Jul 4, 2008 I think this one is a bit overrated. Flavor and aroma are very bitter and not balanced at all, but not in the good "hop bomb" way.

Jul 3, 2008 Poured an orange color. Aroma is nice, slight citrus. Taste is orange, pine, nice complementing malt component with a solid bitter finish. Good straight forward IPA offering.

Jun 29, 2008 Pours a nice thick white head with a orange amber color. There is also some nice streaks that are left along the sides of the glass. The nose has some pine and bitter hops with hints of orange peel. Initially the flavor is spicy and has a lot of bitter hops. As you drink it you can really taste the orange and pine on your palate long after the sip. Overall it is a nice beer considering it was drank on a hot day and the head retention was not that good since the beer was warming rather quickly.

Jun 23, 2008 Bottle. A clear, golden beer with an off-white head. Orange and pine in the aroma, as well as a good maltyness. Balanced flavor with malts and hops. Citrus, pine, resin and a good bitterness. Full-bodied. Lasting, rather bitter finish with pine and citrus. A quite nice one, easy to drink and not pushing the limits. (080412)

Jun 22, 2008 [Bottle] shared by JoeBrew. Pours a clear gold with a smallish white head. Aroma is initially pine, as well as lots of citric hops, lemon, and grapefruit. Mouthfeel is thinnish, with pine, and a little woody. Lots of malt to back up the hops. Not as bitter as I would have thought.

Jun 21, 2008 bottle. Nice deep amber color, decent head that sticks around throughout. Aromas of chalky lemons and sweet toffee. Sharp dry bitterness, full citrus flavor and some creamy malt notes.

does not count  Jun 21, 2008 The ultimate floral IPA. Balanced with spice and citrus notes. Clean and complex. Inviting pour with an amber hue and fluffy head. I first picked it up because my son loved the bottle--so glad he did! An interesting beer to contrast against Dogfish Head 90.
