Feb 27, 2009 On tap at Papago. Pours a nice straw color with a trim whte head and steady carbonation. Smells and tastes primarily of dried apricot and bitter hops. Sweet and crisp with a note of flour on the mid-palate. Highly drinkable.

Feb 9, 2009 A- Pours a clear orange/amber hue with a BIG creamy, white head that is mostly sustaining, excellent lacing throughout, tiny bubbles
S- Nose is a mix of pine resin, earthiness, citrus, and some sweet malts
T- Nice west coast IPA, initial taste is mostly dry bitter hops followed by some very faint citrus and sweet malts, finish is brief and acidic
M- Medium-bodied, coats the tongue, carbonation feels a tad high
D- Hmmm, a very interesting take on IPA style whose flavor is dominated by hops and is slightly unbalanced, this isn’t too detrimental but keeps this choice out of the top tier for West Coast IPAs, fairly drinkable at 7%abv due to a well-masked alcohol presence

Jan 17, 2009 pours a very mild amber orange. smells of citrus hops.. initial hit to the palate is that of a centennial hops that dont overstay their welcome.crisp, to the point and medium bodied for an IPA, but very solid

Jan 15, 2009 Hazy orange with a dense yellowish head. Very potent citrus oil and resin aroma. Chewy malts balance the big fruity bitterness of the generous hops. Very nice, but not a standout among its California peers (a tough crowd in which to be judged!).
