| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jul 6, 2008 Updated: Jul 9, 2008In short: A malt-deficient aggressive bottle of perfumed floral hop juice. Ok at best.
How: Bottle 12oz, probably very fresh (consumed a week after receiving it) from RCL. Thanks a lot Raymond
The look: Clear golden body topped by a small but long-lasting white head leaving lots of lacings
In long: Nose is very floral (borderline perfumy) with some fruity nose. Taste has some woody malts with a not-so-great plywood flavour. A bit oily. Lots of floral hops with a short but sharp and intense bitterness. Juicy floral petals kind of resume the hop profile to me. I had a feeling of a lingering after-shave flavour!?! Alcohol is apparent and the beer is only 7.5%, I would have guessed even higher. Overall this is plywood, alcohol, biting bitterness. That beer desperately needs a bigger malt backbone. That Loose Cannon misses the target, makes sense. MaltDawg (778), Richmond, Virginia, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 6, 2008 12 oz bottle. Clear light golden. Nose of pale malts and earthy slighty floral hops. Flavor has earthy grassy hops with moderate caramel malt sweetness to back up. Medium body with fairly dry finish with touch of bitterness lingering. Bigmmartin (367), Dayton, Ohio, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jul 6, 2008 Bottle from Tank’s Bar & Grill in Dayton. I was quite impressed with this beer, since I’ve never had anything from this brewery yet. It’s stronger and more intense than what I anticipated. Strong flowery hop aroma accompanies a golden orange color with a nice white head. The tastes is more on the citrus side with prominent bitterness. Beerman6686 (1271), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | 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. masonjer (563), Holt, Michigan, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | 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. emerica56 (579), Bristol, Rhode Island, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | 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. yngwie (4910), Kristiansand, Norway
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | 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) gunnfryd (3568), Kristiansand, Norway
