Feb 19, 2009 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.

Feb 18, 2009 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.

Feb 16, 2009 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.

Feb 16, 2009 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.

Feb 15, 2009 Bottle. Multiple tastings. (Review of past tastings from memory) I am a big fan of Anchor Steam so naturally I have tried my share of these as well. I do not remember liking them any better than the Steam but I see these are getting more love in the ratings so I may need to retaste.

Feb 15, 2009 Hoppy aroma with toasted malt hints. Hops are overwhelming which is good if your a Hophead like me.

Feb 15, 2009 Had in a bottle from Bottlescrew Bills, Calgary, Alberta. Pour of golden yellow and tight white head. Aroma of a good beer. Taste of earthiness and fresh hops. A really good beer. Would much rather drink this than Anchor Steam.

Feb 14, 2009 Amazingly, this is like a non-bitter Ipa. Great hop flavor with none of the bite, I like that. Some good maltiness to it, but the flower flavor and smell tops it. Smooth and light, great for chugging.
