Jul 20, 2007 Tap. Pours with a nice golden color and a medium head. Aromas of citrus, grass and hops. Flavors of citrus, grassy, pretty aggressive hops. This is not flowery but more like a wet hops beer. Grains deliver some contrast in the background, but that this is a serious IPA.

Jul 18, 2007 Cloudy goldon color with a ton of sediment, probably the most sedimented bottle condition ale i have ever had. Weak hop aroma if you really stick your nose far int eh glass for a long time, thin mouth feel. Some hops flavor and bitterness, both very low for the style, not a good IPA at all, contrary to the commericial description this IS a beginner IPA and not for true hop heads.

Jul 18, 2007 Bright apricot shaded pour with lasting foam. A straightforward rendition right from the soil. Grapefruit, caramel, and jasmine aroma. A bit of earthiness. Grass and vegetal thickness on the tongue with a fragrant meadow wetness. Only a quiet hint of butterscotch sugars, achieving a favorable, floral hop forward balance. A tint of pungency on the palate, leaving a coating of woody sweetness. The standard. Thanks Andrew!

Jul 16, 2007 I got this one from the NEPA case split from Steff and Brett. I really dig this brewery now. This IPA is so well balanced between bitter tones, grapefruit tones with a touch of apricots, and a smooth palate which draws my tongue towards sipping this beer more and more. There is a perfume-like sticky malt quality underlying the bitter elements. Its a bit cloying but the rest of this beer is enjoyable.

Jul 16, 2007 In bottle. Much more suttle bitterness than most IPA’s. I hope when i’m as old as the guys on the label I can still enjoy great beer. A very nice, smooth beer enjoyed on an even nicer summer day.

Jul 12, 2007 Medium orange-gold with medium-dense buff head and a good amount of carbonation. Crisp, light fruity hop notes of green apple and grapefruit in the aroma. Flavor is lightly malty with a bit of apricot fruitiness leads into a broad hops bitterness and a long bitter finish. Well balanced light body that just the right amount of malt in the mouthfeel.

Jul 11, 2007 Strong pine and citrus nose, pours a dark cloudy amber with almost no head. This beer starts with a bit of sweet malt before the bitter hops run across your tongue, and set up small camps. Extraordinarily long bitter finish, and I really wish this was distributed to my neck of the woods.

Jul 11, 2007 Bu au Lompoc Café à Bar Harbor, Maine, en fut (20 oz). Arome d’houblon mi-amère, quelque notes de pêches intéressant. Goût d’houblon bien amère, avec une finission sucré de caramel doux et de pêche.
