Aug 21, 2009 can thanks mashmaster. Poured a dark redish/orange color with a nice big head. Aroma is nice balanced hops with some sweetness. taste is very well balanced and drinkable. Hops dominate but dont over power. There is a light sweetness through out and the finish is clean. Very good.

Aug 20, 2009 Had from a pint can into a glass during a homebrew party. Very nice IPA that is helping prove that cans work!

Aug 20, 2009 Sublime! 500ml can bought at Surdycks in Minneapolis Minnesota.
The grapefruit aroma leaps out of the can. On tasting it’s certainly more sweet hop forward than malty but the balance creeps in later in the flavor profile. Well rounded in the final analysis and soooo drinkable that it’s certainly a favorite.

Aug 19, 2009 Are we sure this is actually a beer? The aroma is overwhelmingly grapefruity and the flavor is very grapefruity. I feel like this could be considered a serving of fruit by the FDA and since you are supposed to have 6 servings of fruit per day, I’ll take a 6-pack.

Aug 13, 2009 16oz can. I am not a big hops guy or a big IPA fan, but I still really enjoyed this beer. Pours a very thick, cloudy red/orange with a creamy off-white head that will not die. The aroma is thick with citrus and hops. Flavor is a mix of a peppery grapefruit hops and malt. I think there is an almost perfect malt/hop balance. That ballance is why I like this beer even though it is not my "style" Another good beer from Surly that is very drinkable and nice.

Aug 13, 2009 Eagan, Mn. - Old Chicago Pizza - on tap. Dark copper pour, nice sticky, slightly off-white head that leave generous lacing. Fresh spruce aroma with some minty accents. full bodied flavor with plenty of bitter grapefruit, some nectarines and a bit of chocolate-toffee maltiness to balance it out. Nice, sticky mouthfeel. Excellent way to start off my vacation.

Aug 10, 2009 16 oz. can thanks to tennisjoel. Dark orange pour with a creamy off-white head. Strong piney, grassy, and citrus hop aroma. Bitter hop flavor of mild grapefruit and pine with just a slight toffee sweetness to balance. Not sticky at all but just perfect for an IPA. This is one the better IPAs I’ve had.
