Aug 7, 2009 Pours copper with a white head. Smells perfumy with some bitter citrus and resiny hints. Tastes citrussy and floral with a dry bitter finish.

Aug 4, 2009 Better than average pale. amber pour with a big fluffy head that stays around. Aroma is citrus and bread. Nicely balanced with some sweet malt up front and hop bitterness at the end. Very dry finish.

Mar 7, 2009 Bomber brought from Charlottesville by Josh - Thanks! Medium amber color with a very slight white head. Aroma is mostly floral/citric hop. Medium body with mild carbonation. Flavor is floral hop, so it’s not all that bitter. Finish is dryish, smooth and a bit oily. Leaves bitterness around the tongue edges. Certainly not your typical NW hophead IPA, but I think there’s more hop in here than it’s getting credit for. Otherwise I think I’d be getting a lot stronger dose of malt.

Oct 18, 2008 On tap @ the Brewpub-Clear orange color w/a slight head. Citrus hop aroma. Thought this was pretty bland for an IPA, had some hops to it but nothing to write home about. Maybe some grass & grain thrown in, but it just didn’t do a whole lot for me. Not bad, just blah! Short hop finish.

Aug 4, 2008 Note that this bottle was kept cold andhandled properly, thanks to Steve’s wife! Steve, CelticBrew and DrBayern shared this with me. Presents a nice, big white head that lasts. It has a nice golden, clear appearance. It has a light sweet aroma. The mouthfeel is good, and the taste is malty with just the right amount of sweetness.

Aug 3, 2008 Shared by Steve at his house with DrBayern, DoBoy and me! Poured from bomber a bright golden blond. Formed nice bubbley foam, left incredible lacing. Aroma of cotton candy, hops, field grass. Flavour was sweet, with a slight toffee character. Nice surprise, good beer from Legend. Thanks Steve!

Jul 21, 2008 22oz bottle pours medium honey orange color. First smell is fresh, oily hop cones, but over time and with a little temperature there’s more of this crusty bread and honey malt scent, a faint note of caramel malt as well. Flavor shows more of this caramel and honey flavor, graham cracker-like, with a moderate bitterness and a greenish note of hop leafs. Okay overall, but nothing terribly impressive.
