| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 1, 2009 Pours a clear copper color with a thin off white head. Aroma is some hops, a little grassy, kind of "green" smelling. Flavor is grassy, citrus, mostly lemon, some malt backbone but a weird metallic flavor. Not enough to be offensive but noticable. Decent fresh hop.

| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Dec 18, 2009 12oz bottle: Pours to a clear medium amber body with a small off-white head. Aroma is sweet apples, light malt, small amount of cinnamon-like spice (but this is very mild), some light berry-type scent, but is definitely distinctly lacking hops in the nose. Taste is sweet light malt, quickly followed by some nice ripe grapefruit/citrus hops bitterness on the tongue, a bit of cereal flavor. As it warms the hops flavors come out much more, suggesting a bit of noble hops (if these are indeed grown locally). Finish is bitter spicy/earthy hops. Medium bodied, medium carbonated, and slightly too sweet for an IPA. yespr (12320), Copenhagen O, Denmark

A floral hop aroma with some caramel, grapefruits, and a touch of lemon. Medium-bodied. Light caramel flavors upfront taste-wise. Grapefruitiness follows. Grainy. Just a bit biscuity and dry at the end. Pretty boring.
