Deep amber with one inch cream color head. Floral hop aroma, some pine. Taste is a blast of grapefruit rind, pine needles, resins. Some sweet malt but hard to find. Here is an IPA that is just too bitter for me. I give! Bottled the 4th week of February.

Oct 2, 2008 Bottle from a trade with STFun. Poured a copper color with a huge head. The smell of hops ever present. Tasted of both pine and citrus hops. A little weak on the palate and unfortunaley doesn’t stand out from the many IPA’s available.

Oct 1, 2008 Happy to see this in 12oz bottles, and even happier to be paying a surprisingly low amount for it. This is just a solid IPA in pretty much all ways. Not too hoppy, sort of a thinnish taste, great smell, this is easy to drink. Could possibly enter the possibility list of cheap high abv regulars for me.

Sep 29, 2008 Copper, golden pour, low head, some lacing. Floral and fruity hops, grape. First impression is sweet and a flat lack of carbonation. Bitter typical IPA, no bite, nice example of a better than average IPA

Sep 29, 2008 From bottle. Part of April Dayton Beertasting event.
Pours clear amber with robust white head. Aroma of pine and citrus hops. Very good beer considering the price point. Slightly short finish but would buy again.
