Jun 21, 2004 Clear copper orange - nice color; very little head, but good lacing. Aroma is sweet malty and floral. Taste is medium thick; full of sweet malts, almost sugary down the center of my tongue. Hops aren’t quite as strong as they could’ve been, but they were pleasant - lightly citrus, floral. The sweet malts come in again in the finish. Thanks to my high-rollin’ friend Rick for bringing me this one

Jun 12, 2004 Pours a lighter amber color, white-ish head. Floral hop aroma, mild malt present. Flavor is decent, some hops, light malt, lightly bitter finish. Light to medium bodied. A decent IPA for those that don’t yet like IPAs.

May 31, 2004 Draft - Copper/amber colored with an off-white head. Decent hop aroma that, unfortunately did not quite follow through in the flavor. Hops are there, but in too small a quantity for an IPA. Malt is present, but only slightly. Definitely has been brewed for the broader appeal. Very drinkable and I enjoyed it, but I wish it had more hop punch to it.

Mar 12, 2004 Toffee and sweat aroma. Very light amber or dark honey gold. Woody bitterness, dry, skewed towards the tart side like many of their other brews. Goes watery. More like a red ale. Very mild toffee, very light sweetness. Underhopped for an IPA.

Feb 13, 2004 Decent hop nose in this one. Palate is very thin. The hops tasted stale and not quite enough for an IPA.

Feb 4, 2004 bottled:
this one probably the better of the beers at monte carlo, although i havent had them all. slight hop aroma, and not a huge hop on the palate like you would expect from an IPA. watery and weak, made for the non-beer conisseur. bud drinkers take notice.

Jul 28, 2003 Tap @ Reno Festival. Amber color with a tan head. Orange and citrus flavors with a hop balance. Enjoyable and refreshing.
