3.3 12 oz can. #102. Thanks Timo A! Hazy golden color with a small off-white head. Pineapple, citrus, mild bitterness and mild maltiness in the aroma. Grapefruit, resin, a bit harsh hoppiness, moderate bitterness and dry malt in the flavor.
3.6 355 ml can. Pours clear golden color with a large white head. Aroma is strong resinous, pine notes, pineapple and orange, decent amount of hops. Flavor is more hoppy, resinous at that, some malt bitterness, both sweet and citric fruits, pineapple and grapefruits. Mouthwatering, fruity, slightly oily hops. Quite good. 4515
3.8 Bomber pours a hazy gold with a small golden white head and great lacing. Aroma is quite grassy, light citrus. Flavor is primarily citrus and hops but is balanced just enough. Bitterness is initially mild but turns to medium on the aftertaste and lingers nicely. Very good.
3.4 Pours a golden ale with a nice white head. A calm smell of hops and not as robust as others. A smooth and above average IPA.

3.4 330ml can @ Både &. Clear, dark golden with a moderate sized off-white head. Moderate aroma of citric fruit, canned peach, orange marmalade and caramel malt. Flavor is sweet malt, caramel, some biscuit, citric fruit and average bitterness. Fine balanced body and decent aftertaste. A decent in the middle of the road IPA.
3.6 Bottle, at Både&. It’s a dark golden colored beer with a small, dense off-white head. Sugary sweetish pine cones and orange zest aroma with some pale malts in the back. Orange zest, pine cones, resins, bitterness and some pale malts and a bready hint. It’s full bodied, pleasantly carbonated and with a long hop dominated finish. Sure nice. 160227
3.4 33cl can at Sandar Haandverksbryggeri - Brygghuset, Sandefjord. Pours hazy golden with a modest, white head. Fruity and hoppy with with citrusy and herbal flavours and a nice bitter finish. Nice one!
4.1 12oz in shaker. Clearish deep gold with tall off-white foam. Pungent nose, evocative of rosemary and grapefruit. Mellow malty sweetness only goes a little way in standing up to the broad, pithy bitterness and pine tips flavor. Finish powers down gracefully with a long, satisfying, resiny tail.
3.7 12 oz can. Pours a deep golden honey with a medium cream colored head. Aroma of pale malt, biscuit dough, light pine and faint hops. Taste of light pine, faint grapefruit, and a balance of hops and pale malt.
3.3 From a bomber but no glass so hard to tell aroma, head or color. Tastes little unbalanced with more hop than malt but good taste. Don’t get much citrus just straight forward ipa.
4.4 Very good and hoppy for a good price! What a great hoppy nose, and label came off easy for reuse. I bought Super 1 out of this one.
3.4 On 33 cl can at Sandar Bryghus, Norway. Slightly hazy golden color- good foam. Medium aroma intensity; hoppy, fruits, malt , citrus . Medium body & complexity . Good bitterness & balances. Enjoyable
3.4 22FL OZ ($5.99) great lil IPA here. not too high in the ABV or the IBUs. easy going IPA that has a smooth character to it. worth trying.
4.1 Bottle. 7 SRM, dark orange, dark yellow hue. Rich biscuity malt, prune type caramel malt like a Crisp C77, floral, almost herbal, overall like an English IPA, reminiscent of a Peak Organic IPA. Wonderful perfumy, flower taste, with a resinous hop powder pollen after taste. Drinks more smooth than anticipated, with a heavy malt nose I was expecting more of an amber ale (like AV Boont) type malt body. Not too much sweetness, just enough to compliment potent bitterness. Finishes a bit dry, wanting more, CO2 is in check, no big bite but enough to wake up the senses. Great head retention, sticky legs. Great brew for an English IPA.
3.6 Bottle: Gold color with quickly dissipating white head. Unusual skunky aroma and green hops. However, the flavors were not like the skunk in the nose. Sturdy hop flavors with a great balance of hop flavor and bitterness.
3.7 Location: 12 oz can from Winooski Beverage, 7/10/15 Aroma: Has some pine and citrus/tropical hops, with a pretty strong toffee and bready malt backbone Appearance: It pours a clear golden-orange color with a smaller, cream colored head and average lace Flavor: The flavor is fairly strongly bitter, the strong, malty flavor isn’t particularly sweet Palate: The body is medium-plus, feels fuller than you’d expect from a 6.7% beer, finishes dry Overall Impression: Nice, well-made IPA here. Has kind of a classic West Coast IPA feel to it. I would call this one closer to good then great, but I still really enjoyed it.
3.7 Can. Grapefruit citrus hop aroma with mild notes of pine. Pours opaque golden colored with a thin white head with mediocre retention and lacing. Starts with a lot of grapefruit citrus flavors with a little bit pine resiny hops. Finishes very smooth with grapefruit citrus and acidity coating the palate. Nice IPA.
3.6 1st June 2015: 22oz bomber into a La Chouffe tulip three times. Misty golden/yellow body, the head a white blanket on each pour, good lacing on each tipping of the bottle. Hoppy and semi-bitter with a good body depth of flavour: grapefruit notes leading the citrus feel to the brews base. Really enjoyed this beer, thought it classy and full flavoured.
3.4 Growler from Jacksons. At first taste, was bowled over by citrus hops, however that quickly turned into a somewhat metallic, astringent finish. Medium golden body with foamy head. Aroma is grapefruit, malt, yeast. Taste hits up front with hops, and finishes dry and tinny. 10/28/16 Bottle from Whole Foods. Much smoother than original rating. Citrusy with soft head.Dry finish, mild bitterness. Not very bitter for an IPA.
3.8 Bottle. Pours a clear pale gold with a white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma has a nice earthy bitter citrus with some sweet grains, a bit of grass and hints of pine and onion. Flavor has earthy bitter citrus as well with pine, grain and a touch of onion underlying.
4.0 Poured from a bomber into a tumbler on 03.23.15. A: Orange rind, pine, grapefruit, and orange. A: 1 1/2 finger head with an easy pour. The head stays fluffy. See through orange body. T: Pine, grapefruit rind, and orange dominate. Oak (maybe nuttiness) and honey are subtle. P: Crisp and finishes clean. O: The first time that I tried this, the hops had died. The pine and grapefruit were much stronger in a fresh bottle from Safeway. This is a very nice IPA in the West Coast style.
3.4 Can from p1meatloaf. Thanks bro! Pours a hazy bright golden with a mangoish tint. Two fingers of sudsy sandy tan head. The nose leans more towards the herbal and earthy hop notes with some pine resin and a touch of oxidation. A light malt sweetness shows as well. Herbal and pine resin heavy in the flavor with bitter citrus rind and oxidized hops. Not sure on the age here. Medium light bodied with a firm bitterness and some citrus.
3.4 12 oz via can whilst disc golfing. Moderately bitter and mild grainy IPA. Crisp, dry and refreshing. Smooth and pretty easy to drink. Overall, a fairly average IPA.
