[2] Review by beercronic from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada who has tried this beer once. (10/16/2007 12:08:44 AM)
"Poured out a crazy ammount of off-white not-quite smooth head that has faded but is retained well. Some sticky, messy lacing. Nice orange colour with lots (too much) of fine sediment. The aroma is quite nice and refreshing but not unlike other IPA of this ilk. Lots of citrus (mainly grapefruit and lemon), pine (not sharp), caramel malts...well rounded indeed. Taste is pretty good but a touch weak as I was looking for something a bit more stiff. Still, there is no lack of citrus but the malts are too muted. Candylike qualities are ok and maybe to obvious. Nears medium bodied. Nice carbonation but not ultra smooth like its peers. Soft mouthfeel. Finishes nicely with some piney bitterness. A good drinking beer indeed."

"Yellowy to light brown body two inch fluffy cap with tons of carbonation, lots of roapy lacing is left behind with every sip. Beer would have done better except the color seems wonky. Brew has the normal in your face grape fruit hops but the malts seem different they seem wheaty and lighter than normal. Aroma is different so I like that but it’s not all that great. Taste has a very nice hop presence without being overly bitter. Sweet grape fruit hops are well balanced with richly flavored malts. The malts is slightly earthy and don’t have the same wheat quality they had in the aroma. After taste mildly bitter and had a smoke like quality. Diffently not the best IPA I’ve ever had but it will do, it’s not over top hoped making it very easy to drink and sometimes that’s what I want. "

[4] Review by Phil B from Gatineau, Canada who has tried this beer once. (10/5/2007 8:46:55 AM)
"Bottle courtesy of Piscator34: Poured a dirty hazy yellow color ale with a large foamy head with some good retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of medium citrus hops with some bitter notes is average for the style. Taste is also dominated by some weak note of citrus hops with a dry bitter finish. Body is quite full with limited malt presence and some good carbonation. "

[5] Review by RedHaze from Bellevue, NE, USA who has tried this beer once. (3/2/2007 4:55:23 PM)
"Pours a mildly hazy pale orange, with a thin white head that fades quickly to a spotty cap and ring. The lacing is actually a big thicker than I was expecting.
Smell; mostly citrus, with grapefruit and lemons. There's an underlying malt presence with a little bit of bread dough and caramel. Overall though, nothing really stand s out all that much in the aroma.
Taste; grapefruit is the primary flavor, but some lemon dose come through just a bit. Some bready, and caramel malts are present. If possible, the flavor is even more subdued than the aroma was, and that's not really such a good thing for an American IPA. Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied, and the drinkability actually takes a hit for me due to the lack of flavors. I don't think I would ever pick this one up again."
