Jul 10, 2005 Updated: Oct 1, 2006Pours a deep clear golden with a white head. Very nice Pacific NW hop aroma. Flavor has the usual hoppy notes of grapefruit, citrus and pine. I found that this brew was lacking in malt character. Bitter finish. Medium body with moderate carbonation. Good lacing and head retention. Solid stuff.
RERATE- ON TAP AT RB CHICAGO- strong grapefruit rind and cattiness in the nose (cluster hops?) Cloudy unfiltered golden orange with a white head. Flavor has notes of sweet pale malt which acts as a showcase for the grapefruit/citrus assualt. Very bitter hop finish. Medium bodied with a smooth texture and moderate carbonation.

Jul 4, 2005 Had this in a growler from the King of Prussia Location. Pours a golden amber with a nice white head. Grapefruit and floral aroma with an equal grapefruit taste complimented with a piney IPA taste. Nice, rather smooth IPA. A refreshing yet hoppy summer ale.

Jun 30, 2005 The July special just put on tap the day I was visiting. Nice grapefruit and pine hop aroma. Very fresh and bright. Golden with a white head. Flavor is malty with an orange and pine hop taste. Finish is bitter and grassy. Medium body, dry texture. Great after a long day of walking around Chicago in 90 deg. weather. Note: This is called "American Dream IPA." I entered it wrong and sent a correction.

Aug 18, 2004 A reasonable APA with just a little too much in the way of hops. Nice malty flavor though saves it.
