Feb 14, 2006 I prefer a bit more of a bite in my IPA’s and this beer seems to me to be a bit "mass produced". I feel a good IPA should have some cloudiness and this is so very clear. But, as I always say, "beer is like women; it’s all good, just some’s better than others".

Jan 21, 2006 On my first trip the the Fred Meyer upon moving out here I picked up a 6 pack and wasn’t disappointed.
Light amber in color with low carbonation and a quickly disappearing head. Very floral, somewhat fruity aroma. Well hopped, but not as bitter as I like in an IPA. Pretty well balanced, but a little too sweet a the end. Smooth mouthfeel. Pretty solid beer.

Jan 12, 2006 This is the only beer I drink. I use to drink Sam Adams but after I tasted This IPA I cannot tolerate anything else. I have tried all the FireStation 5 beers but this is the only one I like. I have gratiously let others sample my stash but I don’t think they get it. The only problem is getting my trash bin up in my truck every other week for the trash guy. Wish they made it in Kegs or cans!

Jul 17, 2005 Bottle in Anchorage AK. True amber with a thin head. No carbonation at all. Clean mashy-sweet aroma. Musky flavors, like sour grapes or spiked veggies. Very off-kilter.

Jul 6, 2005 Updated: Jul 7, 2005Clear amber, fizzy head, decent cascades aroma. Could use more body and bitterness, wimpy for an IPA but the flavours are still pleasing.

Jun 2, 2005 The "Fred Meyer" version of a microbrew. Not much here to work with, and I don’t really understand the firsetation reference. Bland
