| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jun 6, 2008 In short: A juicy (grapefruits and such) hoppy blonde ale . Very refreshing
How: Tap at brewpub
TheyThe look: Cloudy blonde body with a long-lasting medium white head.
In long: Tropical fruits covered by honey and some caramel. Very juicy floral hops with quite a bit of grapefruits and a medium tartness. Very refreshing. No alcohol presence whatsoever. Fresh crispness feeling. Nothing resinous or heavy here, this IPA more concerned about being refreshing than being a hard-core extreme bitter American IPA. To kick more ass this beer would have to served in a boot. Rogueone (506), I F&ckin’ hate those guys from, Ohio, USA

Smells like fresh squeezed white grapefruits. Bitterness just rolls off the tongue here. Dangerously drinkable. sneagrams3 (1757), St. Louis, Missouri, USA

Citrus and grapefruit nose. Crisp smooth and appley. Bright and fresh. WOW! Big and meaty beer. Full bodied and sticky. Lotta hoppy flavor. So nice.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 29, 2008 Sampled at Pre-DLD gathering thanks to kmweaver. Pours a hazy orange with an off-white head. Nose is citrusy, orange, and caramelized malts. Watery body. Caramels, citrus, grass and pine flavors. The citrus and grass notes linger for a while on the tongue with a bitter finish. Decent beer. kmweaver (2465), Sebastopol, California, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Apr 28, 2008 Draft @ The Livery. Pours a bright, deep honey-golden color; bright white head with perfect retention and lacing that coats the glass; a gorgeous pour. Resiny, sweet oranges and citrus hops in the aroma; soft and generous and juicy. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: intensely smooth, resinous oranges, citrus, and floral hoppy notes upfront; touch of acidity; so smooth, resiny, oily and dense; intensely drinkable. Awesome IPA. Lengthy finish: resinous oranges, citrus, and a touch of sugar. pantanap (1356), Chicago, Illinois, USA
