Poured a medium golden color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of pine, citrus, floral, and just all around nice and hoppy. Tastes of citrus, some caramel, and a little fruity. Tastes a little bit of a let down compared to that nice aroma. Body a little on the thin side. jcwattsrugger (5581), Florida and, New Jersey, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | May 16, 2009 Bottle… Clear amber ale with a mid-sized, frothy, white head. Good, wispy, flaky retention. The nose is composed of big-time pink grapefruit, pine, cat pee and tropical fruit. Medium-bodied with lively carbonation. The flavor is mostly of acrid, citrus bitterness. Finishes a touch tangy and a touch bitter. CaptainCougar (5532), Rockville, Maryland, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 29, 2009 Pours a transparent orange copper with a well-lacing froth of off-white head. Aroma of fresh resiny grassy grapefruity hops along with a touch of toasty caramel malt. Starts with good fullness for the style and light malty sweetness well balanced with lots of assertive citrusy bittering and flavor hops before a crisp finish. A very enjoyable and drinkable IPA.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 29, 2009 Pale golden beer. Fairly sweet nose with a light hoppy character. There is a touch of fresh piny resinousness. Lightly berryish fruit over a nice fresh lean pale malt base. Well-balanced, fresh, and pretty tasty. I like it.
