. Pours a hazy dull gold with some floaties. Large brilliant white head that is continuously fed by a multitude of tiny carbonation bubbles. The head ends up looking more like whipped cream it is so dense, but leaves surprisingly little lace. Very pleasant aroma of citrus, sugar, yeast, and a bit of spice. The flavor is a bit sweet with sugar and citrus the most prevalent with some spice detected as well. Really nice crisp mouthfeel and the bitterness is well restrained and in good proportion. The alcohol is very well hidden with no hint of the 9% abv. Very enjoyable beer. travita (1970), Frisco, Texas, USA

Prickly mouthfeel. Taste of citrus. Spice coming in at the end. Quite subdued for an IPA. Warms at the end. Enjoyed two of these and felt a bit overwhelmed on a nice, warm day.
