Jun 12, 2005 Draft. Orange/Yellow color with a nice white head that lasted most the glass. The lacing was beautiful. Lasted the etire glass and was great to look at. I even showed my non-beer drinking friend that this was a great example of what we call lacing. He didn’t really care. Aromas were mostly grapefruity hoppiness with a touch of pine. Flavors were a little stonger, but mostly just typical IPA. The mouthfeel was a little less viscous than most IPAs that I have enjoyed, a little watered down, but overall the beer was very good.

May 27, 2004 Right from the tap at the brewing co. A mild IPA, thin white head that diminishes quickly (solvents on glass?) Nice color yellow goldish, Good carbination volume and good mouth feel. Not a crazy hopped IPA, on the moderate to low side. One weird flavor= slight yeat profile with tinge of diacytl...not indicative ove Ale yeasts at all.. Not bad, but I was suprised to notice this attribute, perhaps not aged enough or mutated yeast...who knows.
All this said, I would try the beer again.

Apr 7, 2004 Updated: Apr 8, 2004Filled a jug@brewpub. Cloudy peach color with a moderate off white head. Nose is light sweet citrus. Flavor starts kinda sweet followed by a quick hop bite finishing with a light dry, lingering bitterness. Nice session IPA.

Nov 30, 2003 Normal washy dry leaf color to it. Nice head. Mod aroma of pine. Decent pine in the body and it really just follow the norm for IPA's and really isnt too powerful or too weak, Nice and refreshing.

Nov 30, 2003 clear amber with a very slight cherry tainted white lacey head of tiny bubbs...semi-sweet hop aroma that dies rather quickly..clean and balanced profile with a weak hoppy foreground..tangy sweet citrus notes..almost too balanced for an IPA...stays rather refreshing and clean though...so Shibby.
