May 7, 2009 Pours a cloudy golden-orange color. Medium head. Aroma is lemon pineapple with slight alcohol. Taste is definitely citrus with malt finishing. Good aftertaste. A nice dry hoppy IPA. Good.

May 5, 2009 Pours clear yellow with a small quickly diminishing off-white head. Nose is faint floral hops. Flavor is initial citrus hops segueing into a middle cookie maltiness and then switching back to a strong pine/floral hops backbone. Crisp palate, long lingering hops aftertaste. Good.

May 3, 2009 Updated: Jun 15, 2009Smells of lilac, lime peel, orange peel. Taste is on tilt toward heavy citrus, the most citrus that I’ve ever tasted in a regular IPA. The flavor overall is very smooth and without having to cope with an over the top bitter hop presence, this sucker is drinkable sumptin fierce. Palate is a crafty mix of medium bodied heft and careful light caronation, definately fills your mouth. I think what seperates this is the pronounced softness of the finish as compared to other IPAs, really supple and buttery especially at higher temps. I wouldn’t walk through glass for this but it is a great addition to the style and I’m glad to have it. The date on the case said March 10 2009 for bottling, I wonder how this would be super fresh, maybe even better. Thanks Bells. 2009 12oz.

May 3, 2009 Pours a deep orange. So much citrus aromatics and pine. Flavor is malty and hopped up. Excellent balance. I can drink this beer forever. A staple in my fridge.

May 1, 2009 overall a decent ipa. flowery hoppiness with citrus on the nose and a decent dose of hops in the flavour. Some grapefruit seems to come through in the flavour also. PAlate is decent. IOverall a good ipa although nothing to jump and down over in my opinion

May 1, 2009 This is a great IPA. Very drinkable with a nice combo of citrus and bitter hops. I could drink a ton of these. Great Flavor and Aroma. One of my favorite IPA’s so far

May 1, 2009 Fantastic beer. A wonderfully crafted, gold-orange pour with dense, white head and some lacing. Finishes dry, with the help of a grapefruit citrus hop profile.

Apr 30, 2009 Without a doubt my favorite IPA. A cloudy orange pour with a robust white head. Nose of grapefruit, hops. Taste a complex balance of hops & malt (with hops coming out on top). Never get tired of this one (which can be dangerous). Unfortunately, not available in NJ, but always worth the drive to PA.
