dkoonce (750), People’s Republic of Athens, Ohio, USA Aug 18, 2008 Amber, with very little head. For and IPA, the aroma is a bit weak. Very resinous flavor with a medium body. Accommodating as an IPA, it’s nothing special. dwedin (238), Portland, Oregon, USA Apr 21, 2008 Citrus aromas. Good bitterness, smooth, balanced, nice toasted malt, clean, a little ordinary, no boldness. troopie (481), USA Dec 11, 2007 Draught. Poured amber with a floral nose. Lekker hoppiness in the flavour with a malty backbone. Hopy finish. This was the best of the beers I tried today. AlabastorJones (624), San Francisco, California, USA Feb 11, 2007 clear golden with a creamy yellow head, aroma of strawberries and fresh hops, warming, citrus, dry finish Old_Mr_Crow (1014), Seattle, Washington, USA Sep 7, 2005 On tap at the Bethesda MD location.
Pours amber with a decent head. The aroma is citrus and floral; the flavor is sweeter than expected with a relatively weak contribution from the hops, and the mouthfeel is sticky rather than refreshing. While this is a reasonable enough beer (and better than the other offerings which I sampled from friends but did not drink by the glass), it’s nothing special.
