Commercial Description:
This big, glowing, powerful IPA is packed with assertive Northwest hops that are floral, citrusy and resinous. A healthy dose of Munich malt helps to provide backbone and balance against the hoppy attack. The result? Explosive! Brewed with Gambrinus Organic Pilsner and Munich Malt, Centennial and Cascade hops. 7.0% ABV, 75 BU

On-Tap @ Bailey’s Taproom poured into Shaker glass. Pours a clear medium orange and has a strong glowing quality with a slight off-white head that dissolves quickly into a wispy layer atop the glass. The aroma is citrus hop, grapefruit rind, and just overall resinous, sticky hops. The flavor is grapefruit, citrus forward with some toasted bread crust with a sweet bitter, slightly dry finish. Its light-medium bodied with mild carbonation. Highly sessionable overall and to me has become the quintessential PNW IPA.

Very pilsnery nose. Unique for an ipa, not too much too my liking. Grass and light citrus and a shit ton of bread. Golden pour, no head but nice lace. The flavor is dry and bready, floral, grassy, and a hint of citrus. Light lingering bread, grass, and floral hops. Really bizarre ipa. Drinks nicely however.

Pint at Dbl Mtn - Aroma is doughy, sweet hops and caramel malts. Flavor is full of chewy floral hops with enough malts to balance it nicely. Palate is tart. Very nice IPA.

On tap at Double Mountain Hood River. Pours out a cloudy gold topped with a cream white head. Aroma of citrus and floral hops rush to my taste buds. The taste was more of the double hop attack. Bitterness on the front and end. A good strong hopped IPA.

Tap at Boonville Beer Fest. A good IPA but not a standout. Orangish amber color with a white head. Floral hop aroma with some sweet malt. Flavor is pale malt and earthy, citrusy C-hops. Nice oily palate.

Draught. Poured pale orange with thick white head. Aroma of hop, flowers, citrus and pine. Full piney, floral taste. Lekker hop finish. Good with roast vegetables.
