Have to say this is definitely one of my favorite beers over the past 2-3 months. Bottle pour into Stella glass. Hazy golden with substantial off-white head. Excellent lacing remaining throughout. Aroma - wonderful citrus, Cascade hops, grassy notes. Excellent taste and IMO a very well-balanced offering of an APA. Sophisticated yet very drinkable and refreshing. Not too dry or bitter, just right for me. Top notch - Cheers!

pours a little hazy golden with a 3 finger white head - leaves notches of lacing all down the galss- smells like every other anchor beer very macro - taste is so much better then the smell but all anchor beers taste alike with pear flavor up front - overall solid a apa with great drinkability

golden orange in color and hazy with a decent sized off-white head. Aroma is of grass, hops and malt. Taste is the same and is very well balanced.

On tap at some overpriced trendy restaurant in San Fran. Hazy golden pour with a small white head and some solid lacing. Unappetizing grass aroma and taste with a mild palate and small hop bite at the end. This one really didn’t do it for me.

12oz. Pours cloudy gold/orange. Finger of white head, nice lingering white lacing. Aroma is strange... the only thing I can think of to describe it is "baby diaper"; and not a clean one...Flavor is a bit weak for an IPA- lots of grass and flowers. Not much of a lingering taste. I much prefer Anchor Steam.

nice copper pour with a big fluffy head. Strong grassy notes and just a hint of hops, lots of grass in the flavor and a hop biye at the end. This has awesome lacing on the glass and is silky smooth on the palate. nice bitter finish and very drinkable.

Some caramel and mild pine aroma. Hazy light apple juice color with some action and sediment suspension. Tea flavor with a hint of caramel and a lemon/lime hop taste. Light to medium bodied, some resin feel, and a crisp carbonation. The resin feel or the crisp carbonation may be off.

12 oz bottle from Oliver T’s...Pours out a cloudy unfiltered gold/orange color. Low amount of head. Aroma is a wonderful blend of floral hops and clean sweet malts. Flavor is very well balanced, with a fair amount of grapefruity Cascade bitters and pale malts. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Overall, this is a simple yet very refreshing beer, and would be great in summer.
