| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 5/20 | Apr 25, 2009 On tap at the Bocktown, nice place. Looks like pale american lager. Smells line pine tree sap. Bitter sappy oily initial palate. Hey, did you wash the dish soap out of this glass? Wew, way too in yer face. Needs manners. Ruining and roto-tilling my taste buds. Has some surprizing carbonation. Did you ever chew on green grapefruit rinds? Later dude, Rude and crude finish. On style. ante (2928), Stockholm, Sweden

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 18, 2009 On tap. Springy floral aroma and a persistent light head. The flavor is all out varied hops, pine and grapefruit. It is a little dry and hides the 9.2 ABV well, but it is a touch harsh and shellacky, as if you could use it on your deck or something. But this is still a good IPA. Rciesla (3590), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA
