ford9719 (369), Vilseck, Germany Apr 24, 2007 Bottle. Poured a hazy yellow color. Aroma is of some grapefruit and hops. Taste is full body with a nice fresh hop finish. Duster72 (117), Indianapolis, Indiana, USA Apr 16, 2007 Pours a cloudy orange with a one finger head that leaves minimal lacing. Aroma is pine and citrus hops. Taste is primarily piney hops but there is enough grapefruit there to keep it refreshing and give a little pleasant sweetness. Not as resiny as some other piney IPAs. Mouthfeel is nice, not too clingy. Very drinkable IPA. Not my favorte, but very good. graham515 (420), Houston, Texas, USA Apr 11, 2007 A nice deep gold with little to no head at all. The aroma is really the best part of this beer. Very fruity, some citrus as well as plum-like features to complement the heavy hopping. Unfortunately, the bitterness is a bit to abbrasive on this one (Maybe I’ve gotten spoiled to Dogfish’s smoothness). It really not a bad beer tho. dyetube (397), Dallas, Texas, USA Apr 1, 2007 I gotta agree with the previous poster.. This beer is kinda flat for an IPA, but it is way better than the macros! It pours a medium amber with a small white head and has that characteristic hoppy dryness to it. I think it needs to be a little sweeter and rounded out. Cheers! ChazMania (408), Pasadena, California, USA Mar 29, 2007 Bottled. Poured nice, had a full creamy head. Flavor is more flat and bland than Im used to with IPA’s. I guess I like the big Hops, this is just a basic one, better than macros but not very unique in style character or flavor. Nalu (32), Washington, USA Mar 23, 2007 Updated: Oct 13, 2007Clear orange, light lace. Moderate carbonation, excellent body and mouth feel. Very varied taste over the course of a swallow - grapefruit, orange and resinous hops without every overpowering the malt. Finish is nicely sweet and almost oatmeal with the hops overlay. A great IPA truegen (164), Puyallup, Washington, USA Mar 23, 2007 12 oz. bottle. Spun gold color, with a good solid head. Decent lacing. A nice, lighter side IPA. Hops not overpowering, but tasty. TChrome (1298), Bedford, Texas, USA Mar 3, 2007 Beer pours clear golden color with a retained egg white head and heavy lacing. Beer is seriously hoppy in aroma with heavy citrus, especially grapefruit. Essentially one dimensionally hoppy, but hey this is an IPA. Flavor is likewise citrus hop juice. I really like this.
