| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 25, 2004 Very cloudy and medium orange. Mildly carbonated. Wholesome malts - bready, rich cookie dough sweetness. Hops were citrusy and piney with a little orange and grapefruit. Zingy bitterness with some grapefruit in the finish. Dry. Tasty and pleasant. argo0 (6978), Washington DC, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 24, 2004 (RBSG04) Hazy amber body with off-white head. Aroma is medium sweet, flora/orange. Taste is medium sweet. Highly unusual in that on the tongue it is strong bitter -- grapefruit, bit of herb; but the finish is fairly mild. Caramel also present. Medium body.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | Jul 20, 2004 Drank from growler at the RBSG 2004. Golden, hazy. Rather flat and underhopped. Some minor citrus fruits but unremarkable. beerinmarch (2829), Washington, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 18, 2004 Pours a light orange/golden color with a small white head. Strong floral and citrus hop nose. Taste starts faintly sweet and malty but quickly fades to a nice hoppy, bitter end. Very smooth with a dry finish and some good hop tastes left behind. JohnC (2286), Mission Viejo, California, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 18, 2004 THis is a big, hoppy citric IPA. Amber color, clear. sampled at RBSG 04. Even though the commercial description says it’s well balanced, I found it to be a one dimensional hop monster. DomiNate (123), Boise, Idaho, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 2, 2004 Golden brown, and a little cloudy on the pour. Generous amount of head. Smells of grapefruit and citrus. Sharp bitterness, just like eating a freshly ripe grapefruit without any sugar. Nice beer. ¾ (4999), Colorado, USA

Floral and citrus hop aromas almost cover up all the malt. Well balanced flavors of malt and hops, a bit of bread comes out as well. Very delectable. Creamy palate. Damn fine IPA
