Mar 4, 2004 Copper/orange color. Small head. Not much aroma some hops maybe. Not real hoppy for an IPA but it's a good beer.

Jan 18, 2004 This is a good IPA. Hoppy, pine, and spicey flavors. Finishes crisp, clean and smooth.

Dec 16, 2003 Bomber. Murky brown with red tint, minimal head. Light carbonation altogether. Lately I've found myself disliking super-hoppy beers, so this IPA comes as a pleasant change from the majority of other IPA's I've encoutered this year. Not that hops are bad, just a personal preference of late. This beer has a wonderful hop aroma, sweet and floral. Taste improves as I keep drinking, with a very solid English malt backing. This is an IPA of English descent, not Western US, but has a nice hop balance nonetheless, without trying to cover up any lack of quality in the malt. Flavor alternates between strong English malts and hop bite, and the finish is relatively long. Just a good overall beer.

Dec 6, 2003 Copper color with small quickly dissipating head. Fairly malty for an IPA with a generous hoppiness. Nicely balanced, I felt this brew was less hoppy than their ESB.

Sep 18, 2003 Pours a thick copper orange with a whispy laced white head. Aroma consists of bittering hops and some caramel. Good, thick sweet body with plenty of hops and a crisp dry bittersweet finish. A nice, well-rounded IPA.

Aug 28, 2003 Has a great clouded orange color with some carbonation and a hop smell. Taste is all hops and finishes nicely bitter. Overall this is a pretty good IPA.
