scraff (1672), Baltimore, Maryland, USA Jul 15, 2008 Light hazed orange, thin off-white fizzy head. Light toasted piney earth and floral nose warms to a sweet caramel undercurrent. Soft bitter dried citrus flavors with no semblance of balancing malt. Light bodied, medium carbonation, quick drying bitter finish. Lacks refinement…
Rynoplasty (253), Louisville, Kentucky, USA Oct 12, 2008 Pours hazy light amber with a decent off white head. Aroma is citrusy lightly malty. Taste is fairly light bodied and seems fairly lightly hopped at first but has a nice bitter finish. Very easy to drink. ChristianScheffel (2250), Odense, Denmark Oct 10, 2008 Slightly hazy amber with a small white head. A good strong hop aroma with peach, grapefruit and pine dominating. Sweetish fruity flavour, and good hoppy bitterness. joshwilfong (537), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 10, 2008 dark brown with white head. hoppy nose. flavor with a nice hint of crystal malt with good hop bitterness and flavor. not an overwhelming IPA, but one that is a solid example of a mild version of the style wheelz843 (38), Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA Oct 5, 2008 bottle. orange in color with a decent head. has a little bit of a fruit beer taste. Boutip (1815), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada Oct 2, 2008 Bottle: Poured a deep orangey color ale with a medium foamy head with good retention and light lacing. Aroma consists of medium bitter hops with some noticeable caramel malt. Taste is a middle of the road mix between some bitter hops and sweet caramel malt. No floral notes or citrus notes discernable that would have provided differentiation within the style. Average body with some average carbonation. Overall this is not bad but just really another middle of the road IPA.
