| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Aug 2, 2008 Aroma is orangy as fuck. All of the good IPAs seem to have the same hop profile. All fucking oranges. Some malt complexities- okay, I lied. All fucking caramel and orange.
Taste is orange, some bitterness, well, a lot of bitterness, but creamy and smooth.
Finish lingers like nobodies business.
Awesome. Haslinger (649), Syracuse, New York, USA

| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Dec 24, 2007 On tap at Russian River - Golden-amber color with a light head. Aroma is dominated by sweet citrus hoppiness. Flavor is a nice citrus hop, sweet mix of goodness. Some light and sweet malts here, but mostly just solid IPA. The way all IPAs should be - perfect malt/hop balance for a regular IPA. Vinny is a genious with this stuff! LooseCannon (936), Norfolk, Virginia, USA

| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Nov 8, 2009 Bottle from a transAmerican trade with Ryan, RAGE brother. Beautiful pour. Nice, fluffy white head. Strong and complex aroma -- fresh hops. Caramel, pine, citrus. Finish is long and sweet. Very well balanced. Great lacing. In the same league with Two Hearted (and that’s really saying something, as that might be my favorite beer). Fairly light bodied, in a good way. A great one. glennmastrange (858), hobe sound, Florida, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Nov 3, 2007 Tap. Light caramel note for the malt, heavy note of orange/grapefruit and pine for the hops, and a light smell of dough and musty for the yeast with apple and wood in the background. Head is small, creamy, white, has excellent lacing and is mostly lasting. Color is a clear amber. Flavor starts lightly sweet and moderately bitter, then the very long finish is moderately acidic and heavily bitter. Palate is medium, oily/creamy and has a carbonation between soft and lively. It finishes astringent and very dry and crisp. This a fantastic IPA.
