Clear, very light, amber, almost yellow color. Prominent head with adequate lacing. Nose is decidedly hoppy, nice balance of citrus and pine. Palate is easy and inocuous, not too heavy, not too light. Lovely, soft texture, Super easy-drinking IPA, none of the bite or tang that define so many. Tidge of sweet, nice!

Dec 29, 2009 Pours golden/copper with small white head. Nose is floral, citrus, pine, and grapefruit. Taste is similar with more piney hops than sweet malt. Crisp and refreshing yet somewhat sweet with oily mouthfeel. Great ipa.

Dec 29, 2009 Starts with a very enticing floral hop aroma. It’s a full on sticky hop beer. Not much sweetness at all, but abundant in piney hop flavor that finishes long and dry. If you like hoppy bitterness and not much else, this is for you.

Dec 29, 2009 Kinda disappointing. Pours a murky yellow orange with a thin white head and lacing. Aroma is lemon, citrus and pine hops. Flavor is bitter and palate is thin, metallic, astringent which makes this beer not so great but alright.

Dec 23, 2009 On tap at the Davis Graduate
Appearance: Golden yellow with a nice amount of white head

Very good IPA. A crisp and clean beer that is well balanced for the amount of hops.

Dec 22, 2009 12 oz bottle served in a clear pint glass. Pour was dull, hazy gold with very little white head. Nose was citrus, hops, caramel, yeast, and light pine. Taste up front is malt, yeast, and caramel. This is followed by an instant rush of citrus, hops and a bitter flowery bouquet of a finish. This is a very good brew that that excels in every area.

Dec 21, 2009 I picked up this one in Asheville, NC at Bruisin’ Ales.
Pours a hazy/yellow with a good head retention. Smells a little sweet, but like a citrus/hoppy sweetness. The taste of this beer is on spot! This is my kind of IPA, it is full of hop flavors without tons of bitterness. This makes me like this beer. As for Mouthfeel and Drinkability, this is one to drink at a Happy Hour!
Great IPA. I am going to be in N.California in about six months, I will visit this brewery.

Dec 21, 2009 Great beer! Wonderful hop finish. It has the whole grapefruit thing going on. If you can find it on tap it is worth the trip to taste it. I was able to find it in Cincinnati at a pub around the university. Living in Southeast Indiana doesn’t give you a whole lot to pick from. You California people have got it made! A brewpub on every corner.
