iowaherkeye (1413), relocated to Santa Rosa f/Iowa, California, USA Oct 8, 2008 22oz "Bottled Aug 21, 08." Clear light caramel orange with a 1/2 finger off-white head, fair retention. Aroma of lemon and piny hops up front and some clean lightly sweet caramel malts. From the aroma it seemed like only aroma hops got used--not really bitter--but was pleasantly surprised with the bitternerness peaking around a 4. The flavor didn?t have as much caramel sweetness that I got from the aroma, either. Low to moderate carbonation with a medium body. A medicro IPA. SamGamgee (591), Santa Cruz, California, USA Oct 4, 2008 12oz bottle. Clear light amber with a lasting head. Good hoppy aroma, with grapefruit, herb, and sap notes. The flavor has a nice hop profile, with citrus leanings. Lean and dry malts. Pretty balanced, with no abrasive bitterness. Light body for an IPA, with smooth carbonation. Easy-drinking IPA, but pretty solid. Hawksfan17 (657), Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 20, 2008 This orange amber pour has a floral hops aroma. This brings out a nice bitter yet drinkable taste in the flavor. rthbass (26), Vancouver, Washington, USA Sep 13, 2008 Great all around. Nice floral and citrus hop flavor and aroma. Similar to a Bridgeport but still unique in itself. Pretty widely available. A solid beer. stchloe (197), Portland, Oregon, USA Sep 11, 2008 For Widmer Breweries a great IPA, full flavor and bitter. Nothing exciting, though Halo is supposed to be astounding. A great cheap drink.
