Goregous hop flavor all the way through this beer. Attractive biscuity and bready maltiness, and a finish with that great real ale mouthfeel. Hab40oz (242), Grants Pass, Oregon, USA

Relative to other IPAs I’ve had, I thought this was pretty good. The description I read was dead-on - "lots of malt flavors, intense hop finish" ElGaucho (1730), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Feb 7, 2005 Burlingame. Fruity aroma. Hops really not detectable in the nose. Creamy, off-white head. A little faint visible carbonation. Good lace. Nice peppery body. Discernably hoppier than the Pale ale. Very similar to the White Dog PA, but just hoppier. I also had the cask version but my taste buds were too burnt out to rate it. It was smoother, creamier and good, though I preferred the standard. BückDich (4848), McCall, Idaho, USA

Nose of hop resin, something horizon or Amarillo like, pale malt & dry alcohol. Nice plum feeling in the mouth and a clean finish. AleDrinker (1090), Sunnyvale, California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 4, 2007 Brilliant IPA here. Pours golden, slightly hazy with a medium head. Leaves plenty of lacework on the glass. Flavors are potent of citrus and berries. Flavor is slightly sweet but not cloying. Finish is very smooth and bitter. Excellent. duff (5475), Surrey, Greater London, England

Massive sweet lychee flavour. Pine and grapefruit, as is alwasy the case with USIPA’s. Little creatures pale ale kept coming to mind while having this, real tasty stuff. motelpogo (4394), Plzen, Czech Republic
