| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Nov 28, 2009 Hand pumped cask conditioned barrel at the Gingerman in Austin, TX. Beautiful orange amber cascade settled to a hazy light copper under a creamy off-white head. Thick curtains of lacing. Aroma of pine and grapefruit. Citrusy flavor with milk chocolate and lightly toasted malt. Velvetty rich texture and a smooth, mildly bitter finish. My first hand pumped cask conditioned IPA and hopfully not my last. A very pleasant surprise in the heart of Texas. DaSilky1 (2023), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 24, 2009 Bottle courtesy of Kaggie69: Pours a brilliant yet muddy shade of orange, like pumpkin from a can. The head settled in a very thin, not so full sheet above. Nose was of orange soda and sweet flowers. Flavors were of a powdery floral nature giving way to hints of jasmine and orange. Much more floral and powdery than citrusy and/or pine resin..the alcohol is sometimes peppery in the back of the throat. Has a bit of a stale/cardboard-like character to it, but it’s not overly distracting. Bitterness is surprisingly strong. 6ROW (274), corpus christi, Texas, USA

Appearance: Light red/brown with a small off white head and a tiny amount of visible carbonation. Aroma: A nice floral bouquet at first then followed by an earthy, breadiness with spice and lemons. Interesting. Flavour: Spicy hops! Nice zesty feel on the tongue with a delicious grapefruitiness that seems to linger well into the finish. Lovely. ericandersnavy (1139), crossroads, Texas, USA
