| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 28, 2007 Much better than expected. Not amazing; but I would drink again. A smooth, almost sweet taste. Very drinkable by itself or with food. blankboy (3260), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Dec 24, 2007 Bottle. Pours a clear golden-orange, quite bubbly, with an average size foamy white head. Aroma of grain, mild hops, caramel malt and a touch of alcohol. Flavour of light hops, caramel malt, grain and alcohol. I really shouldn’t taste the alcohol like this, it’s only 5.9%, maybe it isn’t alcohol, maybe it’s something else? Slightly harsh finish. Average bodied. Just alright, I don’t think I’d get it again.

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Dec 23, 2007 Hazy amber, moderate head, decent lacing and retention. Aroma is floral, wood, caramel, more malt dominated. Medium bodied, strange mouthfeel. Watery and sweet with a bitter finish. Not a great IPA. mrant (330), New York, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 5/5 | 13/20 | Dec 19, 2007 Smells strongly of floral hops, citrus bite. Pours a nice clear copper with a fairly big white pillowy head. Taste is very dry and bitter with an odd aftertaste. Can’t quite place it, maybe the alcohol presence. A tasty IPA, but nothing particularly special. Lowe1983 (1029), Fairborn, Ohio, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 15, 2007 Pours an amber color with an off-white head. Aroma is pretty sweet for an ipa with caramel malts, fruits, and a little citrus hops. Flavor is mostly fruits and caramel malts up front with a slightly bitter finish from the citrus hops. Too sweet for an ipa and not really that good. RSRIZZO (1369), Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA
| 1.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 1/10 | 1/5 | 2/20 | Dec 2, 2007 Had this beer on 9/14/1999. Color is a hazy gold . Aroma is malty with slight hop scent. Taste is Negative Flavor. BAD. This shit has no head and low carbonation. This beer has no flavor and a negative finish. Reminds me of Alka-Seltzer. Overall I feel its just a bad beer and a horrible IPA. Bockyhorsey (2556), Mesa, Arizona, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 2, 2007 12oz bottle coutesy of eaglefan538. Pine aroma but also some aroma like roast or coffee grounds. Copper body with decent head. Flavor had a pine resin along with some pepper. Bitter and somewhat spicey on the palate. This was one of those complex beers for me. Thanks Brian. theisti (1693), Leawood, Kansas, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 25, 2007 12 oz. bottle from mj. Pour is a slightly cloudy amber with a 1 inch somewhat off white head. Aroma is initially sweet biscuit malt with some lemony citrus hops. Taste mirrors the nose, and is a nice balance between the slightly sweet malt and citrusy hops. Finish reveals a touch of grapefruit peel, and was the least pleasant part of the beer. Overall, a nice sessionable IPA. Thanks Mike!
