| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 16, 2009 Nose is mostly malty. Hints floral and citrus hops. Mostly caramel, and pale malts. Once again lightly tart. Pours golden with a nice head and lace. Light tart with moderate notes of citrus and floral hops. Caramel malts some sweetness and the underlying tartness again. Decent carbonation and rather drinkable. Interesting. can8ianben (907), Pasadena, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jun 20, 2009 Upfront pine tree aroma with a deep bitter finish. British style so you aren’t smacked in the face with the hops like an American IPA. High alcohol (8%?) is hidden extremely well. hopdog (5607), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 29, 2009 1 liter flip top ’Growler’ acquired in trade with Hophead22 (thanks!). Poured a medium amber color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of floral hops, grains, citrus, and there’s something there I just couldn’t put my finger on. LIttle spicey too. Tastes of citrus, some caramel, and the same floralness. badlizard (2370), Berkeley, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 9, 2009 The best offering at the brewery. Nice golden color with a big fluffy white head. Hops evident on the nose with a big grapefruit and caramel backbone and a nice crisp finish. Hophead22 (1105), Redlands, by way of Wisconsin,, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 6, 2009 Updated: Apr 23, 2009First taster at the brewery, had to wait for them to add a tap to the tower before I could try it even. Amber/gold pour with a very nice white head. Hoppy aroma with a little something that just wasn’t right. Very nice hop flavor though, lingered on the tongue for awhile, pretty decent, the best of their offerings.
