Ansset13 (121), Wilmington, North Carolina, USA Oct 18, 2007 This is what a "wet" hop ale should be. The nose is filled with hops, and is peppery. Pours a brilliant amber with nice white head, and great lacing. The flavor is crisp and balanced almost perfectly. A true hop lovers beer.
mikalooch (18), , New Jersey, USA Sep 3, 2008 22oz bottle, 1st release 2008.
Pours a rich amber color with a pillowy beige head. Can definitely smell the earthiness, fresh hops with lemon and a sweet undertone. Hops from the get go with a hint of sweetness, close to honey, even some spices. Very rich mouthfeel with a smooth and drinakable finish. Teriffic and refreshing beer, definitely one of the better 2008 releases that I have had. epf33 (151), Fairfax, Virginia, USA Sep 2, 2008 one of the best beers of all time, better than the SN summerfest, you can taste the "harvest" in it OldRaspy (281), Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA Aug 30, 2008 Poured from the 22oz bottle a deep amber with an off-white head. Aroma was all citrus hops. Flavor was a solid malt with the grapefruit all throughout. daknole (699), Plantation, Florida, USA Aug 24, 2008 Good IPA for something mass produced. Copper pour with a nice head. Aroma is pure citrus with maybe a slight hint of bread. Taste is a hop party with malts crasing the bitter party at the end. Well done. mephisto (1099), Taiwan Aug 18, 2008 cloudy yellow with off white head, it has a bready aroma with the signature grapefruit accent. the flavor is wonderfully floral and malty, well balanced.
