argo0 (6176), Washington DC, USA Jul 23, 2007 Cloudy amber body topped by creamy beige head with lovely lacing. Aroma is medium sweet, grapefruit/orange, light pine. Taste is medium sweet, grapefruit, light pine. Fairly bitter. Watery medium body, some resin. ruggedman (416), Portland, Maine, USA Jun 17, 2006 Updated: Jul 17, 2006Poured amber with a small thin head. Smells of piney hops. Nice hop attitude, but like the Ale i had here it’s got those same semi-dingy tasting hops. They added them much better in this brew though. Very dry with a piney hop aftertaste. Good, not great....especially compared to the IPAs I’ve had.
7/16/06 re-taste. I missed some key citrus notes the first time. Doesn’t really change my feelings about the beer, just worthy of noting. CapFlu (3292), Victoria, British Columbia, Canada Aug 17, 2005 (Draught) Sampled at the brewpub in Hollowell, ME. Pours a thin, white, foamy head with an amber body. Nose of mild hops - something like Hart Amber Ale? Seems to be in an English style? Little Grapefruit and West Coast influence. Flavour is equally un-enlightening - which matches the thin body. Yawn! Boring... beerbuzzmontreal (2701), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Aug 9, 2005 Clear amber color with a thin white head. Aroma and flavor of spicy hops and caramel. Light to medium body, soft carbonation. Dickinsonbeer (2514), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA Aug 26, 2004 Another bad IPA. Plus I had a bunch of other bad beers here and the service sucked so Im not even gonna bother putting up the other brews like bug lager etc. Waste of my time.
