Nov 5, 2007 Poured a caramel hazy colour a medium frothy tan head. Aroma is creamy, caramel malts and citrus hops. Initial is a bold bitter astrigent hops overlaying with a slight malts sweetness. The bitter hops seem to overwhelm the malts and take over from the start to finish. Finishing with a bitter hops and earthy tones. Some lacing of the glass and head retention. Medium body, palate duration is average.

Sep 28, 2007 Pours a clouded and very dark ruby hued amber. Mild nose with some pine like citrus scents to it and an almost salty edge as well. Flavor is smooth with hops. No hop bomb here though. Just a pretty smooth and even pine like character. Feel is higher with carbonation on the tongue and a thicker almost syrupy liquid feel. Drinkable, sure. It is a good IPA, but no home run.

Sep 27, 2007 12 ounce bottle from jjpm74
Pours a dark red with a dark white (?) head Leaves some nice lace behing.
Really good grapefruit and pine nose, with some biscuity malt.
The flavor is 90/10 hops to malt. Just the way I like it. The signature rough bitter finish of Chinook hops is also one of my faves.
Really easy to drink medium body with pleasant carbonation and a medium dry finish.
I sure would love to have this one around everyday.
