bb (2905), Martinez, California, USA Nov 29, 2006 Draft. Golden amber beer with an off-white head. Sweet summer fruit and citrus aroma. Summer fruit, grapefruit, piney hop flavor with some decent malt backing. Lingering fruity/piney hops. Medium bodied. SDbruboy (1832), San Diego, California, USA Oct 25, 2006 On draft at brewpub. Arrived in the glass a clear golden amber, with a creamy head and light lacing. Aroma dominated by citrus hops, grapefruit and pine with faint notes of toasty malts. Flavor is also hop-centric, again some light toasty malt sweetness, with massive grapefruit rind, spruce and lemon hops - a bit unbalanced for my tastes, but definitely a hop bomb. Light body and prickly / creamy carbonation.
