Very fruity aroma, with some grapefruit and honey,plus a touch of caramel. A little heavy at first, then a nice dry, flinty citrusy hop bite mixed with fruity sweetness. Nice and tasty.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 1, 2007 Bitter. Decent hops. A fairly tasty IPA from the mid-Missouri region. This is about as close as we get to decent IPA drinking - include Schlafly’s and that’s all we got. StewardofGondor (1934), Washington Heights - Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 20, 2007 Mildly hazed and buffed caramel orange with a billowing tan head reaching north of two inches. Aroma is fantastic. Kiwi, mango and starfruit meet honey glazed ruby red grapefruit pulp. A hint of maple sweetening rides the sugared orangey peach cotton to the nose’s content. Flavor continues much of the same, with an orange marmalade glaze over doughy biscuits triumphing over the sweet aromatic hop precursors. Carbonation is a touch harsh and the bittering hops only amplify their dynamic effect. Orange sprigs and honey blossom pine mix and match throughout the quaff. Bran flakes are fiercely stricken by cascade hop pellets. The sweetness drops away for cascade glades. Biscuity allocations and a mineral-esque aftertaste circle down the hatch with the fading, bitter peach and mango sentiments in the end. LilKem (1210), Marietta, Ohio, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 2, 2007 deep orange opaque color with rocky white foamy head. and actually, don’t think i’m weird, but i touched the head and it didn’t move and it was sticky firmly holding everything into place stronger than hairnet. flavor is very agreeable. lots of strong but not crazy overpowering hops. citrus (lemon and orange) almost feel like they are infused with merigue, and pine, apple, and fruity malty goodness, for lack of better terms . dm9831 (1167), Monee, Illinois, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 16, 2008 pours a nice hazy copper with an impressive, nicely lacing off-white head. the aroma is non-agressive hops and citrus. flavor is bubbly grapefruit and hops with some, but not much bitterness. medium bodied. mildly amusing. i enjoyed this beer, but (you knew there had to be a but), it is not as good as some of the stronger ipa’s. and why did it take 5 days to make this?
