| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 25, 2009 Very filtered looking. Dark orange, some head. Pure hops nose. Smell like hops but I guess on the piney side of citrus. Decent mouthfeel, silky, somewhat try, decent balance between the malt and hops. Not sure about the high average rating. This is a decent honest beer but not a lot special going on here. ljay6880 (163), , Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 22, 2009 12 oz draft served in a clear pint glass. Nose is citrus, caramel, and florally hops. Taste is very much the same. I was pleasantly surprised by this brew. Enough malt to balance the hop, and a good bit borrowed from some of the best IPAs. A very tasty step towards developing a taste for hops. JediMindTricks (240), Hampton, Virginia, USA

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 19, 2009 From 12 oz bottle. Taste of malt and hops. Taste of caramel. The bottle indicates that there is spice in here, if so it was not very prevalent. A pretty good beer, but in my opinion it is a bit overrated. mpersinger (191), , California, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 17, 2009 From bottle, pours with great clarity and warm amber color. Comes with a range of malt and hop flavors, medium-lean body (profile reminds me of a light Red Rocket) and steady finish. broozer81 (67), , New Jersey, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 4, 2009 Bottle in Virginia. Pours a deep caramel with a nice whitish head that leaves a thin sticky lacing. Aroma is a nice complex hop profile with caramel and rye. The flavor is similar. A delightful aftertaste of floral hops remains well after the glass was empty.
