| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jun 12, 2006 A nice IPA, very great for the price. The pour was typical for the style, standard foamy head with some foamy lacing. The aroma was all grapefruits, man I love that in my IPAs. The flavor was grapefruit and citrus up front with a piney hop finish. The hops in this one were prominent, but not overdone, and supported by a sweet malty base. Alcohol hardly noticeable and the mouthfeel was thin for the style. Very drinkable and enjoyable. riversideAK (2792), Shoreline, Washington, USA

Pours a nice gold orange color with great lacing and a bubbly head. Aroma of strong grapefruit and citrus. Flavor is similar with strong hoppy notes. More bitter than malty. Nice grapefruit flavor with minimal amounts of toasty malt. Lingering dryness on the palate. Very good. HopBackDoc (395), Hatboro, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 22, 2007 On draft at the Newtown Brewfest. Copper color with medium head. Aroma was mostly hops. Flavor was citrus hops, caramel malt sweetness, and a nice light bitter hop finish. The body was sticky and syrupy leaving you wanting more. Delicious. JB175 (1664), Bucks County, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 22, 2006 Golden-amber color with rich head. Strong, hoppy aroma. Taste is smooth, hoppy, with a decent malt backing. Not the best balance, but plenty of strong hoppy flavors to make it all better. Finishes nicely, but non hopheads might think twice.......... shigadeyo (2263), Harrison, Ohio, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 11, 2006 Clear golden light amber (copper) color. Generous carbonation with a nice foamy yellow head that slowy bubbles away and leaves a nice veil/crown. Aroma is sweet grapefruit/orange, crisp, clean hops with some maltiness in the background. Flavor is just like the aroma, only a bit sweeter. Great mouthfeel - just syrupy enought without being too much. Flavor is also extremely well balanced between the malt and hops. Alcohol is there, but quite hidden. To top it off, this one has a yummy slightly dry and bitter finish. Just when you think it has completely slipped away, a bit of sweetness comes back inviting you to take another drink. It might not be a full double IPA, but it is a fine IPA either way. Bottle after bottle, it’s just not possible to stop drinking a beer this good for the low, low price!
