| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 18, 2008 Mini-Growler Fill: Pours a caramel amber color, light off-white head and nice lacing. Nose of light pine with some caramel malt and a touch of roast, plenty of citrus and grapefruit too. The flavor is balanced, an acidic bitter hoppy flavor initially followed by a light dusty dry malt note. Creamy tail and a mellow mouthfeel. Nice beer, very IPAish. Thanks Jeremy!
