Nov 20, 2008 Tasted on tap at the brewpub 10/25/2008. This IPA pours a light orange gold color from the tap. Small sized white foamy head. The aroma is fruity and sweet with a touch of floral hops. A medium bodied IPA. The malts are fruity and sweet. The hops are mildly earthy and floral. Very low bitterness, and a touch too sweet for an IPA. Even for an English Style IPA, this one is a lacking hop bitterness. There is some hop bitterness at the finish. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.

Jul 27, 2008 I have to say this was pretty enjoyable, with some intriguing hop varietals that don’t necessarily clash, but you have the the citrus, you have the floral, and the fruit, all combining to make a very unique nose. The malt background is immdeiately apparent. Well balanced and well kept, with a creamy palate. Finishes clean and bitter, very well done.

Apr 27, 2008 Tablerock hophead ipa 7 2 15 4 7
3/7/08 on draught at the brewpub. Aroma is verysweet and seems almost caramel dominant at first, but then moves into a citrus tone. Appearance is hazy gold with a moderate maintained white head. Flavor is very sweet, but the hops come through more, with strong earthiness and citrus; the balance is exceptiopnal , even at warm temps. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a ver low carb texture and light creaminess. Overall, a very interesting IPA with almost no flavor integration but an excellent balance betweeen 3 otherwise clashing flavors.

Sep 29, 2007 On tap at TableRock BrewPub pours out a cloudy gold topped with a small white head. A very nice citrus aroma. A little sweet and a little citrus bitter on it as well. The nice malt goes well.

Starts wth fruity sweet malt character, apricots and pears. Fruity grassy hops finish. Light bitter after. Nice without being over the top.

Mar 12, 2007 Draft: Amber/orange pour with a modest white head and a little lacing. Nose is light citrus, florals, and malts. A wetter and softer mouthful than the Hopzilla. A decent hops presence, some malty sweetness is detectable.

Feb 13, 2006 On Tap at the brewpub
I cant help but compare this to the much better Hopzilla. Lacking in all areas in light of its more robust and flavorfull "brother"
Thin, light bodied, I was left wanting more. Except for the slight alcohol flavor that was left standing in the cold.
Dissapointing.

Aug 29, 2005 On Tap at Table Rock: For an IPA, it seemd low on hops. It was still pretty good though. Gold color with sticky lacing. Smooth going down.
