| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Apr 7, 2008 Nice bitter IPA from red hook. Gloabors are hoppy and sour. Interesting mix of flavors. Pours light gold with a medium head. Skeegle (495), Maryland, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Mar 28, 2008 Blaaahhh. That about does it people. Thanks for your time. (smells great, tastes like fart-liquid) wacohoover (100), Garland, Texas, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 27, 2008 I agree that this is a "safe" IPA, in that it’s easy to drink, and not overwhelming. But, to me it could use a little more flavor. It’s good, but average. drunkinsailor (4), Milton, Florida, USA does not count | 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Mar 11, 2008 Not too keen on IPA. The aroma is up there, strong but not overwhelming. After taste is bitter, kind of off putting at first. I found it to be dry. joebudzjoe (227), Connecticut, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 2/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 11, 2008 Red Hook makes one of the safest IPAs for me. There’s a great, surprisingly sweet hop taste without the excess bitterness. chandler0201 (341), Durham, North Carolina, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 11, 2008 Average aroma, but the flavor really brought it out for me, maybe it is because I have always had this on tap. Poured crisp and clean every time, with a hint of bitterness in the aftertaste. marcus (1869), Sacramento, California, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Feb 22, 2008 This light amber ale poured with a thin off-white head and a floral aroma. The flavor is thin - slightly malty with a bitter and dry hoppy finish. Goodgrief (1152), Middletown, Delaware, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 17, 2008 Feb. 2007 - "Ballard Bitter IPA" - Poured cloudy brownish yellow, next to no head and light lacing. Aroma was of citrusy hops. This one is pure hopwater...citrusy flavors and very little malt. Not overly bitter, a tad weak. Nothing "wrong" with it...just a run of the mill, slightly below average IPA. Dull.
