Dec 25, 2008 Bottle Poured an more amber color. An almost overflowing white head. Smell is light hops. Flavors are very light pine and grapefruit. Mouth is slightly bitter. An OK beer but a far cry from the West Coast IPAs I am use to.

Dec 22, 2008 Bottle from a BIF from thewimperoo - thanks! Pours amber with an off white, tan pillowy head. Not a very noticeable nose, slight malt and hops. I get a lot of apricot across the palate. Finish is dry and crisp. Good beer.

Dec 20, 2008 Bottle. Pours a slight amber, off white head. Aroma is citrus, malt and hops. Flavor is more of the , though the malt notes are a little more pronounced than the hops. Nice finish, doesnt linger long on the tongue.

Dec 2, 2008 Bottle. Almost like a Wets Coast IPA. Very strong hops aromas. Flavors of hops, pine and some grapefruit. In the finish some malts and sweetness comes through making it more well rounded than a hop bomb. Nicely done.

Dec 1, 2008 This one poured light orange with a sustained head. The caramel malt does come through and is balanced with the resinous hop flavor and aroma. A good solid thirst quencher in the IPA mold.

Nov 28, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours orange/amber with a huge white head. Aroma is very piney and citrusy, with some malt presence. Flavor is nice and hoppy with a good malt balance, but it finishes surprisingly thin. Still pretty good overall.

Nov 18, 2008 Updated: Dec 27, 200812oz bottle. Deep toffee orange-brown color, looks filtered. Foamy head, fresh stuff. Strong but not astringent orange citrus hop aroma. Rich and malty with a solid hop assault. Really captures a lot of the IIPA characteristics without the high alcohol. Excellent beer. Second time through and I find it to have more English IPA qualities, nice watery body with a pleasant earth hoppyness.

Oct 30, 2008 Nice hop aroma, with the caramel backbone supporting it. Pours a clear, nice reddish amber, with a cap of off white head. Nicely balanced, not quite as hoppy as the aroma led me to believe. Very nicely balanced, and easy to drink. Nothing extraordinary, but a solid beer.
