Oct 25, 2009 Amber with a nice hoppy aroma. Flavour has some decent malty flavours with a medium bitterness and hopping. The first bit didn’t seem that hoppy but it built up after a while.

Oct 25, 2009 Resisted trying for a while because lacked endorsement and I agree with the underwhelming review, pumpkin color with creamy light tan head, decent lacing, smells of malt and hops, thin and weak texture, a little bitterness with faint citrus, not to complex. Overall to light and thin with lack of flavor I like in an IPA.

Oct 24, 2009 Very good IPA and nice balance of hops. Pours a nice orange color. The aroma is standard IPA like: Pine. Taste is very nice with a slight bitterness.

Oct 24, 2009 Nose is slightly dank fruit with some peanut shell and orange rind. Really nice nose for a "standard" IPA. Taste is more of the nose, with the dank, resinous hops in the foreground and a nice transition to a slight tartness and a clean finish. Just enough bitter caramel sweet malt to wrap around. Solid IPA.

Oct 21, 2009 Had on tap at the Fort Worth Gingerman. Pretty orange pour. Very fruity hop aroma. Taste has a lot of hops with a hint of clove and rotten fruit. Mouthfeel is sticky and unpleasant.

Oct 21, 2009 Clear orange red. Frothy head. Sweet hop aroma. A wet smell that’s not sticky. Soft hops upfront that provides for a wet bitter background. Some kind of tart fruit in the taste. Almost like kumquat or dry grapefruit. Finish is wetter than expected and not distastefully bitter. Better than anticipated.

Oct 20, 2009 Serving: Draft.
Appearance: Light copper color with a pillowy, off-white head. Decent head retention and good lacing left behind.
Aroma: Nice pine hop nose with citrus and dark honey notes.
Flavor: A big pine hop wallop up front. It quickly fades, leaving behind orange citrus, herbal, and grass notes.
Palate: Medium carbonation with a medium-light, dry mouthfeel and a medium, hoppy finish. Lighter in body than I was expecting.
Overall: A lighter, but solid IPA. The light body and dryness make this one extremely sessionable. A nice take on the style.
