| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 9, 2004 a pretty solid IPA, pours a light golden color, good white head and thick lacing, a strong hop presence, sweet right at the start and then bitter from the middle to the end, not as flavorful as some but still pretty damn good. dirtymike (2018), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 24, 2004 Hazy golden-orange with a creamy-white head. Pastry-like nose. Mild carbonation. Smooth on the tongue. Malts were nice, with notes bread, sugar cookies, and grains. Hops were very flowery, with notes of pine, grass, lemon, and grapefruit. Lingering bitterness kind of dries out the tongue. Not bad. ¾ (4999), Colorado, USA

Lightly fruity and flowery nose, very citrusy acidic and bitter in the body, a bit too thin, little sugar. Damn this is dry stuff; too dry. Doesn’t work, really. jeffin7 (610), Silver Spring, Maryland, USA
