a great session beer. Perfect IPA identical to the 90 min but much easier to
drink. Great for the summer.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 29, 2009 Bottle courtesy of keepersj12. Poured a pale bronze colour with a smallish head. Fruit and hop packed aroma with nice citrus and pine notes. Flavour was simple clean and fresh. Plenty of spicy hop and citrus with some balancing malt leading to a lip smacking bitter finish. Could happily drink this all night. My 800th rate..... Cheers ! JaBier (1284), Capital City, Ohio, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 29, 2009 On tap at Winking Lizard Crosswoods location. Clear copper pour with a thin off-white head. Nice aroma of orange, grapefruit, pine and a bit of sweet malt. Orangy and spicy hops with a bit of malt before a bitter grapefruit finish. Not quite as good as 90 Minute, but still very good. ttutony (105), Texas, USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 26, 2009 Tap @ cheeseburger island style. Clear body, deep golden color, foamy white head, completely coats the glass, good retention. Floral aroma with some roasted honey aroma-pretty unique. Lint to medium body win nice carbonation, foamy, dry. Flavor is lightly sugary, juniper, roastiness, honey, pine, flowers. Surprisingly complex for a light IPA. Crisp, refreshing, a sipping beer.

Aroma, soft mellow sweetness with big hoppy citrus, pine and floral. Taste soft at first then it bringson the hops, lots of citrus and floral bite leaves a nice dry finish. The hops tingle the tongue. I love this beer. One of my daily drinkers. andersand (392), Malmö, Sweden

I didn’t really like the hop character at first, but I like it better and better. I think it’s the hop varieties, not the continuous addition that i’m not fond of. And I think I like it better from the bottle than the tap.
