Aug 14, 2008 Updated: Aug 22, 200812 oz bottle from a 6 pack from Cardinal Liquors (Frankfort, IL). Poured a fiery orangish amber hue hazed with a nice offwhite head that laces very well. Aromas are largely floral and caramel malt, striking a fine balance. Some sweeter citrus notes waft in as well. Initial is very good, very bitter hop presence balanced by a very good caramel bicuity malt profile. Finishes bitter and with some remembrances of the wonderful malt. Very well balanced, not your typical grapefruit bomb. I really liked this IPA. On one of my higher IPA shelves. Cheers!

Aug 13, 2008 I thought the aroma was very bland without much hops presence. Pour was nice...amber in color with a small frothy head. Tast was a nice blend of malt and pine hops. Actually quite refreshing.

Aug 13, 2008 Malty aroma.
Unpleasant inital malt flavour on front of palate with IPA bitterness. Cloying flavour. Disappointed. Maybe they send their bad brews to Australia. Will have to try again but will put at end of list.

Aug 7, 2008 A clear copper-amber beer with a thick white head that lasts and leaves lace. Aroma is spicy hops with some caramel malt notes. The flavor is hop-dominated, but atop a decent malt base. Finishes fairly bitter. Not standing out, not falling behind.
