| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 28, 2008 By far the best beer that I have had from sweetwater. This is one of the most drinkable IPAs I have had. Nice strong flavor of citrus hops and light malt sweetness. Lightly bitter finish. Perfectly balanced. Light carbonation and small head. oreogobbler (217), Austin, Texas, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 27, 2008 Pours a cloudy dark yellow. Thin head. The aroma is a bouquet of citrus, pine, and just a little touch of hops. Lime, Lemon, pineapple, pine. The flavor is an increadably balanced mix of all of the above. Not too hoppy and not to over baring, the palate is smooth and thick but easily drinkable anytime of day. Wonderful example of an IPA. fattibobatti (246), Tallahassee, Florida, USA

Nose is sweet and light, could use a bit of warming probably. Taste is sweet, with a mild hop flavor. This is decent, but lacks the oomph I like in ipas, that said its also drinkable.

Amber pour with thin light-tan head. The aroma reminds me of Troegs nugget nectar, with a slight ’old foot cheese’ quality. Pleasant pine hop flavor was enjoyable. A bit cloying on the palate. ericandersnavy (1067), crossroads, Texas, USA
