The aroma was pine, floral, sweet malts and hops. The flavor was actually very smooth and malty. The Hops were strong but well hidden. Overall, a tasty brew. JoeMcPhee (4893), Jackson Heights, New York, USA Nov 1, 2009 Tap at Blind Tiger. Deep amber pour. Thick white head. The nose is an odd resiny honeyed sweetness. Sort of muddy and indistinctly hoppy. A fairly sweet maltiness with a bit of light bitterness. It tastes like a lot of other crappy IIPAs… honey-sweet and muddle hops do not a great beer make. blutt59 (2042), Dallas, Texas, USA Oct 31, 2009 bottle, via trade with beachbum25, golden color with no foam, aroma of spiked pines, flavors of fruity hops and citrus Cavie (1317), Fort Worth, Texas, USA Oct 31, 2009 Bottle courtesy of thirdeye11.

Aroma of table sugar, tangerine and other citrus. Taste is pine, sugar, bitterness, and a little bit of straight hop resin. Light bubbles. Bot amazing, but not bad either.
