Feb 13, 2009 Bottle. Thanks to Jabic. Pours a deep orange color, almost no head. Flavor has a nice soft malt characteristic to it, followed by a well balanced blend of hops. Pretty much every hop note that you could imagine is in here somewhere. Fizzy on the palate. Finish is dry and phenolic. Nicely done, I’m surprise this isn’t higher ABV by the way it drinks.

Feb 10, 2009 Poured a reddish orange with thin off-white head that lingered well and left okay lacing. Aroma was citrusy hops, and a touch of malt. Mouthfeel was full, dry and tingly, and the taste picked up the hoppy citrus of the nose. A decent, well rounded finish, primarily dry and bitter from the hops, yet with just a touch of malty sweetness.

Jan 21, 2009 This beer poured a nice orange/copper color with nice pillowy white head that stays around quite a while. Aroma is clearly dominated by the hops with a bit of biscuit briefly coming through. Flavor is an assault of hops. Not subtle in any way. Mouthfeel is hops oilyness, medium body. Not complex or great, but very drinkable.

Jan 19, 2009 Bottle on sale at Sam’s... only a few weeks away from the "Drink by" date. Golden orange clear pour with nice big off-white head. Some definite metallic notes starting to overshadow the hops, but they’re there. A bit of resin, but more bitter citrus, floral, and even soapy. Nice floral bitter finish.

Jan 18, 2009 12oz. Very nice, mild ipa. Not as strong or uniquely flavored as the Double Simcoe but quite nice. Bit spicy, robust itter and nice creamy citrus/malt.

Jan 18, 2009 This beer is decent. This beer has a nice translucent color to it. It also has a nice head sitting on top. This beer is aromatic, but it has that hop smell that I think smells like a mix of hops and soap. I don’t know which specific hop it is, but it is a hop that I don’t like. It is aromatic, which I appreciate, but as I said, there is this one hop I have a hard time liking. This beer is very thin, and I wish it had more of a body to it, but I think this is a noble effort. Nice hop profile. Overall, this beer is on the cusp of being a good beer. For some reason I cannot get into this beer as much as I would like.

Mini growler from Half-Time. Pours a lightly hazed medium dark amber with a medium sized white head which falls off quickly. Light hop aromas with a bit of malt. Slight sweetness on a medium body with fine carbonation leading into a big grapefruit finish. While not bad in any sense, I really wish there was a bit more on the nose and that the finish was a little longer lasting, and slower to develop. The beer sort of rushed by it seems.
