| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 30, 2008 On tap at the brewpub. Nice, lightly pungent aroma in Cascade-type hops, gummy and fresh. Pours a copper-gold, with a rim in whitish. Flavor is really solid. A fresh blast of hop flavor in that lightly spice, spruce and orange over a well-bodied, but not too sweet malt back. A balanced, fresh delicate beer. A real solid drink, that’s bright and sprightly with nice character across the board. Very enjoyable. jcwattsrugger (5581), Florida and, New Jersey, USA

Aroma is nice northwest hops-grapefruit/lemon zest (cascade? and Amarillo). Taste is nice northwest hops-grapefruit/lemon zest-bitter (cascade? and Amarillo), some medium malt. Dry/bitter finish. shigadeyo (2263), Harrison, Ohio, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 21, 2009 Double Dry-Hopped Cask
7/18/2009: Tippecanoe Dry-Hopped Common comes out amber-colored with a frothy head from the cask. The aroma reminds me of Simcoe hops and it has a sweet orange flavor with a smoky malt finish. It has a soft calm body. Overall this is definitely an interesting beer with a good play between the underlying brew and the fragrant dry-hopping. I wish that I could have had an entire pint of this beer!
Cask sample(s) at the 14th Annual Indiana Microbrewers Festival in Indianapolis, Indiana. Rating #16 for this beer.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jun 28, 2004 The hoppy smell was accompanied by an extremely hoppy taste. The red body was very pleasing to the eye. Cornfield (4975), Oak Forest, Illinois, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 8, 2007 From the tap this poured a clear amber body with almost no head. The aroma is surprizingly hoppy, grapefruit and lemon zest with a touch of pine. Underneath it all is a quietly sweet pale malt that is more detectable in the flavor. The hoppy bitterness actually increases in the flavor, burying the malt, and lasting well into the finish. Tasty and refreshing. I could see drinking a whole bunch of these.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 1, 2009 12 oz. gift bottle from Dave T. at DLD from one of the many share tables. Poured into a festival glass an orange amber with an off white, bubbly foam head and clingy curtains of lacing. The aroma was a pleasant combo of grapefruit, orange rind, and a little sweetness, along with a touch of resin. The flavor was less impressive than the aroma but supplied some dryness, caramelly malt, more pine than the nose, and a distinct and consistent hop bitterness. Crisp to the tongue and a little less than medium bodied, but very sessionable. DWestrick (247), Ft Wayne, Indiana, USA
