Aug 5, 2009 Tried a 12oz bottle into a pint glass while visiting Florida. More aromatic than a pale ale but not as bitter or flavorful as an IPA.

Aug 3, 2009 Bottle from Chevy Chase Wine & Liquors in DC. Slightly hazy amber color with a white head and good lacing. Aroma mostly piney, earthy hops with a little bit of malt. Flavor dominated by hops, very earthy and piney, with caramel malt and a hint of citrus. Palate medium with some hop stickiness. Pretty good and well balanced IPA overall.

Jul 11, 2009 2009 Bottle - Thanks ygtbsm94! - Pours lt amber with a large lt tan head...aorma is subtle hop florals, light pine and some dark malt...flavour is suprisingly malty up front with some pine bitterness that comes in mid palate, leaving a lingering resinous bitterness...good carbonation and nice lacing...not too much depth, but an easy drinking IPA...

Jul 8, 2009 Bottled. Poured clear medium orange with an easily-resuscitated ap of white head. The aroma picked up juicy floral, citrus, and some resiny darker hoppage over a sweet caramel base.. only moderately assertive and quite well-balanced. The flavor was along the same lines.. sweet caramel supporting resiny pine, grapefruit, and spicy floral bitterness, which really built all the way through the aftertaste.. pleasant sweet and spicy play on the finish. Medium-bodied with rolling carbonation that was just decently balanced against the bitter edges.. overall hoppage was less than expected.. refreshing and somewhat simple IPA.

Jul 3, 2009 12 oz. bottle. Pours slightly hazy orange amber with a modest white head. Aroma of sweet malts and lots of spicy, citrusy hops. Flavor is balanced but on the dry side; with a good malt backbone and tart citrus hops but surprisingly not overly hopped. Medium bodied, with moderate prickly carbonation. Solid IPA, but not particularly noteworthy.

Jul 2, 2009 Draft. Poured a clear amber color with an off-white head. Nose is dominated by green hops, some spice notes are also present. Medium bodied with great carbonation. This one really surprised me, I wasn’t expecting it to be so hoppy, I love it. Unbalanced, unrefined and perfect for hop heads like myself. Dry hoppy finish. Great beer I’ll have to try it in a bottle.
