Aug 27, 2008 Had this on tap at Cornucopia while I was still living in Eugene... Pours beautiful hue of caramel orange amber, delicious hop bounty of a nose, this beer bares citrus fruit in hop format, incredible and outrageously refreshing, one of the best beers that I had this summer hands down, can’t recommend this ale enough!

Aug 15, 2008 On tap @ Henry’s Tavern, Portland. Deep cloudy amber orange haze with a creamy frothy crown of malted goodness. Heavy citrus nose. Very smooth hoppy taste followed by a rounded balanced wave of bitterness and slight burnt caramel taste with some dough-like tones. Shows a great subtle complexity and style. Made me happy.

Aug 9, 2008 Had this on tap at The Muddy Rudder in Selwood, Or. Big citrus and pine resin hops nose. Taste is strong lingering piny hops that just seem to last in last in the back of the throat. There is enough biscuity malt to hold up to it though. The mouth feel is a little watery for the style IMO I like it more creamy. All in all this is a very nice offering.

Jul 30, 2008 On draft at the Double Mountain brewery in Hood River around the corner from Full Sail. Very tasty and hoppy double/imperial style IPA. Crisp and spicy. These brewers have certainly done something right!

Jul 29, 2008 An incredible IPA, bitter hops, a light body that still has a bite too it, and just plain good.
