| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 16, 2007 On tap at the brewery. Pours a cloudy amber color with a thin white head. Aromas of citrus fruit and heavy on hops. Tastes of lemon and citrus with a nice sweet finish. Has a refreshing, crisp mouthfeel that leaves you wanting more! An excellent Willibrew.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 29, 2007 On tap at the brewpub. Dark amber with a white head. Fresh, green hop nose, pine and citrus, lots of hop action. Some bready, biscuity notes creep in after you grow accustomed to the hop assault. Rather dry. Tastes just like it smells - a numbingly bitter hop concert. Nice! scraff (1942), Baltimore, Maryland, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 25, 2007 Deep turbid amber, creamy white head. Pungent leafy hop nose that was filled with notes of pine, florals, cedar, and hints of grapefruit zest. Intense Southern California hop bitterness with fresh piney florals bursting forth. Slight hints of faint biscuity pale malt sit subdued under the hop blast. Not even close to balanced, but works very well none the less. Very Green Flash IPA-like in its nature. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, Sahara-dry finish. A can’t miss for your hop fix… Cletus (5055), Connecticut, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 24, 2006 Pours coppery with a white head. Smells of aromatic hops and some breaddt elements. Taste reminds me of a West Coast IPA with some of the piney notes. Decent maltiness behind the big hoppy flavor. argo0 (6907), Washington DC, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 26, 2005 Clear mahogany body with tan head. Aroma is medium sweet, orange/floral, some chocolate. Taste is medium sweet, orange/floral, some caramel, light chocolate. Watery medium body. Equivalent to a West Coast APA, but nice nonetheless. Cottrell (72), Connecticut, USA
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | May 26, 2005 I got the first pour, so it was a bit muddy, and very, very fresh. Had a great long lasting soapy head, left great lacing too. Strong aroma, pungent citric fruits, oranges, grapefruits, pine needle sweetness, and some underlying caramel sweetness. Flavor starts with some citric sweetness, light toffee, some breadiness, then a hop attack ensues, pine needles, orange rinds, grapefruits, and some grassiness come in at mid palate in full force, finishing with a sharp bitterness and a dry finish. Wonderful beer, very, very drinkable. Just can’t go wrong with a Willibrew IPA...

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 17, 2003 Has a clouded orange color with no carbonation and a grapefruit smell. Taste is very fruity/hopped and finishes with a great hop bitterness. Overall a very interesting IPA, not something I could drink regularly, but still good.
