| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 25, 2009 Old rating, sample from bottle 2008.
Clear deep golden colour. Rich hop-induced foam. Sweet malty aroma with rich floral notes from hops. Smooth mouthfeel with mild maltiness, whereas the hop flavour is grassy with traces of citrus. Pretty bitter for the APA style. ghawener (985), San Salvador, El Salvador

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 21, 2009 A golden brown beer with a nice head. The aroma is grassy hops(though most of it has faded at this point) with some slight citrus. The taste is very smooth & great sessionable drinking. Nice lacing. My only complaint is not with the beer (but the distributor) it took 2.5 months for this fresh hop beer to make it on the shelf in my town. So a beer meant to be drank as soon as possible in a 3 month period was at the end of its fresh hop prime when it was put on the shelf. This is a great beer when drank fresh, but still good when not fresh just not what it is supposed to be. rcasta (492), El Salvador

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 17, 2009 Draft at International Beer Garden (Lutz, FL). Pours an orangish gold color with a huge white head. Looks delicious with tons of lacing running down the inside of the glass. Heavily hopped aroma and flavor. Very nice bitterness in the finish with a slightly dry aftertaste. Quite good. beerandIT (190), Richmond, Virginia, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 15, 2009 This beer is just awesome!. Gorgeous on the initial pour with over an inch of head. The color if a nice golden amber. Very fresh from the bottle and bottled on just the 23rd of September. Medium bodied but really almost drinks like a light bodied beer. I smell a very floral/citrus combo on the nose along with subtle hints of straw. Slight nuances of malts hidden in there. Great lacing of the glass there as well. Awesome head retention. On the palate i am getting fresh citrus notes, floral hints, resiny, sticky mouth feel there as well. A bitter but very balanced hop bite through to the finish. Fantastic!
