May 28, 2008 Pours a light orange color with an off-white head. Aroma is of citrus and malts. The taste is disappointing, as it is a melange of flavors. The malty nature overtakes the hops, which in my mind is a no-no for an IPA. This brew has a flat mouthfeel and a dull finish. This is near the bottom of my list for IPAs (if not the very bottom).

Dec 26, 2007 Pours copper, with a smallish head that dissipates quickly. Very clear. Aroma of strong citrus hops, well balanced with malts... but that balance ends at the first taste. The hops come through, but not much else does. It just tastes bitter, without any of the complexity that I’ve come to enjoy from better IPAs. The mouthfeel is very nice, but overall, this is one of the more disappointing IPAs I’ve tried.

Nov 16, 2007 Pours a clear golden orange with a medium white head. Lacing. Aroma of faint floral hops and malt. Taste is grainy with a hoppy presence and a slight pine detection. Average at best.

Nov 10, 2007 22 oz bottle via Roth’s. Pours a semi-hazy amber with a small white head. Not getting much aroma from this one, just some subtle maltiness and floral hops. Taste starts with some toastiness, then some earthy hops kick-in, a bit of pine, and ends with a biscuity graininess. This seems like a cross between an East Coast IPA and an English IPA. Not what you expect from a West Coast brewery, but a sessionable tasty Ale nonetheless. Body is light, carbonation is moderate to high.

Sep 29, 2007 12 oz. bottle - up there among the worst "microbrews" i’ve tried; stale aromas and flavors with hardly a hint of hops

Jul 26, 2007 Medium sweet malt aroma, with some metallic butterscotch. Grassy grapefruit and biscuit. Orange-amber clear with foamy lacing head. Medium bodied with medium carbonation. Fine tasting IPA with medium sweetness, mild bitter finish and smooth after.

Jul 10, 2007 Gold with a thin white head. Nice piney hoppiness, with some fruit and caramel. Pretty hoppy with floral notes, caramel, fruit, followed by a little bit of honey.
