Aug 29, 2008 Thanks to Dunk for this one. 22oz. Poured golden amber with a nice lacy white head. Aromas are very strong of hops, citrus, and pine. Smells like a awesome DIPA. Flavor is intense with sweet malts, piney hops, and nice well balanced mouth feel. An outstanding brew and just a wonderful DIPA.

Pours a bright hazy golden orange with a fluffy white one-finger head that lingers for a while and leaves impressive lacing. The aroma is massive and very sweet. It has an array of citrus hop aromas, grapefruits, oranges, tangerines, as well as sweet honey and caramel overtones. There is also some pine hops as well on top of a bready malt aroma in the background. The taste mirrors the aroma with a huge grapefruit sweetness up front with a strong malt backbone. The finish has a good bit of floral pine hop bitterness and lingers between sips. The mouthfeel is sticky with good carbonation and slightly dry in the finish. This is a great West Coast DIPA and I look forward to having more of these in the future. Highly recommended!

Aug 13, 2008 RBSG 2008, from the bottle at the brewery. Pours gold, very clear, with a smooth white head. Pine and sawdust in the hop nose, sort of resiny/earthy quality to it. Flavor showed a bit more citrus, hints of grapefruit come through in the finish. Crisp and refreshing double IPA.
