blipp (809), Grand Island, New York, USA Jun 4, 2008 Bottle. Pours hazy gold with a fluffy white head. Hoppy aroma, floral, citric and a hint of pine. Medium body. Flavor is again citric, floral and pine, and has a very nice bitter finish. Very well balanced, never comes off as too hoppy or bitter. Very good.
Gurst (328), Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA Oct 7, 2008 Sweet citrus notes: lemon, orange, grapefruit. Some sugar cookie, toast, and flowers. Body is fairly full for an IPA. End is dry, with light alcohol aftertaste. CapnJazz (12), Boalsburg, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 6, 2008 12 oz. bottle and on tap. Pour is a clear amber orange with a medium head. Bursts of fresh hops and citrus! Nice malty backbone with enough sweetness to carry along the hop presence. Never overbearing or random tasting, very focused, simple, and nearly perfect. Freshness is a key here, but not as much as with some IPA. Just extremely drinkable and enjoyable. Uaru02 (14), Simpsonville, Kentucky, USA Oct 3, 2008 Great IPA! Very flavorful. Great hop taste without being too bitter. Slightly sweet to impart a full flavor. A great beer! Moggman (40), Columbus, Ohio, USA Oct 2, 2008 Bottle. Pours golden with white head. Aroma is citrus and hops. Flavor is not over hopped, finishes dry and light with balanced hop flavor. Beershine (1440), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Oct 2, 2008 Draught @ Cole’s. Clear golden with lots of lacing. Mellow hoppy aroma. Very leafy but not a lot of pine. Some citrus rind. Nice level of carbonation. Super dry and really mellow finish. Super smooth with an exceptionally delicious hop kiss. Really rindy. My kind of IPA.
