Jan 18, 2009 Appearance: Pours a dark gold with a big fluffy white head. It is very cloudy with visible rising bubbles. The fluffy head never really subsided, and added to the overall appearance.
Aroma: Caramel malt and orange zest right off the bat.
Taste: Grapefruit, pine, brown sugar and lemon. Ends with a bitter spicy hop note.
Mouthfeel: Juicy and astringent. Not really heavy or thick, but not watery by any means.
Overall: For an IPA not made on the west coast, this beer has a great level of citrus aroma and flavor, and has a nice level of malt to compliment it. I look forward to brewing my first extract batch of beer, based off of this recipe.

Jan 16, 2009 What an IPA aroma. Very citrusy. This is a nice beer. A good hop bite, a lot of flavor. A bit thin finish but mostly just fantastic.

Jan 12, 2009 12oz bottle. Pours an off-white head and has a deep honey colored body. Smells of honeyed fruit and hops. Tastes of apricots and pine. Big body that is slick. Bitter finish. Smooth beer.

Jan 11, 2009 12oz bottle, thanks argo0! Bright orange with an oily head that leaves some nice lace. Big citrus candy aroma: grapefruit, orange peel, and some slight mango for good measure. Pure hops, with a good supporting malt sweetness that doesn’t provide assertive character. Very citrusy flavor with lots of orange, light grapefruit, and a soft bitterness. Good balance, with a bitter, yet soft finish. Medium bodied with smooth carbonation. Very well done, though the hops are quite one-dimensional.
