Dec 16, 2005 (12oz bottle, thanks Barry) Small beige head topping a lightly hazed amber body. Aroma is moderately sweet, caramel, floral, light pine, orange. Taste is medium sweet, pine, caramel, some grapefruit, lemon. Light-medium body with light resin. No one will mistake this for a West Coast IPA -- while I agree with others that this seems more an APA than an IPA, the bitterness does pick up a notch once the beer warms.

Jul 19, 2002 Bright amber color with a light cream head. Orange peel and floral aromas. Light malt sweetness with a sharp bitter hops finish. A little lighter in body than I prefer for this style.

Sep 1, 2004 Copper color, creamy head, nice lacing. The aroma is very toasty with balanced hops; like bread! The flavor is medicinal & tangy, light bitterness & buttery malts. Finishes balanced, kinda boring actually.

Nov 10, 2005 12 oz bottle purchased at the Woodmans in Beloit WI. Served between cellar & fridge temps from a 12 oz Michelob glass, Michelob baby! Pours a light clear copper, moderate fizzy off-white head, quick-dissipating, with a touch of fine lacing...mildy piney hoppy nose, touch of lemon, some wood, and some dry biscuity malt...body moderately sweet, quite malty, full, with hops moderate to strong only at midpalate one...barely present at the front, and not really all that bitter at the finish, though a nice dusty dry acidity does settle in late...very quaffable, nothing spectacular and closer I think to an APA, it’s a solid middle-of-the-road effort.

Oct 25, 2004 Bottle: Surprisingly deep amber ghue with lasting frothy head and very good lace. The aroma has notes of piney and floral hops, grapefruit and apple, caramel and pale malts, and earthy yeast esters. The taste starts malty and a been bready. The hops are there but subdued more than I would have wanted. The finihs is chalky and dry, with just a bit of bitterness. The taste and feel is a let down. Akin to the British style than the American.

Dec 14, 2008 On draught at the Tied House in Verona, Wisconsin. Pours a clear amber brew with a fast dissolving off-white head that dissipates nearly clean. Aroma of caramel malt, some citrus zest, a touch of pine and dry earth herbs. Taste is medium bodied, some carbonation with flavors of mild caramel malt, a touch of citrus zest and lemon. Finish is semi-dry with a hint of citrus and some light bread malt. This beer is more close to an American Pale Ale than an IPA.
