Flavor the same, with the hops taking the fore. Toes the line but never crosses into grainy - a very unified and easy drinking IPA. anders37 (4792), Malmö, Sweden

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jan 3, 2009 Bomber, for 4 bucks. Appears bright orange, which is a good indication of the crisp, juicy flavor to come. Aroma features orange, citrus, grapefruit, and more hops. Flavor follows suit, with special prominence to a tangerine lemon flavor. Finish has both tartness and bitterness, due to the concentration of citrusy notes. Excellent. popephred (193), Plainfield, Illinois, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 30, 2008 Poured from the bottle into a tulip glass. Pour produced a cloudy rust-orange body, topped by an off-white head, rock head of foam. Aroma is laden with hops, along with some citrus notes. Medium bodied, with moderate carbonation, partnered with the bitterness you expect from an IPA. Some caramel notes brought out from the malts, but this is clearly a hop-heavy beer. Bitter aftertaste, which is to be expected, though not quite as piney as I would like. A solid IPA. Beardface (1036), Eugene, Oregon, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 25, 2008 Hazy orange pour with a very nice white head. Strong grapefruit aroma with a little bit of a nutty backdrop. Caramel and citrus hop flavors mingle enticingly and there might be a little hint of orange as well. A very tasty and relatively cheap IPA. KimJohansen (7149), Copenhagen V, Denmark

Lots of caramel in the backbone with a light hoppy citrus body with some other light fruity esters and a mild hop bitterness. Good brew simple and enjoyable.

Nice grapefruit and pine hop aroma and flavors. Some maltiness hiding in the background. Average on the palate. A very nice, lower priced IPA.
