Dec 2, 2009 On draft at Mother’s Pub in Gainesville, FL. Probably the easiest to find, reasonably priced, and best tasting beer I can think of. Pours orange with lots of lacing. Citrus, floral, herbs, and hoppiness. Better on draft IMO.

Dec 1, 2009 Bottle from The Party Source. I’ve seen this so often, I’ve been putting it off for other things that have been harder to find, and now find myself finally trying it. No disappointment here. Pours a nice orange-cold color with a small off-white head. Nice aroma of citrus fruits- especially orange, but grapefruit and lemon, too- floral hops, malt, and just a hint of caramel. The flavor is similar, and just as good, with more of the caramel sweetness present to smooth it out. Light bodied, and a nice blend of hop bitterness and sweetness from citrus and caramel. Medium to high carbonation. Bitter, toasty, and sweet on the finish. Awesome year-round beer.

Nov 30, 2009 bottled. Rich orange colored ale w/ a bold hop nose. Sweetened hop acids in every sip. Citric. Taste is spot on. A favorite & a hero to lesser IPA’s.

Nov 28, 2009 slightly hazy, dark golden in color, nice white head with lots of lacing,
med-light carbonation. Flavors are mostly of floral grapefruity hops that are fairly sharp but not over the top. mouthfeel is moderate to full. Somehow this beer also has a fair crisp quality to it that is lighter than most other strong hopped beers. (note that Im not an IPA kinda guy) Overall I like this, its probobly the best IPA Ive had, I would drink it again, but not buy it.

Nov 25, 2009 Batch 9396. Pours amber orange, translucent body, fluffy white head. Grassy aroma of pine hops, orange juice, and grapefruit. Ooh, that’s lovely! Smooth blend of pine hops, perfume, and lemon. Quite smooth, minimal carbonation and a buttery feel that’s a perfect complement to the flavor profile. Only a subtle rush of bitter hoppiness. One of the finer IPA’s I’ve experienced. This was my first venture beyond Bell’s stouts, and I’m definitely impressed.
