| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 31, 2006 2006 bomber. Really enjoyed this gem. Pours a slightly hazy copper-orange hue under a dense and tight white head. Intense luscious aromas of crushed fresh pine needles, along with grapefruit and orange rind. Palate is extremely silky smooth with a fine carbonation. Flavor much like the aroma; lots of fresh pine and citrus abound, supported by a nice balance of background caramelly malt sweetness and warming alcohol. Finishes with a long, crisp hoppy bitterness. A lot to enjoy here for an IPA-lover/hop head. Gotta give this one a try! jzzbassman (850), New Albany, Mississippi, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 28, 2006 Thanks to Santa for this 22 oz bottle - Poured a copper color with a nice tight head that left great lacing after it left. Aroma is a little on the piney side, with a lot of alcohol in the initial inhale. Flavor has a fusel tinge that dims as it warms. Malty with nice bitterness that really comes together for a nice finish. Ughsmash (4062), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Jul 26, 2006 On tap at Landmark 1850 Inn. Poured a deep hazy amber with a creamy white head. Huge pine and rich, alcohol-fueled citrus push up front... with an odd vegetal undertow that detracts a little. In the flavor department, this forms a much-needed bitter assault on the palate... sporting pine needles and freshly-squeezed grapefruit. Rich, sweet caramel malts provide a sufficient base. Very good stuff! Bockyhorsey (2552), Mesa, Arizona, USA

Copper colored body with good head and good lacing. Flavor has a good citrus syrupy feel to it. Some dryness on the palate. Refreshing brew after a friday night fish fry in Wisconsin. wilkie (1191), Raleigh, North Carolina, USA
