Jun 8, 2008 Bottle sampled with Stegosaurus. Amber pour with a mild aroma of hop and citrus. Mild bitterness and citrus and hop flavor. It was good but not mind blowing.

Mar 21, 2008 341ml bottle, with a big thanks to HogTownHarry for this excellent bonus! Pours a clear and darker amber with a frothy two finger off-white head that lingers; great lacing. Aroma is some pine/resin, citrus and floral, with some caramel in there for good measure. Flavor is a sharp hops bite that is quickly tempered with a caramel malt backbone combined with some grass/pine earthiness. Only the slightest hoppiness lingers briefly on the palate. An interesting IPA and glad to have the chance to try; thanks again Harry!

Jun 28, 2008 Aroma: Citrusy & resinous hops supported by sweet caramel malt. Appearance: Hazy amber with a 1/4 inch of tan foam. Flavor: Sweet and spicy with ample bitterness up front. More spicy/herbal/pine hop flavors in the middle with a burnt sugar background. Dry, lightly puckering finish. Medium body and carbonation. Overall I really enjoyed this from start to the bottom of the glass...the flavor was interesting and quite refreshing.

Jul 15, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Pours a deep dark amber color with a medium sized lasting beige head. The aroma is a fairly heavy dose of sweet fruity hops with a bit of malt to back everything up. The flavor opens with nice citrus hops with an emphasis on orange and grapefruit. There is caramel malt to back up and somewhat balance the hops. The fruitiness disappears by the end giving way to a more general bitterness. Medium bodied and very drinkable.

Feb 8, 2008 Bière brune et ambrée, passablement voilée. Elle laisse un léger col crème qui disparaît rapidement. Arôme de houblons floraux et fruités aux notes d’herbe fraîche, d’agrumes et de mangue. Goût plutôt amer, très houblonné, avec du caramel, des figues, des céréales torréfiées. Arrière-goût d’agrumes, de mangues et d’alcool cendrée. L’amertume s’accroche longtemps. La bouche est bien ronde, pétillante sinon piquante.
C’est une bonne bière, qui aurait été excellente avec une amertume mieux dosée.

Apr 5, 2008 341 ml bottle. Shared with my neighbour Kjetil. Hazy copper color, nice off-white head. Aroma is hoppy, but not a bomb. Flavor is hoppy, with sweet malt and a salty bitterness. Nice, but not a hopbomb.

Aug 23, 2009 341 ml bottle from Premier in Halifax. Pours a murky brown/gold with moderate, slightly off-white head. Assertive hoppy nose (citrus and pine) with nice caramel malt backing for sweetness. Malt profile readily apparent in flavour leading to fruity hops. Medium+ body, fine carbonation, bitter finish, sticky mouthfeel. Quite nice.
