From Aug 2007
Purchased as part of a mixed 6Pack at Wilbur's Liquors in Ft Collins
Pours from 12oz bottle(best by Sept 2007) a clear medium gold and it has a small but solid head of foam that shrinks to some spotting in the middle and a ring around the edge of my glass.
The smell is hoppy with grapefruit and pine.
The taste is pretty darned smooth. The hop character doesn't go overboard but I get some good pine and floral hoppiness and the sweet malt that isn't so far in the background does a nice job when it comes to balance. The more I sip on it, the more balanced the flavours become and that's just fine by me. It's got a good mouthfeel to it and the finish ends up with that pine but I wouldn't describe it as being very bitter. I think this one would be a good one to go to when one isn't in the "hop head" mode. Nice stuff.

Clear golden color with a medium white head that dissipates steadily to an outer ring. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of citrus, hops and malt. Medium body with flavors of citrus, mildly spicy hops and malt. The finish is mildly bitter with a short fruity hops aftertaste. Decent overall.

Can @ home. Hazy, ruby orange appearance with a big tan head. Creamy, grapefruit/orange citrusy hoppy, a little, spicy aroma. Slightly toasty, caramel, a bit bready, a touch tangy, citrusy hoppy flavor. Not bad. I may pick up a sixer of this in the near future.

Can from Beers of Europe. Poured a hazy orange colour with a decent white head. Nose was big on caramel malts with some citrus and piney hop notes also. The flavour was similarly sweet and teetered on becoming cloying, just being rescued by the hop profile. Relatively shortlived bitterness. Ok but not the greatest IPA out there. Funky looking can though. Keep that 3rd eye blinking y’all.
