| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 5, 2006 On tap at the brewpub. Dark gold in color. White head. Average appearance for an IPA. Mild hop aroma. Flavor is outstanding- this is a solid brewpub IPA. Just delicious berries, floral and citrusy hop bitterness. Beautiful lacing. Oakes (8093), gone rambling, Vietnam
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Feb 21, 2006 Bright golden-copper colour. LIght fruity, citrusy hop aroma. Only light bitterness for style but lots of chewy maltiness...light crystal. The finish is a bit spritzy. Flavour is fairly standard but the mouthfeel is substandard...not very rounded. omhper (12229), Stockholm, Sweden
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Feb 15, 2006 Draught at the brewpub. Clear deep golden. Lychee aroma. Sweet up front with solid, rounded malt profile, yet dominated by powerful hoppiness. Resiny very bitter finish. Aggresive. mreeves (257), Sammamish, Washington, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 3, 2005 Lots of hops in this one, almost giving it a bit of a metallic taste. Maybe a little over the top in that respect. Still, a good IPA and certaintly worth having. tupalev (2617), Waterloo, Ontario, Canada
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 29, 2005 On tap at the brewpub. Love the "thirsty bear" logo of this brewery. Orange, thick small white head. Aggressive citrus hops and some malt in aroma. Very bitter and unbalanced taste with nutty brown malt. Lots of flavour, it just doesn’t come together like it should. Becomes harsh the longer it sits. Just ok. argo0 (6907), Washington DC, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 12, 2005 On tap at the brewpub in downtown San Francisco. Pours with a dark orange appearance, frothy white head, decent lacing. The aroma has a pronounced sprucey tint to it and the standard citrusy hoppy flavor. Not tongue numbing bitter, balanced well with some nutty malty notes. Decently creamy mouthfeel is a tad too stingy.
