Aug 13, 2007 Citrus flavors are pronounced but not overpowering, adding a nice, refreshing flavor to the hops. Very smooth and crisp, it seems ideal for hot weather. Not anywhere near the best IPA I’ve ever had, but not a bad attempt at the style. Pleasant head, minimal lacing.

Aug 13, 2007 Bottle courtesy of HogTownHarry. Pours a clear bubbly orange with an average size lasting white head. Decent hoppy aroma with some sweetness and light breadiness. Hoppy, fruity taste with a dry bitter finish -- quite easy to drink. Alcohol’s completely hidden. Medium bodied. A simple yet pleasant IPA, I’d buy it regularly if it were available locally.

Aug 11, 2007 Lighter golden color with a medium, but persistent soapy-white head. Aroma has a crisp lemony-grapefruit citrus essence with some gentle grass, flowers, and a slight hint of malt. Flavor is lighter than some IPAs, but crisp, hoppy, and smooth – light citrus flavors flowing into a sea of grass and flower. As good a “summer” IPA as you can find. Hops linger, but don’t overpower. Not the greatest around, just one you wouldn’t mind sipping while manning the grill.

Aug 8, 2007 A good example of an IPA but very similar to the Burning River. The only difference betwen the two is the grapefruit/citrus flavor is much more pronounced with this offering.

Aug 8, 2007 12oz. Bottle: Medium-sweet aroma. Smells of hops, pineapple, pine, citrus, and tropical fruit. Poured golden with a hint of amber in color with a medium-sized off-white head that lasted throughout. No lacing. Clear. Ever so slightly sparkling. Flavor is lightly to medium bitter. Tastes of hops, pine, grass, resin, and grapefruit. Medium body. Slick texture. Average carbonation. Resiny bitter finish is short-lived. Overall, a good IPA, but not standout.

Aug 8, 2007 Abundantly hopped with milder hops which means greater quantity more spread out and less acute. The effect is an IPA that I can’t for the life of me distinguish from the brewery’s own Burning River, which I probably have overrated.

Aug 1, 2007 Gold in color with medium white head and nice lacing. Typical IPA all around- hoppy with strong grapefruit flavors. A bit more bitter and dry than some other IPAs I’ve tried.

Aug 1, 2007 Bottle sampled. Pours deep golden with a good size off-white head. Aroma of citrus, fruit, and piney hops. The flavor is sweet, fruit, caramel, citrus, and a piney bitterness in the finish. Good brew.
