Oakes (6819), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Nov 22, 2005 Moderate PNW hop aroma with plenty of syrupy malt. Moderate bitterness. Hops are a little dull. Indistinct malts are a little more forward, but again are not showing any clear character. Mouthfeel is a bit spritzy. kp (6200), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Aug 13, 2008 Date: 07/13/2008

BückDich (4525), Boise, Idaho, USA Apr 9, 2008 Tap @ Brewery: Copper, light head and lacing. Nose of cascade. No dry hops? Bitter and malty, so what... A little innovation please with PNW IPAs. hopdog (4525), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 10, 2006 22oz bottle acquired in trade with Larry Pitonka (thanks!). Poured a medium and lightly hazy orange color with a smaller sized off white head. Some very small floaters. Aromas dominated by pine cones with some citrus. Tastes of pine, citrus, tangerines, light caramel and ended in a grapefruity bitterness. This one gave me some nice pine burps. acrdz (4248), Pennsylvania, USA Aug 5, 2005 Draft at the brewery
Clear orange copper color. Sweaty BO scent, with a similar flavor: coarse and woody, bold and unpleasent wood with a wet, sweaty flavor. The finish is more of leafy hops, but this beer suffers a lot. Not a good flavor as all. Thick texture, but too sweaty and tinny.
