It’s a good attempt, but falls short. Like my wife said when she was in Providence, "they had this on tap, & Budweiser. I chose the Long Hammer." RaginCajun (284), Dallas, Texas, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Jan 1, 2008 This beer has a great floral hop aroma, but the finish has something to be desired. Otherwise, it is a mediocre West Coast IPA. BMan1113VR (2894), Los Angeles (and Dallas), Texas, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 1, 2008 On tap at the Outriger Canoe Club. Nice and refreshing. Pours a deep clear gold with a white head with very good lacing. Flavor is a nice refreshing bitter IPA style bite. FROTHINGSLOSH (2030), GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Jan 1, 2008 Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a bright golden color with a small yellow-white head. The aroma was sweet grapefruit and pine. The flavor is bitter and tart fruity hops with a off tasting malt base. Sour tangy finish. This one smelled nice but in no way lived up to the aroma.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 31, 2007 Cask at GBBF 2007. An unclear golden beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of malt, hops, and grapefruit, as well as light fruity esters. The flavor is sweet malty with strong notes of grapefruit, leading to a rather bitter and grassy finish. dslunsford1 (55), Hampton, Virginia, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 30, 2007 This is a great IPA. Maybe not the greatest that money can buy, but great tasting and smooth quality with a strong hoppy flavor. I am not sure why this beer isn’t rated higher, but I’ll definitely be buying more of these if I can find them in the 6-packs (I got this one in a Redhook Sampler).

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 29, 2007 orange/copper color with debris floating in it with no head what so ever. the taste is a little malt with a rather light amount of hops for an ipa. i actually like this one because most ipa’s are stronger on the hops than i prefer.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 28, 2007 Assertive bitterness without too much pine or citrus gettin in the way. I enjoyed this one and kinda with there were more of these diminutive malt IPAs in BC.
