| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jan 17, 2009 Trade from StFun - Thanks! The first thing you notice is the aroma - fresh and floral, with a few woodsy, piney notes mixed in. The flavor is unbalanced and overly bitter, which works in this brew. Very crisp, loral hops, with just a touch of caramel malt to back it up. Very enjoyable. GAManiac (1184), Atlanta, Georgia, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 14, 2009 22oz bottle poured into a pint glass.
An aggressive pour produces a bright, slightly hazy amber brew with a pillowy off-white head that leaves a cap and decent lacing.
The aroma is dominated by bright green hops, resulting in lots of lemon and orange aromas with hints of other light fruits such as apricot and peaches. There is also some sweet caramel malts underneath.
The taste is very citrusy from start to finish with lots of lemons and some grapefruit. The malts seem a little more biscuity than the aroma and the finish is slightly bitter with a little less sweetness overall than the aroma.
The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with lots of carbonation and a slightly dry, bitter finish.
This is a very good harvest IPA and extremely drinkable. Another nice brew from Three Floyds. travita (1937), Frisco, Texas, USA

| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Jan 10, 2009 Very enjoyable harvest ale! Thanks kiefdog for the share. Pours a golden brown color with a white head. Nose is amazing floral hops- I swear I can smell something like magnolia or honeysuckle. Very mellow on the bitter hops. Flavor is mellow, some citrus and pine, but mostly very gentle floral hops. Enjoyable and sessionable; changed my mind about Simcoe hops; much less aggressive than other Sincoe beers I have had.

Copper body with off white thin head. Good citrus grapefruit flavor along with a suger sweetener. Dry carbinated bitter belch on the finish. Odd just had an IPA made with Simcoe hop and had the same rating pretty much.
