| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Nov 7, 2003 A deep red color, shows a bit of chill haze, not too much in the way of a head (but I think that it was just served this way). This beer is fruity and hoppy. It is a balanced IPA with a definite but not over the top American hop character. Citrusy hop flavor, with a bitter some what bitting finish. It is firm bodied and malty as well. jazz88 (2237), San Francisco, California, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 9, 2003 Tap. Hazy amber color with a tan head. Well hopped with the fresh crisp hops of a nice harvest. A nice bite in the flavor. mwsf (360), San Francisco, California, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Sep 28, 2002 Copper color. Hazy. Medium cascade hop aroma. Some malt in the nose. Sweet flavor. Definitely contains a fair amount of lighter crystal malt. Medium bitterness. On the lower end of the bitterness scale for a West Coast IPA but still quite nice. Nice medium hop flavor. Thick, full body. Well balanced. A good IPA without going over the top.
