May 14, 2002 Re-Rate 05/14/02: Pours a nice clear dark amber color, generous head and lace. Nose is malt, some floral tones also noticed, front is sweet, the top light, the finish is acidic and dry, nicely hopped, quite a decent IPA, and wish it was more readily available here.

May 2, 2002 IPA? yes. Bitter? yes. Do I like bitter IPA’s? No. Luckily, this IPA changed the way I think about this type of beer. Great orange color.

Apr 26, 2002 This was the first selection I tried from my Beer of the Month Club shipment for April. This brew pours a clear orange. The generous rocky off-white head is fully lasting with very good lacing. The bold nose is mostly grapefruit and cheese with some notes of perfume, resin, and pine. The heavy flavor is a blunt balance between citrus acidity and February bitterness that finishes long and intense. The flavor has alot of ass, but is not very complex. The medium creamy body has lively carbonation and a very clean finish. This brew will satisfy the hopheads with plenty of bite to go along with the growl.

Jan 30, 2002 Copper-orange colour. Nice butter and citrus nose and roasted and lemony taste. Fairly normal and I still don´t get why all american IPA´s must be made with Cascade hops. Ruins it a bit for me. But that´s me. A good beer though

Jan 15, 2002 Amber coloured. Floral, hopy nose. Citrusy, big time hoppy flavour. Really bitter. A typical American style IPA, and a good one at that.

Nov 5, 2001 Starts with some massive hops and finishes with an enjoyable, full, and almost chewy maltiness. Hard to find an IPA with this good of a malt balance when you’ve got the massive hops upfront. A good one.

Jun 16, 2000 Fruity aroma with a slight yeasty scent (maybe from the bottle conditioning). Crisp and bold mouthfeel; sharp and tingly. Hoppy, well-rounded flavor.
