Commercial Description:
Brewed with 8 different hops and dry hopped with whole cone cascades. Its more powerful than our Islander IPA and even the most intelligent have become "idiot" after a few pints of this super hopped up beer!

Good light hop aroma, nice head, though a little pale in color. This has a good hop bite but isn’t that bitter. Crisp and relatively easy to drink, I think I may like this one Coronado beer I had in the bottle better than all I had on tap at the brewery last weekend.

Growler courtesy of Naven. Pure, West Coast hoppiness. Awesome flavor of piney, flowery, resiny, spicey hops. Beautiful pour w/ great lacing. Thanks Dave.

Bomber. Nice pour with a thick, tight, white head. Flavor is over ripe blood oranges, resin & pineapple. This is the real deal. Spicy hops are blended perfectly with the sweet malts. A great choice making this "SD IPA" a cozy 8%. I love this stuff.

22oz bottle acquired in trade with bu11zeye (thanks!). This one’s been on my wishlist for a little while. Poured a medium and cloudy amber color with a huge sized off white head. Lots of lacing left on the glass. Aromas of pine. grapefruit, melons, caramel, and pineapples. Tastes of pine, caramel, pineapples, and grapefruits. Fruity. Nicely balanced and very enjoyable - I could drink this one every day!

Bottle from Dunk, thanks! Cloudy apricot color with medium fluffy head. Aroma of straight fruity hops. Mango/apricot mainly. The taste was the same with light malt and good sweetness. This shit was really good. I need some more.
