Jul 5, 2004 Updated: Jul 16, 2005Really nice beer. Nice hazy cloudy look to go along with a heavy dosage of hops to this bitter. Almost like an IBA or something... highly recommended.

Mar 14, 2004 Bottle. Pours cloudy orange-amber with a moderate white head that diminished leisurely. Aroma reminds me of a good IPA, sweet caramel malts, lots of citrus hoppiness. Flavor is good, it took me a few sips to really take in the fullness of this brew. It's immediately sweet and bitter at the same time, nicely balanced, though definitely a hop monster. Bracing grapefruit bitterness and a lingering puckering astringency. Medium body and easy carbonation. Not a session ale in my book, definitely one to sip and savor.

Apr 25, 2004 Mild hop nose. Nice semi-cloudy brownish orange with a clinging white head. Nice body, great hop balance with the malt. Great beer.

Aug 23, 2004 Updated: Aug 9, 2005bottle 22 oz. Semi clear orange/copper, big large bubble straw/white head, very good carbonation, moderate lace. Aroma is light roasted but full presence malt w plenty of hops and a touch of grapefruit & toffee. Flavor is light roasted but full malt, somewhat sweet w good hop flavor and considerable bitterness on the palate and in the finish. Some alcohol taste. There are some similarities to Stone IPA but less sweetness. Medium bodied. 7/19/05 I’ve been drinking this for a few days now....good stuff. Nice spiciness in the mix too. 8/9/05 I’m bumping this up one point, had a few on tap yesterday, I sure like this brew, could drink it all day.

Feb 16, 2004 Copper honey hue. Fresh grapefruit juice and orange zest nose and taste with a touch of pine. This is my first bitter. Hope they're all this good.
