[1] Review by Clash from Chattanooga, TN, USA who has tried this beer once. (8/26/2008 10:14:11 PM)
"This poured a copper color with a moderate off white head. A faint caramel and citrus aroma. The flavor is rather malty for an IPA with some bready notes and caramel. It also contains some lemons and grapefruit. This one is more sour than it is bitter. A slight bitter finish. This seems to be more in the british mold for an IPA. Overall this was a pretty good beer but not a world class IPA. "

[2] Review by beerguy101 from Newark, CA, USA who has tried this beer once. (4/23/2008 11:49:02 PM)
"This IPA pours an orange gold color from a 12oz bottle. Medium to large sized white foamy head, with long lasting lacing. The aroma is caramel malts and sweet, with a touch of floral hops. A medium bodied IPA. The malts are fruity and very sweet. The hops are earthy and floral. This one is more of an English style IPA, more malt than hops. The hops are more in the background and could be a little bolder. Nice balance. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is crisp and clean. Aftertaste is slightly bitter."

[4] Review by tjhaefner from Centreville, VA, USA who has tried this beer once. (8/3/2006 5:12:25 PM)
"Ok, I was hoping for much more in this beer than it delivered.... No hope nose in the aroma. Well, that shows me no late hop addition, but that's the brewer's choice. The flavor proved to be not too complex and not that well balanced. More acidic than I'd like. Yes, falls into the IPA style, but not award winning. I'll finish this 6-pack, but probably won't get another."

[5] Review by ante from Stockholm, Sweden who has tried this beer many times. (6/8/2006 1:11:26 PM)
"Nice ruby-brown color with decent white head. aroma of dark sweet malt and some flowery hops. Taste: Starts sweet and malty (caramel, dried apricot). I was expecting more hops. Dry, nutty and bready finish. Not an IPA but a quite nice ESB?"
