Bottle. Nice citrusy aroma. Bright golden body, creamy white head. Semi-sweet malt and grapefruit flavor. Refreshing bitter finish. Well done.

12oz bottle. Pours a hazy orange yellow color, 2 finger head with nice retention very nice lacing throughout. Aroma has floral notes with hints of citrus. Taste has a nice sweetness up front with a touch of citus, but finishes with a good amount of bitter hoppiness. This is a medium bodied brew with good carbonation.

Typically not a fan of IPAs but this was rather good, good malty flavor to compliment the full hop flavor.

Brassy color with a medium sized head. Light lacing. Aroma with grain and floral notes. Taste is somewhat less hoppy than average for an American IPA with a fairly complex maltiness. Finish is bitter and floral.

On tap at the Pirate House in Savannah, GA, on 10/24/08. Amber in color. Pine hop aroma. Some bitterness, but not excessive. Grassy ghops and grapefruit. Nothing to shout about.

Brassy golden clear with a thick dense white head that generates thick lace. Sweet malty spicy floral and fruit hop profile. Very well balanced. Long bitter finish.
