12 oz. bottle into shaker. Nice honey amberish brown pour with a descent slightly off-white head. Aroma of grapefruit hops; sweet juicy and refreshing. Flavor throws me off a bit though - not what the aroma might suggest. It was sweet and a bit funky (musty) with mostly a strange and unbalanced malt hop presence. Not very bitter. Medium bodied on the palate with soft carbonation. Overall: pretty good, but might as well go for the 90, even though it costs a bit more.

Oct 12, 2008 Pours orange, white head.
Aroma is malty, caramel, light piney hops scent, giving a near cocoa impression. Some floral hops.
Taste, malty, sweet caramel , candi sugar and light chocolat. Light floral hops for a nice hoppy finish.

Oct 7, 2008 A great golden beer with a thin wispy white head. Aroma is much more faint than I was expecting and is mostly of pine and citrus. It has a pine hoppy flavor and a slight sweet malt ending. The beer has a very low and fine carbonatio . A nice moderately filling and hoped beer but prefer other hoped choices by Dogfish to this one.

Oct 6, 2008 Poured flat with no head. Faint hoppy and citrus aroma with flat flavoring... bad bottle for sure.

Oct 2, 2008 Bottle from Bottletrek in Eugene, OR. Overall this was a great brew, but I was expecting more from Dogfish. Tasted simiilar to most IPA’s and of course a step down from the 90 minute. If you want a really good IPA, go straight for the 90 don’t even bother with this one.

Sep 30, 2008 Clear golden with very white foamy head that disappears. Hoppy orange, grapefruit aroma. Full bodied orange and pine taste with a bitter orange aftertaste. Very easy drinking.
