mmmbeer (737), Austin, Texas, USA Sep 29, 2007 From 12 oz bottle- poured burnt orange color, head formed and went away slowly. Hoppy aroma with hints of fruit. Hits the palate with a small body, strong hop overtone, hop finish. I’m not a big fan of IPA’s, but I wouldn’t turn this down if offered, nice. SamuraiArtist (292), portland, Oregon, USA Sep 28, 2007 From a bottle: Pours a copper orange color. Lightly malty and citrusy aroma. Flavor is somewhat malty with floral hops and citrus fruit rind flavors. Moderate clean bitterness. Clean and crisp finish. Balanced and very drinkable but nothing stands out about it. BigMilly8 (374), Holiday, Florida, USA Sep 27, 2007 From bottle : A medium dark orange color with a white foamy head. Nice floral hops aroma with pine. A heavy medium body. The flavor is a little spicey, but very well balanced with the hops and malts. A little bitterness stays on the tip of your tongue, its a nice aftertaste. keoki182 (305), West Bend, Wisconsin, USA Sep 27, 2007 Orange body with lemon yellow head. Head has various sized bubbles in clumps. Lines of tiny bubbles line the sides of my pint glass. Lots of navel orange citrus aroma. Familiar nose of walking through a pine forest as well. Really full and spicy flavor/mouthfeel. Light aftertaste after the onslaught of hop bitters during swallow. The entire flavor stays on a packet on your tongue and disappears with the swallow. A light sharpness remains on the back of my tongue, but that’s all. Pretty good IPA. fro2218 (466), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Sep 27, 2007 Citrusy and spicy. Pretty tasty. Could sit and drink a few of these. 65 malts huh...? Snojerk321 (1917), San Diego, California, USA Sep 23, 2007 6pack from Bevmo La Mesa. a little too much on the "herbal" side for me, never the less a great IPA.
