| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | 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.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 17, 2009 On tap at The Half Pint, NYC. Golden body with tall head. Notes of hops and citrus. Lots and lots of hop in the taste. Really nice. With malts in evidence too. Silky finish. A delight. georgekillian (221), USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 16, 2009 Very complex and deep IPA. Has a very dry aftertaste but is not as bitter as it seems with all the malts and hops used. Is a very good IPA joebudzjoe (229), Connecticut, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 14, 2009 Bottle. Typical dry IPA with citrus nose and grassy hoppy flavor. Tight carbonation. Pretty good, but blends in with the IPA crowd. tpd975 (209), Riverview, Florida, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 10, 2009 A: Copper orange color with a medium head that settles down perfectly. A few bubbles rise to the top helping to keep a lilly pad like head and there is some lacing left behind as it is consumed.
S: Not a lot of aroma, but what’s here is nice. A bready sweet maltiness is right up front. The hop aroma is noted, but not overpowering. The hops show up smelling like pungent flowers and cut grass.
T: A very nice yet mild IPA. It starts off kind of sweet and malty, but only for a moment. Then the hops kick in. The IBU’s can’t be very high. There is a hint of bitterness with a dab of pine.
M: Medium bodied and easy drinking. Ron (1027), Rochester, New York, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 6, 2009 Bottle. Pours clear gold with a medium off-white head. Sweet malt nose with some earthy hops. Citrus and grassy hop flavor up front giving way to sweet malt before a bitter finish. Teege (112), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 1, 2009 Draft at redlight redlight. Very good though mild IPA. Great starting beer. Lots of grapefruit in the nose, a little pine. Really not any hoppier than the New Dog Town. Would need to try them back to back to really compare. Nice hop flavor but not aggressive. I’m into it. scooterbub (380), Lander, Wyoming, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 30, 2009 Bottle. Pours a nice copper color with a thin, foamy, white head that slowly fades. Taste is of hops, pine, citrus, grapefruit, caramel and some malt. Similar aroma. Easy to drink and leaves me wanting more. Not a bad beer and is worth picking up again. bonk0076 (92), Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 30, 2009 12 ounce bottle. Pours a clear amber color with a moderate cream head that leaves a sticky web of a lacing. Aroma is dominated by citrus and pine notes with caramel lying underneath them. Taste is the same, with the citrus and pine notes being more pronounced, and the caramel barely being noticable.
