Feb 26, 2009 Bottle, courtesy someone. Copper clear pour, white thin head, and smooth lacing. Nose has some dry chocolate notes, spices, and slight hops. Slight dry caramel maltiness, dry grain, and slight chocolate. So where are the hops? Medium-bodied, balanced, but boring.

Feb 22, 2009 22 oz bottle. Pours copper red with a frothy white head that retains well and laces the glass.
The aroma is subdued - caramel malts, some melon and tropical fruits and spices and a hint of pine.
The flavor is caramel malts and tropical fruit with a decent grassy bitterness. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with sharp carbonation.
Overall, it has good bitterness for a pale ale, but would be a pretty mediocre IPA.

Feb 8, 2009 From ratman197’s bottle at Bistro DIPA. This amber ale poured with a thin white head and a strong genever aroma. There is a smooth caramel malt body with some nice hopping to produce pine at the finish.

Jan 30, 2009 22oz bottle $5 from Total Beverage. Nice heavy orange color, transparent, bubbly, and has a foamy head. It has a nice hoppy smell, floral, pine, good. The flavor is a seriously hoppy pale ale. the smell made me think it might taste like an IPA but it is more like a hoppy pale ale. This was a good beer.
