marcus (990), Sacramento, California, USA Jul 2, 2008 This reddish copper ale poured from a can with a decent beige head and a floral aroma. There is a delicious caramel malt base overlaid with just the right amount of bittering hops to produce a smooth refreshing flavor.
grant (760), Martinez, California, USA Sep 5, 2008 12 oz. can courtesy of DYCSoccer17 - thanks. Nice slightly hazy sunny orange, ample and long-lasting head. Orange and pine needle aroma, light roastiness and toffee. Rather reminiscent of Drake’s IPA in the nose. Rather dusty grain flavor with rounded mandarin orange hops flavor, spiky sprucey notes, sweet doughiness/honey. Lightly sweet finish, some grain powder and moderate bitterness. Very nice IPA. golubj (995), Redwood City, California, USA Sep 4, 2008 Can shared at the CA-GA cultural beer exchange hosted by alexanderj. Gold with white head. Aroma is sweet malt, citrus, and pine. Flavor is the same, somewhat grainy / biscuity, but the bittering hops are a nice addition. JMFG (1140), Florida, USA Sep 3, 2008 Courtesy SoLan. Cloudy dark copper-golden color, thin sparse head. Moderate earthy hop aroma, fruity malts. Light citric hop character on the taste. Pretty mild hops on finish. HomeBrewHawk (127), De Soto, Kansas, USA Aug 31, 2008 Thanks to Dansting for this one. 12 oz can served in a shaker pint. Poured a hazy gold with a finger of tight bubbled white head. Nice citrusy hop aroma with some sweet malt. Some caramel malt sweetness, decent amount of hop bitterness. Medium body. Drinkable. I got a slightly soapy taste from the hops that dinged my rating a bit. A decent IPA. carl4beer (272), Fairfax Station, Virginia, USA Aug 30, 2008 12oz can. bonus from agentsteve. pours a copper with a sizable off white head. aroma is pine and citrus hops. mouthful is a smooth caramel malt that is followed by some big citrus hop. finish is pretty crisp, excellent ipa. gotta love the micro cans!!!
