12 oz bottle pours clear orange with a two finger off white head. Aroma of citrusy hops. Flavor starts sweet then quickly becomes bitter. Nicely balanced IPA not overly bitter or overly sweet.

Bomber. Pours a crystal clear amber with one finger white head. Nose is citrus and floral hops. Palate is tangerine, grapefruit rind and caramel malt background, with a nice resin bite in the finish. Tastes like an IIPA - big hoppy taste. Medium mouth feel and nice lacing. Good stuff.

Tasted at Ballast Point brewery and homebrew shop in San Diego, CA--Light copper orange body with a wispy, swirly white head. Fruity and spicy hops profile in nose. Tangy, spicy, Centennial and Columbus hops. Clean, stinging, bitter finish. Great representation of WC/SD-style IPA.

Dark orange-golden with a huge, nice, creamy head. The aroma has notes of citrus, papaya and mango. The flavour has a light and pleasant sweetness, notes of citrus, oranges, caramel and a nice, light grassy bitterness. In no way extreme - but incredibly charming and nice, I really like this one.
