| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 9, 2006 Dark amber with off white head. The nose had some caramel and hops, as did the taste. A well balanced brew. nick76 (2684), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Mar 8, 2006 The aroma has caramel malt and floral hops but not as hoppy as many IPA’s. The appearance is deep golden color with a slightly orange tint. The head is medium but is persistant. The flavor is very nice and you can taste the hops that were missing in the aroma giving it a grapefruit quality. What I like about it most is the caramel malt that balances well with the hops. The palate is smooth. This is a good beer but more like a bitter than an IPA. jpm30 (1588), East Central, Georgia, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Mar 8, 2006 From a 12 oz. twist cap long neck brown bottle with a notched "Best Enjoyed Before" date on the left side of label, Feb/06. Made a good appearance, poured a amber hued golden with a billowing, foamy white head that slowly reduced to a thin. pancake-like foamy clingy lacing. Mild in it’s aroma, even for an English IPA, candied fruit, bubblegum, flowery hops, and a faint caramel maltiness. Good carbonation and a crisp, smooth light bodied mouth feel, average drinkability. Had a candied fruity taste, an earthy hop bitterness, a mild caramel maltiness and a dry, crisp bubblegum hop finish.

| 1.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 4/20 | Feb 26, 2006 This is one of the poorer IPAs that i have had. Very watered down taste mixed with something that didn’t really taste like hopps. I threw this one out about halfway. It is possible that I had a bad one though.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Feb 25, 2006 Medium amount of white head. Golden body with a very crip hoppy aroma. Clean taste with a nice smooth ending. maniac (2628), Richmond, Virginia, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Feb 25, 2006 Clear amber color with a thick creamy white head. Sweet malt aroma with light hints of hops. Flavor is fairly mild with barely hints of light bitterness and a touch of floral hops. Skycast (7), Colorado, USA does not count | 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Feb 19, 2006 Little to no head and a very light hops aroma upon pouring. The texture and flavor are almost bland with nothing that jumps out at you. As a homebrewer that likes fuggles hops, I’m sorely dissapointed in this beer. crizay (1050), Brook Park (was Tampa,FL), Ohio, USA
| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Feb 19, 2006 Pours amber color with nice white head. Very very thin and watery tasting, if Michelob Ultra made a pale ale this would be it. Really nothing going on other than a low carb pale taste.
