| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 2, 2008 Pours a cloudy orange-amber body. A small, foamy, off-white head leaves behind minimal spots of lacing. The aroma shows light caramel malts, orange hops, light grapefruit, and some cream. The flavor is similar, with orange citrus showing as the dominating hop component. Some cereal grains come through to dry things out a bit. Caramel provides a lightly sweet, almost neutral background. A sweet, syrupy, medium-full body is a bit overly cloying. Finishes short and fruity, with some residual hops showing. Decent brew, but nothing special. steview (902), Los Angeles, California, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 28, 2008 650 ml bottle from Bevmo. Pours a cloudy orange-gold color with a sudsy white head that soon dissipated to a thin film. Plenty of lacing involved. The aroma is big with grapefruit and pine. The flavor is hops forward with more citrus ( mostly grapefruit), sugar and a touch of biscuit. The mouthfeel is silky smooth on the palate. The finish is short with lingering biter walnuts. Overall: This is a much better than average IPA. Recommended. doubleo (1121), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 27, 2008 Pours a somewhat hazy yellow orange color with a thick, somewhat frothy and sticky head. Laces the glass a bit. I don’t get much smell from this brew, just a hint of grassy hops maybe. Pretty hoppy and bitter, not bad at all. A bit of grapefruit in there. Mouthfeel is kind of lacking. The brew is very tasty but the mouthfeel is too thin and somewhat unsatisfying. Good IPA at a good price.
