| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Aug 29, 2008 Growler shared by beastiefan2k. Pours a hazy, orange-gold with a thin beige head that laces nicely. The nose is of bright, fruity, citric hops with a nice, almost nutty, malt backing. Light to medium-bodied with a nutty, bitter-hopped finish. The flavor follows the nose with a nicely bitter, resinous finish. This is an interesting IPA; quite nice. Thanks again for bringing this back from the Minneapolis, Eugene! JMFG (1514), Florida, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Aug 22, 2008 Sampled from growler @ RBSG, thanks to whoever brought this. Clear amber color, thin white layer of head. Spicy hop profile, balanced between earthy and citric. Nice clean and refreshing citric hop kick that lingers for a while. Refreshing and well done.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 19, 2008 On tap at the brewpub. Golden orange in color. Aroma of citrus and piney hops. Flavor is somewhat floral and citrus, slightly bitter, and nicely balanced. A little weak on the hops in my opinion, and a tad thin. A good beer, but I guess I thought this one didn’t live up to its reputation... wickedpete (627), Lexington Park, Maryland, USA

Buttery, spiced, earthy aroma with some hops showing. Watered down flavor with caramel and a strong bitter aftertaste. Dry palate. mgumby10 (1858), Jupiter, Florida, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 5, 2008 Growler at RBSG. Pours a lightly hazy copper color, with a small off white head. Smells of bready yeast, dark sweet syrupy malts, and a decent hop presence. The hops really start to shine though in the flavor as it forms a crisp hop bitterness around the palate trapping it. The malt provides a little balance in the finish, but this baby finishes off hoppier than it started. Pretty nice.
