| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 29, 2008 Amber color beer with an attractive, fluffy off white head. Nose of grain and grassy hops. This IPA hassome orange juice and tangerine citrus, but the finish has the same cut grass bitterness that I get out of GLBC Burning River that I find a little harsh. Light caramel sweetness with some doughy bread under it. Easy drinking IPA that would stand up well to bar food. Thanks to Blackforestcol for the bottle. jcr (1177), Jasper, Indiana, USA

This IPA delivers on its promises of an intense floral aroma and a long, hoppy finish. Medium amber pour with a small, slightly off-white head. Huge floral aroma with notes of toasted grain. The flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter and lightly acidic. Medium body and watery texture. Long, thick, sticky floral finish.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 25, 2008 Pours a butterscotch/orange color with a thick, creamy, lasting head. Strong bitter nose of floral and grass clippings with a hint of sweetness. A very dirty hop flavor. Doesn’t have the strong citrus or floral that so many American IPAs have. There are some nice honey undertones that create some balance. It is a little bit tannic and has a really dry finish. argo0 (6962), Washington DC, USA

Aroma is medium sweet, pine/grapefruit, cat urine, light straw. Taste is medium sweet, herbal/grapefruit, light caramel. Light-medium body. swoopjones (1917), Buffalo, New York, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 20, 2008 Bottle via trade. beautiful looking IPA. Orange golden color, piney citrusy hop aroma. Flavor does not equal the visual beauty. Something seems a little off. Decent piney.hop flavor. I see some call it earthy, maybe but overall an ok IPA kmweaver (2474), Sebastopol, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 19, 2008 12oz bottle, courtesy of artusory. Thanks, Ryan! Pours a deep, orange-golden color; light tan head with decent retention and lacing. Solid floral and earthy hops in the aroma; earthy malts and candy sugar underneath. Medium mouthfeel: slightly dusty and earthy malt character, with a decent amount of floral / earthy hoppiness; the dustiness detracts, but otherwise a solid, catty IPA. Medium, bittering citrus and earthy hops in the finish; some astringency. Aurelius (2652), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 15, 2008 Fruity, somewhat vanilla aroma. Hoppy, but not too heavy-handed. Caramel, hops, some milkiness. Buffered, slightly chalky mouth but finishes with some acidity. Medium dark, ruddy brown.
