| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 9, 2006 A slightly hazed yellow pour. An aroma of hops and malt. A tad mor malty than hoppy. A slightly thin palate not a bad beer. Just a little weak for the syle but very drinkable. boFNjackson (1269), Portland, Oregon, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 7, 2006 mmmm... pretty good. Tap, golden color with thin white head. Hoppy aroma with maybe some other spices. Creamy palate. Taste of hops and other earhy flavors like citrus, grain and malts and sweetness. Great IPA Tybalt (56), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 6, 2006 A decent IPA. Has that distinct hoppy flavor that characterizes all other IPAs - nothing less, nothing more. If anything, it may be a bit smoother than a lot of IPAs out there. Because of that, I wish I would have tried this one before I really started liking IPAs and maybe I would’ve started drinking them sooner. Now, however, I’ve had plenty of other IPAs that I’d rather have on a regular basis...but if you’re new to IPAs, give this one a shot. Shag (1923), Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 5, 2006 A yellow appearance with a lemon and perfume aroma. Some pine notes show throughout the beer. I taste some grapefruit, lemons, and oranges. A nice bitter finish. A good IPA. duffman462 (160), Gainesville, Florida, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 23, 2006 A good IPA, but certainly nothing special. Pours a golden color, with an aroma of hops. Flavor is mostly hops, although by no means the hoppiest IPA out there. Malt is mostly subdued, so the finish is mostly lingering hops. A good beer, but not memorable. ratman197 (3189), Arvada, Colorado, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 10, 2006 On tap poured a hazy golden amber with a diminishing off white head. Aromas of carmel and light citrus. Palate was light bodied. Flavors of carmel and light generic citrus with a bitter finish. A boring one dimensional IPA. beerinmarch (2781), Alabama, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Sep 26, 2006 From the bottle. I’m not the biggest fan of this beer, tastes very unbalanced, and not even in that overhopped NW kinda way. Tastes like they just used way to many bittering hops, just massive bitterness instead of massive flavor hoppiness. Very crisp and sharp bittering that kinda makes me sick of this brew after half the bottle. Aubrey (2774), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 21, 2006 Light golden-orange with a frothy head. Inviting nose of cake and hops. Body was lightish and steely, with a lively carbonation. Malt flavors were nice, with a decent level of sweetness. Hops were sharp and citrusy, and had a nice "green" quality. Some pine cones, too. Bitterness was a little bold, especially in the aftertaste. Overall, perhaps it was lacking a little depth, but it was a solid IPA.
