May 11, 2006 Pours a clear bronze with a thin, nicely-lacing white head. Aroma is lightly caramel malty sweet with some fresh piney, citrusy hops. Body starts mildly sweet with some crisp, lightly bitter grapefruity hop flavor and a touch of grainy malt. Finishes bittersweet and lightly sticky. Nicely balanced and very drinkable IPA. Thanks to wohlfs for the bottle!

Aug 13, 2008 Courtesy of douglas88. Pours gold/copper with a white head. Smells of citrus, grass, hay, caramel. Tastes lightly bitter and peppery with lots of earthy character and a citrussy finish. Some resin also present.

Nov 15, 2006 Clear golden honey appearance with a decent film of a white head with some sticky lacing. Crisp and peppery on the tongue, spicy and lively, but not really the right IPA for me, lacking juiciness, lacking that dank grassy and juicy character that I really like. Still, not a terrible IPA, but there’s some bland metallic notes that are pretty annoying. Finishes fairly bland and empty. Starts well, doesn’t end well.

May 2, 2006 Draught at Capone’s Pub in Coeur D’Alene, ID
Golden color, decent head and lacing. The nose is crispy with cascades and centennial like hops with just a bit of hops. Clean and hoppy like the W05 or a lighter version of the Halo. A bit lacking in body and a pronounced hop bouquet nose, but the finish is pretty solid. I’d drink this again.

Dec 17, 2006 Aroma of pine and citrus hop. Decent amber color with a substantial white head that laces a bit. Starts with smooth piney hop. Malt isn’t in it. Very firm mouthfeel. The finish is lightly pine, with some grapefruit popping up. It’s not harsh like some IPAs. Perhaps for that reason it is being underrated.

Aroma of sour citrus with some orange peel, and light caramel malt. Taste is medium bodied, well carbonated with flavors of roasted caramel malt, some grapefruit zest and some mellon character. (this is different) Finish is slightly sweet with an orange zest aftertaste.
