[1] Review by Sap from Tucson, AZ, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (8/5/2007 11:22:14 AM)
"A very pale straw color, pours with a dense white head. This one has a grassy aroma. The first taste is one of subdued sweetness (though this beer is quite dry). It finishes with a clean bitterness without much in the way of hop flavor. This beer is all about the bittering hop, it is very light and dry. A very nice refreshing summer beer."

[2] Review by oh6gdx from Vaasa, Finland who has tried this beer once. (7/3/2007 1:08:37 AM)
"Yellow colour, small white head. Aroma is big fruity aroma with some hints of wood and vanilla. Flavour is mainly hoppy along with some caramel. Quite watery IPA in my opinion. "

"Compared to other IPA's this is not a bad choice, but there are better. Pours a golden yellow with a thick lasting head. Decent enough carbonation level. The flavor is ok, but just not as intense as I would expect from an IPA."

[4] Review by Gromit from Port Orchard, WA, USA who has tried this beer (3/4/2006 12:23:50 PM)
"There's just nothing even "good" about this beer. Appearance: Think "Bud" with a better head. Much better, actually, the lace trailed down the sides of the glass beautifully. Sadly, nothing about this beer says "IPA" but the bottle claiming to be "a faithful reproduction of the famous 19th century pale ale." I guess I'd need to see the origonal. There's a chance I've had two bad bottles since both of them smelled and tasted a bit on the skunky side. But considering that nothing else about this beer was good, I'm thinking not. There's a bitterness to it, but even that it blah. This is sad considering I really like Grant's Deep Powder and Scottish beers. I *really* hope I just had bad samplings."

[5] Review by caddylac from OP, KS, USA who has tried this beer a couple times. (2/20/2006 6:14:02 PM)
"Pours a very yellow color with a thick foamy white head. The aroma is nice and hoppy. Looks like a wheat beer when poured. Very light hop flavor with an aftertaste that reminded me of as though somebody made me eat a nasty flower or something. Needs work."
