| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 22, 2008 Medium amber to orange body with some floaters. The head is dense and lightly yellowish. Nice hoppy aroma with some grapefruit and pine resin. There is also a little bit of cat litter box. The taste has some strong burnt bread crust with bitter grapefruit rind. There is a lightly salty finish. Hmm, this one hits me in a strange way, I really like Tyranena and their past IPA’s, but this is not working for me. Too much astringent type bitterness. axilla (962), New Providence, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 21, 2008 Courtesy of Capt Cougar. Poured an amber/orange body with a sticky white head. The aroma is earthy and grassy hops with a touch of carmel. Flavors are resiny and fruity hops with a decent malt backbone and the same patchouli aftertast that I get from the Hop Whore, Pretty good. eaglefan538 (2399), Wilmington, Delaware, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 19, 2008 Bottle from CaptainCougar, full orangey (w/ brown/red aspects) colored pour, nice off-white head, good retention. The aroma was orangey, caramel, brown sugar, resinous notes. The flavor followed suit, pulling up just short of tea-baggy, some floral-earthy-grassy aspects also appearing in there. The mouthfeel was fairly hearty and carbonated. A decent brew, but not nearly as interesting or high quality as some of the BGW concoctions, and a little light on the hop bitterness. Thank you, Tom, this rounded out a fun little round of tasting. doubleo (1121), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 16, 2008 12oz bonus from Puddintane. Thanks! Pours dark orange with a moderate white head that leaves pretty good lace down the glass. Smells of earthy hops and a bit of grass. Mostly earth though. Tastes hoppy but with alot of malt in there as well. Almost like a very hoppy amber ale, I was expecting a little bit more aggressive IPA here. Medium body, nice carbonation. Good drinker but not a hop bomb. wetherel (1641), Encinitas, California, USA
