355ml bottle from De Molen beer shop. Copper amber colour. Pretty decent IPA, Good piney hoppy aroma, ok malts in the middle, bit of unsubtle alcohol, then more leafy piney hops on the end. Just something not quite smooth about it, maybe just a bit too boozy?? Some juicy malts. Good aroma, decent attempt, but as I say, the heat is just a bit obvious.

Nov 28, 2009 12oz bottle from Chevy Chase in DC. Triple-hopped, huh? Just like Miller Lite! Pours a clear golden color with a medium-sized white head and some lacing. Aroma is sweet pale malt, grain, floral and citrus hops. Flavor is a little grainy and sweet with lots of pale malt and some citrusy hops. Medium body with lively carbonation and some hop resins on the palate.

Nov 19, 2009 Pours a bright, clear, yellowish copper from the 12oz. bottle: Nose of citrusy, grassy hops. Taste is similar with more of a malted balance than an overload of hops. I live for that severe overload. Lightly carbonated and bodied, this ale unfortunately feels a little lackluster. Drinkability: A vibrant and solid IPA, but may fall short to hopheads. Rebuy: I mean, it’s SoTi and an IPA! Of course I’m buying again. #201 on 19112009, DG.

Nov 15, 2009 THOUGHTS: Better balanced than the new Pale Ale., but still a little hop heavy. Not very memorable, but nice.
TECHNICAL: Bottle. Poured a light to medium orange with an average, ever so slightly, off-white head that mostly diminished, but somehow left excellent lacing. The aroma was nice, but a little weak. There was moderate, caramel malt, lighter candied fruit and moderate to heavy orangey hops and lighter resinous hops. The initial flavor was sweet and lightly bitter; while the finish was sweeter and rather bitter with a long duration. There was orangey citrus hops, candied fruit, pine hops and caramel. The light to medium body was a little syrupy and then slightly dry with lightly fizzy carbonation and a slightly chalky and lightly metallic finish.

Nov 13, 2009 On draft at Isaac Newtons. Pours a golden amber color. Cascade dominates the aroma as well as the flavor. Pretty good IPA but there is definitely better.

Nov 12, 2009 12 oz bottle from TC Craft. Golden brown pour with a thin white head. Fresh, citrus, hoppy aroma. Typical IPA flavor, not too in your face. Nice and hoppy with a bitter finish. Decent but uneventful for me.
