| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 9, 2005 On tap at the Sly Fox Brew Pub. Poured a medium and clear amber color with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of citrus and flowers. Tastes of citrus with a nice grapefruit finish. For an IPA, I liked the bitterness in this one. Some lacing left on the glass. JoeMcPhee (5025), Jackson Heights, New York, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 15, 2007 Tap at Hop Devil Grill. Deep amber beer with a thick white head. These beers always look great. Strong resinous hop aroma, pine and fresh grapefruit/orange fruitiness. Toasted malts, grassy/piney hops. Chewy hop flavour throughout. Light orange peel flavour as well. It’s straightforward, but well made... I think this is a hop that works better as part of a blend, but it’s still a solid brew.

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 15, 2005 Another very good IPA from the Sly Fox. This one is deep copper going toward brown with a 1-finger off-white head. The aroma is fruity citrus with hops and caramel malt hints. The flavor is fruity and a bit dry initially, with emerging grapefruit, honeydew, and canteloupe ay mid-palate. Nice complexity and balance. egajdzis (3631), Spring Mount, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 9, 2005 Poured a clear amber color, with a small, off white head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of citrus fruits, notably tangerine, perfume, and grassy hops. Taste was dry and bitter, lots of grapefruit, some metal, almost like a penny. Least favorite from the IPA project to date.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 18, 2005 Simcoe was my favorite in 2004 , and now chinook is my favorite for 2005. Has lots of pine and citrus, with some harsh almost smoke-like hints in the end. Flavor is raw with fresh chinook hops- similar to AB without the thick dark crystal malts. I really like the raw harsh bitterness that chinook leaves- probably from the high cohumulone. TomDecapolis (3202), Skippack, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 24, 2005 Pours a translucent orange amber with a small off white head. Aroma of floral hops, some citrus and caramel malts as well. Flavor was bitter grapefruit, one dimensional as expected, but decently balanced out. michael-pollack (2723), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Nov 23, 2005 Draught @ Pheonixville: Smells hoppy and bitter with hints of cherry, choclate, pepper, and malts. Orange in color. Clear. Small white head. Small lacing. Flavor is lightly sweet but heavily bitter. Tastes of hops, cherrys, pepper, and a little roasted. Medium body. Lively carbination. Bitter finish. Leaves mouth bitter. Overall, a good all around IPA I could drink a lot of. obxdude10 (1562), Pottstown, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 16, 2005 Deep copper in color, huge off-white head, nice lacing around the glass, aroma full of hops & citrus, very dry & sharp flavor, very hoppy, also notes of caramel & a bit of citrus in the body, very dry & spicy finish, another very good IPA
