Jun 20, 2004 Bottle from Kevin42. No head, Amber/rust color. Nose smells like raw bread dough and hops. Taste is very full and nice. Just a little bitter, a little citrusy. Finish is sharp and crisp. This is a very full, crisp, and hoppy beer. Overall this is a great IPA.

Jun 17, 2004 duvel tulip glass: mmm, good brew albeit boring. it smells like an orange wheat brew. it tastes thin and seems to lean towards some sort of mediocre wheat brew. i don’t have much to say about this since it didn’t grab me. but hey, it's good and i like it.

Jun 12, 2004 Deep brownish red, thick head that dissipated rather slowly, nose of clove and orange. Very hoppy, like I like my IPAs, and strong. Refreshing.

Jun 7, 2004 pours a rust brown with a white head. hoppy earthy bread aroma. smooth slight caramel taste. malt and hops are balance well at first taste, finishes with more of a malty, buttery taste. i cant put my finger on it, but there is something about this i like.

May 24, 2004 12 oz bottle: large, lumpy white icing atop a cloudy orange body, littered with dark flecks of yeast. Chalk-dusty, pine needle aroma with a good amount of pineapple. Sour, cherry feet flavours with a good dose of hops. Banana peel after taste along with a bit of sweet caramel. Mixed-up sour & strange flavours overall, not really one of my favourites.

May 21, 2004 Updated: Jun 30, 2004I’m not sure if the sixpack I bought of this might have been a little old or what, but this brew just didn’t click with me. The aroma was kind of sour. The beer poured a medium amber with a quickly diminishing head. First taste confirmed the aroma--sour. I certainly could detect the hops but they were overpowered by the sourness. It tasted for all the world like somebody had tossed a bunch of hops into a glass of unsweetened lemonade to me. I’ll try it again sometime and see if maybe I just got a bad batch.
At least it had a nice mouthfeel.

May 19, 2004 Beware of gushing bottles! Golden colored with many tiny suspended particles. Grand cream-colored head. Nice ring of lacing. Oranges, apricots and caramel in the aroma, which is not very strong. Decent hoppiness to the flavor initially, turning citric (oranges) and slightly malty. Rather big malt finish (white cake, cookies) for an IPA. Full mouthfeel, nice carbonation balance. Hey, I liked this. Underrated? I’d say so.

May 1, 2004 Amber color with a thin frothy head and a nice sheet of lace. Aroma is citrus and malt. Flavour is oranges and caramel with some salt and nuttyness in the aftertaste (well described as "circus peanuts" by JPDIPSO). Not great but interesting.
