Sample at the Brew Pub in Bend. This was my favorite among all those sampled. Pours orange with typical white head. Traditional fruity, cascade style hops, and a decent bitter finish. True to the style. An easy drinker for IPA fans.

On tap at Bend Brewing’s Brew Pub on Mirror Pond in Bend, Oregon--Poured a hazy orange-amber body with a soft creamy whitish head. Gentle, piquant, floral hoppy nose with a slight biscuit malt flavor. Crisp, flowery, hoppy with a great bitter finish. Excellent beer!

1/1/08 At the BrewPub with Bikesandbeer after a day’s drive from Portland, Brewery 5 of the trip. Pours orange with a bright white ring. Nose is hoppy and light, taste is sweet and bright with a nice hoppy kick, pretty nice.

sampled @ brewpub - orange and slightly cloudy; nice hop aromas followed with a little bitter aftertaste; not too much else going on as it’s a pretty standard IPA

On Tap at Brepub pours out a nice amber topped with a off white head. A nice hop on this IPA. Some bitter hops and floral as well.
