| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 2, 2009 Bottle Pours a cloudy orange gold with a good off white head. The head is lasting and creamy. Laces pretty well. Has a real good hoppy aroma. Mostly citrus, pine, and a touch of spices. Has a good carbonation. The flavor has milder hops but a great bitter backbone. Very clean and crisp. Has a medium body. A watery texturde which I find unusual for this style. Has a strong finish with a great aftertaste. More or less a plain Jane IPA which is everything it should be. Very well done.

Fresh flavors take the theme here: just cut wet grass and flowers and ripened pineapple. Medium bodied. Floral hoppy finish. Drinkability: This one will be remembered. It’s delightful.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Nov 10, 2009 Interesting ambivalence here. Most of the characteristics are pretty good except for the flavor where it gets taken down a good peg or two. Tastes like oxidized hops there. Poured with a giant foamy frothy textured head and a ton of lace. Aroma was american ipa. Flavor is same except as modified above. Body is good and ditto carbonation. Finish is ok. chicagodri (1063), Chicago, Illinois, USA
