| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Apr 30, 2009 A majestic thanks goes out to cquiroga for this large bottle from western America, californ-eye-aye. I’ll add this to my ‘collection’, heheheh!! I popped the lid on this and it was a burst of energy from the start. Foaming bubbling pour, yet controllable….yum! Citrus olfactory impressions abound. An amber ale? No way; this is some kinda IPA. Lovely presentation in the glass, almost looks like a dark shade of light brown hefe. Biting oily hoppy in yer face, mr hoppy. Makes me think of hoppy gilmor’s little hoppy place, wew. Finish is sharp roof of mouth linger. Nice chunk of foam remains in the glass after completion of the session. Very pleasant experience.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 21, 2009 22oz bottle. Pours a lightly hazed copper brown with a fizzy off white head. Nice nose of pine and resin. Flavor had a pretty good balance between hop bitterness and roasted malt. CaptainCougar (5527), Rockville, Maryland, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 29, 2009 Bottle thanks to bhensonb: Pours a transparent copper amber with a thin, small-bubbled stringy-lacing white head. Aroma of sweet caramel malt with a good dose of fresh resiny piny hops. Body starts with pleasant fullness and sweet caramel flavor with good grapefruity bittering and flavor hop balance before a crisp bittersweet finish. A pretty good, full-bodied IPA.

| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Mar 21, 2009 Amber orange hue with great clarity. Nose is resin and grassy hops with crystal and caramel bready malts. Flavor is more caramel than the nose indicates with a subtle hop accent, low-moderate bitterness with light fruit esters, finishes with light malt dryness. Thinned out watery texture, prickly carbonation. A relatively flat amber ale that is lacking in malt flavors. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 10, 2009 Pours deep coppery caramelly colored toward brown with 1-finger fluffy off-white head. Nose is juicy hops, wheaties-like malt, some toffee...nice hop nose in this. Tastes hoppy, witha decent caramel malt backbone. This one reminds me a little of a slightly less assertive Sly Fox Rt. 113 IPA. The palate is rich, creamy, with decent complexity. The taste falls off a bit late.
