| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 9, 2005 Poured a fairly clear copper color with a small off-white head. Aroma of some hops, fruit, light caramel. Starts with some malt and finishes with light to moderate hops, both flavor and bitter. Light to medium body. Has balance for the most part but nothing really stands out. shadey (1501), Rochester, New York, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Apr 7, 2005 light orange color with no head. Mild aroma and flavor. How is this called an IPA? Oakes (8139), Kowloon, Hong Kong

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 5, 2005 Aroma of malt and hops, copper, small tan head. Flavour has quite a citrusy start, with a malt backbone. Medium bodied, balanced, very bitter. Really nice. Thanks IPFreely for a new state! Eyedrinkale (3209), Astoria, New York, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Apr 5, 2005 Bottle @ Radekfest. Light amber color with a small head. Aroma promises a nice hoppiness but it lies. Taste has honey, which I don’t care for in an IPA. Lively, chewy mouthfeel and a sweet maltiness. Some hops in there but nothing to speak of. Why would they get into bottling? joeycapps (1466), Waterdown, Ontario, Canada
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 4, 2005 Slightly hazy copper w/ finger of off-white foam. Fresh citrus-y hop aroma w/ an underlying maltiness. Medium, slightly thin feel. Straight forward, uncomplicated, decently balanced flavour of caramel, pine, & grapefruit. Moderately bitter. mds (2112), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 22, 2005 Interesting medium-brown with a dusty clarity. Lots of pineapple in the aroma, plus a good dose of citrus salad. Good initial bitterness, watery in the middle, then back to a long, bitter finish. Pleasant, chalky texture. Flavour contains a touch of malt but it’s the hops that dominate. A nice, muscular IPA.
