Jul 5, 2009 This beer is not memorable at all. I wish I could write more about it but it left no impressionable flavors or aromas and I can’t recommend anyone drink it.

Jun 22, 2009 Updated: Jul 5, 2009Another lame offering from Fire Station 5. This one pours a light golden with a minor head that is gone before you notice it. Way too overly malty for an IPA, and has a very heavy astringency level. Bland and bad.

Jun 14, 2009 Bomber. Poured cloudy orange with Medium white head. Some lacing. Light aroma of citrus and hop. Flavour is sweet malt core with a hoppy kernel, but a metallic ting kept the flavour from being better. Hop finish with more metallic tinge

I’ve never heard of Fire Station 5, and now I know why. This beer is mislabeled. It is just another boring, forgettable "quasi-lager" dressed up as a "micro" IPA. If my beer had any hops in it, the hops is no longer detectable. The beer seems to have fermented into a Lager. It’s not an IPA. Very disappointing and pondering a drain pour with the rest of the sixer. Avoid this one at all costs.

May 18, 2009 Updated: May 19, 200922oz bottle. Pine, citrus, floral hop aroma. Clear golden amber with a fluffy off white head, highly carbonated. Mostly bitter flavor with a slightly sweet backbone. Slick soapy mouth feel with an abrupt finish. The hops are a little harsh in this one and not balanced to well. A good beer if the price is right.

May 12, 2009 $5.99 on sale at Fry’s....didn’t bother with a glass pour...crisp nondescript flavor. It’s definitely a "watered down" attempt at an IPA for the masses....Also, easy drinking for the budget minded...might try again...

Apr 21, 2009 Pours a slightly hazy light copper color with a decent sized off white head. Aroma is of citrusy, slightly piney hops. Taste is not so up front citrusy, but with a slight bitter citrus finish. Not bad but not great.

Apr 5, 2009 Very clear golden, short lasting fluffy white head, clean citrus hoppy aroma. I wanted to disagree with the two previous ratings and not be influenced by them, but I have to agree. Thin and watery. It has the basic character of an IPA but is lacking any real body. Finishes a bit soapy.
