Nov 24, 2006 Bottle 46F. Pint. Fairly large hop aroma, floral notes were nice. Poured much darker than i expected, with a small head that dissipated quickly. Good citrus grapefruit hops notes. A light palate than I expected considering the darker color that it poured. Mostly grapefruit flavor with little malts to speak of, a bit too one dimensional for me but not too bad.

Nov 20, 2006 Bottle. Pours golden with a nice head. Nice aromas of hops, flowers and orange. Fairly complex flavors of a hoppy bitterness and a nice fruitiness that end ona flowery note and have a nice lasting finish. This is a rather bold IPA< almost like a West Coast style hop bomb, however with a more nuanced complexity, quite outstanding I might say.

Nov 3, 2006 Murky medium orange pour with a farily thick off-white head - looks good. Nice, fresh floral aroma, some sprucey notes. Flavor is hoppy with grapefruity notes and not much else. No real maltiness in this to balance this one out. As a result, the mouthfeel is slighlty stinging. Needs some work. Gift from Aurelius - left over from his "ale in the mail" shipment.

Nov 3, 2006 poured a slightly opaque oragne-amber hue with a rich full froathy white head. A mildly piney aroma with citrus notes. A full IPA with nice bittering hop notes and some citrusy notes, a touch of honey and a crisp finish.

Oct 20, 2006 On-tap at Pizza Plant in Buffalo. Very bitter bias but clear c-hop. A serviceable IPA but tasted like a citrus cold medicine to me. Carbonation a bit aggressive. Peachy clour. No clear hop aroma.Didnt all go together, but would have it again in a bottle if pushed on me.
