| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 2, 2008 On tap at the brewery. I was really into this brew. I think the ABV was around 6.5? Great piny nose with some citrus. Went down easy like every lager does. JorisPPattyn (5192), Antwerpen, Belgium
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 24, 2008 Draught. ??My notes, taken from the blackboard, talk about Fathom IPA?? Good yellow head, leaving some lace: pale orangey beer. Very grapey, dry hops, bit salty/oystershell (high DMS?), fruity end. Dry hops, less bitter than expected, orange marmalade and a pinch of quinine. Medium bodied, slick, some alcohol ’t would seem. Good, if unspectacular. If it is really a lager, then it would be spectacular indeeed. Odeed (1679), Bakersfield, California, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 2, 2008 On draft at Obriens; I thoght this was an IPA rather than an ESL; to me it seemed a lot more IPAish. Nose was lightly garssy hops with a little citrus accent; copper with a small off-white head; flavor had some caramel malt to balance out the hop bitterness; finish was lighly bitter. I would have liked some fruitiness rather than so much hoppiness if it is an ESL. But good anyway! papajohn (1055), San Diego (Mira Mesa), California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Mar 27, 2008 Updated: Mar 28, 2008On tap@the new Scripps Ranch Brewery: Golden amber color with a medium white head. Aroma is lemony citrus. Flavor starts light sweet citrus (grapefruit, lemon and orange) followed by a medium citrus bitterness and a medium dry, lightly grassy finish. Medium body is tangy with lively carbonation. Lager my ass, this is a damn good IPA (made with lager yeast I guess). doubleo (1121), San Diego, California, USA

Smells light and fruity hoppy like a lighter single IPA with more of a malty backbone.The taste is super fruity hoppy, sweet citrus, with a lingering malt profile.

Nice hop aroma with no paper at all which surprised me. Hops run rough shod over the malt. Has a very good bitter finish. Solid medium bodied palate. Very solid offering. jcwattsrugger (5573), Florida and, New Jersey, USA
