Mar 15, 2006 Poured a clear amber color with noticible particulates inside under a thick white head. The beer had a light hoppy IPA aroma with a moderate to high hoppy taste. I was told it was the hoppiest beer that the bar carried, but I was still disappointed, I wanted more hopps.

Mar 14, 2006 Pours with a golden-orange body topped by a medium thick head with a good amount of lacing. It’s slightly sweet and full of grapefruity hoppiness and a touch of pine. Medium bodied, smooth and sparkling.

Mar 13, 2006 bottle conditioned IPA, nice amber/orange color, hazy... very nice aroma of citrus and pine, malty sweet, hoppy enough to satisfy the biggest of hop heads... very nice

Mar 12, 2006 Smells skunked and slightly hoppy but more vinegar-y.. Uh oh. Upon pouring I see light amber foggy beer with a smallish head. Tastes better than it smells, cutting mild hops behind a candy like sweetnes,, the flavor is satisfying and jumps right of the palate, ultra mild aftertase that almost doesn’t exist. Overall a quality beer, but I think its current percentile of 89 is overrated.

Mar 10, 2006 This is a bottle-conditioned beer FYI (not mentioned in the description).
Pours a cloudy orange with an enduring thick off-white head. Pine and dried fruit aroma. Opens with sweet aromatic malts followed by moderate hops, malty nutty aftertaste. Medium body with oily smoothness. Restrained carbonation.
This is not a killer IPA (an American Pale Ale would be the more correct classification). Regardless, it is a really great beer with delightfully balanced flavor and smooth palate. One of my top beers to accompany a relaxing conversation.

Mar 7, 2006 Pours nice with a thick white head. Medium bitterness with a light malt flavor. Light bitter finish. Not as hoppy as I expected. But smooth overall.

Mar 7, 2006 Updated: Apr 20, 2006NIce color, hazey. Aroma of grapefruit and pine but the aroma seemed a little understated. Decent hop taste- pine, citrus and bread notes. Nice finish a bit of hop oil and velvety mouth feel.

Mar 6, 2006 Had really wanted to have this on tap in Portland, but the brewpub was under construction when we were there. Almost no head. Body was a bit hazy and orange. Fair amount of lacing. Aroma of pine, hops and light yeast. I had expected more hops. Short finish. Texture was dy with a fizzy carbonation, but why no head? Slight hoppiness in the taste, but it didn’t last. Not really inspired by this. Reminded more if an English IPA, rather than a West Coast version.
