Well Balanced example of the IPA style, Cascade hops provided a citrusy flowery aroma and flavor along with malty overtones.

"Poured a nice amber color with good head and lacing was strong as well. Aroma was a blast of citrus some maltyness as well. Flavor was pine/citrus hops with a great balance of malts in there. Not very complex but still very good."

"Normally, I am not a big fan of many IPAs. However, this one was quite good. The taste was slightly fruity with a hint of hops and not at all bitter as some IPA beers can be....I really enjoyed it. The aroma was hoppy and pleasant and the beer poured a nice sandy-orange color with a good sized head."

"A light amber beer with a thin lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet hoppy though with a hint of acidity - a light aroma for an IPA. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of fruit and caramel, as well as a slight acidic note."

[4] Review by Singlemalter from Greenfield, WI, USA who has tried this beer many times. (2/4/2007 11:48:19 PM)
"This is a fabulous beer! I just love this one. Watch out, it's near explosive when you open it.... don't pop the top and set it down on some valuable manuscripts and look away... when you turn back, you'll find it's erupted out the bottle and soaked your stuff! It has a frothy, foamy, lasting head that laces right down to the last swallow. Dark copper, hazy body. Hops hit you on the first sip, and stay with you throughout. I'm down to only 3 remaining, and I dunno what'll happen when theyre gone!"

[5] Review by doulos31 from Middletown, DE, USA who has tried this beer once. (12/2/2006 12:51:16 AM)
"Wow...I really liked this! Copper colored pour with two finger head. Aroma was caramel and floral hops. Flavor was sweet and malty with caramel and a nice floral hop bitterness with citrus undertones. Super smooth mouthfeel, almost tasted like on draft. Not overly bitter, but well balanced. I was really into this!"
