Dec 15, 2006 Zesty hops burst forth from the can. Oranges and pine are carried over a reddish amber, fairly flat ale. The hops are the shop here…lots of dusty dry bitterness. Lemon zinger is fairly prominent with a delicious puckering citrus at the swallow. The sweet malt gives enough of a platform to make this a delicious quaffer - not overly sweet or alcoholic. This is quite a pleasant hop bomb - and easy to quaff. Thanks Jeff.

Jan 26, 2007 Thanks to hellomynameis for a very nice IPA. This is the second IPA I’ve had which was packaged in a can. Both have been very good. It pours a nice dark amber color with a frothy head. the flavor is nice and hoppy with some malty backbone. Very enjoyable..

Nov 28, 2006 Poured a hazy copper color with a thin off-white head. Big fresh hop aroma with notes of grapefruit and pine. Caramel malt gives a backbone underneath. The flavor was hop forward. Hoppy grapefruit flesh and rind. Semi-dry finish. The bitterness at the end kept ramping up along the long finish.

Nov 5, 2006 This IPA rocked! An amber color with a moderate head. The aroma is full of perfume and spice. I also sniff out some pears and oranges. The flavor is quite bitter on this one. I taste some lemons, orange peel, and vanilla. The finish is rather bitter. A well balanced and excellent beer!

Jun 4, 2007 Medium sized tan head with good retention and a sweet coating lace that lasts. Clear copper/amber colored brew. Nose is plentiful with juicey, citrusy hops, light pine and a light malty sweetness. Body is medium, coating on the palate, invitingly resiny and just a tad chewy, me like it! Plenty of hoppy goodness, fruity, citrusy and bit piney also. The crystal malts are well balanced with all the hoppy goodness. Mildly sweet and a bit bready, doughy. Finish is lightly sweet, hoppy as hell with a big ole hop bite to conclude this ride. For some reson i taste a little Arrogance here, hmmm. One swell IPA, indeed. Thanks to Robert @ ststelineliquors for this bad boy. Much appreciated!! Man i,ts great to be a lover of the Pale Strong!

Jun 9, 2007 Thanks to Skyview I finally got to try it. Dark pour with big off-white head. HOPS, my oh my are there hops on the nose. Pine is all over this nose. Big orange peel flavor up front that is well balanced with a hint of roasty malt. Medium body that coats the palate with hops, finish as expected is hoppy that just leads to the next sip!

Jan 23, 2008 Can, 6.2%. Thanks, yespr. Powerful hop aroma, very nice, fat, teaish and caramelly. Almost clear dark brown colour. Small tan head. The flavour is quite bitter, turning into a good hop flavour and then back to bitter. The bitterness is clean and pleasant and the hop flavour quite teaish. Good maltiness to balance the hops.
