| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 20, 2009 what an odd beer, neither IPA or ESB like. nose is pure malt, neither toffee nor sticky/sweet...somewhere inbetween i have rarely if ever experienced before. color is wonderful dark amber. flavor is mostly of malt, but in the end rather well balanced. the same lightly fruity malt profile comes through but hops die it down at the end. i was not expecting or even hoping for a hop bomb, but i have trouble believing this is a replica of the hop fortified beers that shipped from tadcaster to mumbai so long ago...

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 20, 2009 Bottle. Amber with white head. Fruity, nice aroma. The taste is surprisingly weak and thin after that aroma. Hops as expected, a bit dry. AndyReynolds (283), Wilder, Kentucky, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | May 19, 2009 Bottle. Pours a transparent amber with a small whit head. Aroma is strong of fruity malts and bread. Notes of citrus, caramel, hops, and pine come out too. The taste is a bit weak for an IPA, more fruity and malty than I expected. The finish is a bit dry with a slight hoppy bite. Not my favorite by any means, but worth a second try. osb33 (16), Milwaukee, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 19, 2009 This was shockingly good. Not to be worshiped as the best beer I have ever tasted, but it is certainly better than most. However, the only qualm I have is that the beer was a little bitter for me. drseusszb200 (199), Florida, USA
