slang (392), Columbia, South Carolina, USA Jul 30, 2007 bottled. A right on IPA, Looks a little watery & the hop nose is lighter than most, but has a strong, sweet, & full mouthfeel. Grapefruit, lite caramel, & yeast, Its good. yesyouam (587), Fairport, New York, USA Jul 28, 2007 Loose Cannon is a very clear golden ale with barely any head-- just a white ring. The aroma is loud and of pine needles, grapefruit, and perfume. It is medium bodied with soft carbonation. It’s almost flat. It’s a bit astringent at the end. It’s a long taste! It’s almost sweet for a brief moment, almost fruity (like apple), and then a long echo of pine needles and wood, juniper and fenugreek. It’s quite bitter! Good stuff! emobassfoo (178), Webster, New York, USA Jul 27, 2007 Rated while drinking: Pours a dark golden hue with a sturdy fluffy white head. Pretty nice lacing too. Smells like citrusy citrus. Floral and grass notes come through as well. Like it. Very fresh tasting. Lotsa hops in here, but not too overwhelming. Quite tasty. Palate shines. A little resiny, dry, but smooth on the way down. Very drinkable! Really wish this came in 6 packs. malrubius (969), Valley Stream, New York, USA Jul 24, 2007 12 oz bottle in pint glass. Pours nice clear copper color with lasting off-white head. Strong fresh citrus hop aroma. Nice malt character balanced with fresh hop flavor. Medium body. All-around excellent beer. The best of the Heavy Seas line that I’ve tried. Beerlando (2284), Orlando, Florida, USA Jul 21, 2007 Rated 7/21/07. Pours a cloudy golden color with a small white head. Nice carbonation. Beautiful rings of lacing left behind after every sip. Whoa.....the aroma is very hoppy. I picked up floral, grassy, herbal, piney hops on the nose. The malt background is apparent on a deep inhale, but you have to cut through some serious hops to find it. The flavor is very nice. Again, piney, citrusy, and herbal hops dominate, but there is a decent enough level of caramel malt to mellow it out and make it palatable. Similar to Boulder’s Hazed and Infused in terms of hop intensity, but this one has a much better malt-hop balance. Heavy beer, but very drinkable if you’re into big hops, which I am. Nice, intense IPA. fattibobatti (246), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Jul 21, 2007 stands out b/c of the intense hopping. i prefer this over some other ipas because i prefer a dominant hop taste and very little malt. this ipa does just that and turns out to be one of my favorites. patrick767 (2016), fort wayne, Indiana, USA Jul 19, 2007 bottle - Pours clear copper with a thin head. There’s lots of citrus hops in the aroma and it’s very nice. There’s also a good, intense citrus hops dominated flavor backed by some pretty well balanced caramel malt. This medium bodied beer ends in a long, pleasantly bitter finish. Very fine IPA. bdigital (585), Ft Wayne, Indiana, USA Jul 19, 2007 Beautiful golden color with small white head and fair lacing. Aroma of bananas, pineapple and huge amounts of piney and floral hops. The taste almost mirrors the aroma on this. This is the second time I’ve had this and it’s better now than it was then. Thanks to cmr1517 for leaving the bottles at my house. Sorry man I couldn’t resist.
