| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Apr 13, 2008 From bottle... poured cloudy orange with some sediment. Aroma was a light citrus. Flavor was very underwhelming... watery and weak. Smooth but no bite. Disappointing for an IPA, but still decent enough to enjoy. ChainGangGuy (2608), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 13, 2008 Appearance: Pours a clear, coppery body with a full, white head. Splotchy lacing on the way down.
Smell: Aroma of lightly toasted malt and fresh-cut flowers with a far-off note of sliced grapefruit.
Taste: Pale malts, a hint of toast, a touch of sweetness. Medium ’pop’ of cleansing hop bitterness. Flavors of flowers and citric grapefruit. Crisp finish with a light, lingering bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: A standard, basic India Pale Ale, but quite easily drinkable. changeup45 (800), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 11, 2008 Poured a nice golden color topped with a pretty thick white head. Nice sweet hoppy flavor with a soft bitter taste. Not bitter and not fruity, just mild hints of both. Very well balanced! Lots of lace left on the glass as well, which I like. Nice and refreshing. I’d certainly get this one again but it could use a little more of a hop kick. biggmike (480), Hattiesburg, Mississippi, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 10, 2008 Poured an attractive golden/amber color with a nice pillowy white head that lasted until the very last sip. Nice lacing also. Aroma was a mix of malt and light floral hops. Taste was a very nice balance of malt and hops. This is not the hop bomb that is characteristic of many American IPAs. This is nicely balanced and sessionable.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 7, 2008 This used to be one of the few IPAs readily available around here. Still solid... held up better than I expected. Grassy, a little resiny, and some light citrus notes. A lighter, thinner IPA, but definitely drinkable. RunDWP (203), San Jose, California, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 1, 2008 On tap. Burnt orange color, small head. Reasonably good IPA, some hops flavor, slight grapefruity notes. Goes down pretty smooth. I like the fact that they don’t try to hit you over the head with a lot of hops. Easy drinking beer for an IPA. Goes well with food. I can understand why its popular. wyzzywyz22 (799), Wirral, Merseyside, England
| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Mar 30, 2008 Bottle, courtesy of a Slothez import. Pale golden colour with a thick white head. Slightly metallic aroma. Hints of malt and hops but not really much of anything going on here. Very disappointing and uninspiring brew.
