Ty5592 (1015), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 19, 2007 Clear orange color. Massive lacing. Good bitter flavor with earthy finish. On tap at the Slyfox IPA Project event. hopdog (5525), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 14, 2007 On tap at the Phoenixville location. Poured an amber color with an off white head. Aromas of floral hops with some pine. Tastes floral hops, pine, and had a light spiciness in the finish. golubj (1275), Sunnyvale, California, USA Sep 3, 2007 Draft at the Blind Tiger. Some floral and pine hops in the aroma. The flavor has some slightly earthy malt up front followed by a citrusy / piney hop bitterness. Tastes a little like a dry-hopped beer though with the hops being somewhat metallic, but it’s not too bad in that regard. kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Sep 1, 2007 Date: 07/25/2007

Maverick34 (686), New York, USA Aug 23, 2007 Draft. Darkish amber pour. Overhopped and not well balanced for my tastes. Mild hops - interesting but not very enjoyable to my taste. goldtwins (4078), Nesconset, New York, USA Aug 22, 2007 Tap @ Sly Fox. The beer was clear orange with an off-white head. The aroma was hoppy some citrus notes but mainly floral. There was also toasted malt with a mild fruitiness. The flavor was dominated with floral hops. The bitterness was big full and kept growing through the very long dry finish. puzzl (2579), New York, New York, USA Aug 15, 2007 On tap at Ginger Man. Very dark red pour. No head. Muddy hop aroma, kind of earthy, orange and mushroom. Caramel and bitter hop taste. Pumello and very dry citrus. An interesting hop, kind of a cross between British and American. JoeMcPhee (4893), Jackson Heights, New York, USA Aug 15, 2007 Tap at Ginger Man. Bright amber/orange colour with a thick fluffy tan head. Very fruity hop aroma with black currant, black berry and a soft woody resinousness. Jammy with light spiciness as well. Flavour is very hoppy with just enough malt sweetness to restrain it. Toasted grain and sweet caramel on the back set against strong resinous bitterness. Nice balance and another solid single hop brew. This hop is particularly nice.
