"Sly Fox Santiam IPA poured a reddish colored body with almost no head to speak of. The taste was hoppy with a blend of grapefruit taste. Interesting IPA, but not up to par with the others from Sly Fox."

[3] Review by E from Spring Mountain, PA, USA who has tried this beer once. (10/29/2005 5:46:05 PM)
"Poured an amber color with a medium sized, off white head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of earthy notes, citrus, and light piney hops as well. Taste of tangerine, other lighter skinned fruits, caramel malts, and finished with a medium bitterness."
