Nov 26, 2005 Pours a clear copper with a thin ring of white head. Aroma of dry sugar cookie dough with some faint earthy hops. Body starts with some sugary malt balanced with dry, earthy hops and thins considerably toward a lack-luster, watery and lightly bittersweet finish. Nowhere near enough hops to be a true IPA and the malt just doesn’t show any fullness or complexity.

Nov 16, 2005 Pours medium amber-gold with long lasting white head. Little bit of citrusy hops in aroma. Small amount of bitterness in start, but doesn’t carry through. More like a hoppy Pale Ale than an IPA. Smooth, fairly drinkable, but nothing special.

Sep 22, 2005 Some hope in this brew from MC as I raise my glass and detect hops. Clear amber, decent head retention.
Hints of pineapple (noticed this in one other brew of theirs) which I did not enjoy, but overall a good standard beer in a town with very little to offer to beer lovers.

Jul 14, 2005 I could come back for a jug of this. Good head retention. Orange colour. Very nice hop aroma. Decent IPA. Not West Coast but lasting finish. Decent malt foundation and adequate hops.

Jul 4, 2005 very weak on the nose, just a bit of grassy hops. appearance was very nice, a clear gold color with a creamy white head that coated the sides of the glass. flavor transitioned from bitter hops to some caramel malts, back to the bitter hops, giving the end a strong bite and a lingering bitterness and a slick buttery mouthfeel. if this had a little better balance, it would have been much better, the flavors were not blended well.

Jul 4, 2005 (on tap) Not much of an aroma. Color was right for an IPA. The hops were there in the flavor, but not terribly strong. The aftertaste had an appropriately hoppy bitternees. Decent, but not great beer.
