Jul 30, 2009 Tap at Blind Tiger: Hazy orange with dense consistent film of head. Mild grapefruit character in the aroma with some cookie-like malt notes and caramel. Creamy on the palate. Decent flavor, yet it has an odd artificial sweetener note that coats the palate. Cookieish sweet malts with a syrupy orange note and that coating artificial sweetner aftertaste which ruins a potentially mediocre IPA.

Jul 28, 2009 16oz draft @ For the Love of Hops 6/609-Pours a orangish amber with a decent off white head. Aroma of hops and citrus. Tast of the same with a little malt thrown in. This medium bodied brew is quite tasty.

Jul 31, 2009 On tap at Blind Tiger. Pours a clear orange with a thick white head. Aroma of citrus, hop oils, and crackery malt. Flavor of some of the same crackery malt and citrusy hops. Very drinkable and delicious.

Aug 3, 2009 Had on tap at the brewpub. I love Two Brothers but wasn’t impressed much by this IPA.

Aug 1, 2009 Tap at BT. Aroma of tropical fruits, perhaps papaya and/or passionfruit?...in any case, fruity hop goodness. Flavor adds a big dose of sweet malt to all the fruity hoppiness. Tasty stuff.

Jun 5, 2009 On tap at the Galway Tribes (Frankfort, IL). Commemorative for and drank on Closing Day. Pours a nice amber hue, a bit dark, reddish, small offwhite head that dies to a film. Aromas are a bit of caramel malt, fruity with some underlying grapefruit, lemon, zest. Body is moderate, caramel and good fruit, a bit underhopped but surprisingly drinkable. Finishes a bit bitter, grapefruit and a touch tropical with faint piney resin. I will truly miss my stomping ground, The Galway Tribes. Cheers!

Jun 6, 2009 Was on tap @ Map Room. Pours clear amber with small off white head. Aroma of caramel malt, which was stronger than the citrus hops...not really what I was expecting from an IPA. Decent body, easy to drink, but not very strong hop flavor. Was average.

Jul 1, 2009 nice enjoyable, possibly sessionable, crisp hoppy offering. has a slight marshmellowness taste to it mixed with heavy resiny piney hop, some notes of caramel. overall something I wouldn’t kick out of the fridge for spilling crackers if a mini keg made its way in there.
