Oct 9, 2004 Pours a clear copper color with a lacey white head. Has a dry, fresh hoppy aroma wirh a touch of sweet caramel malt. Body is a mix of sweet and dry with caramel malt and floral hop interplay. Finishes dry and hoppy with a crisp bitterness. A decent IPA.

Oct 7, 2004 very nice IPA, very smooth, not as sweet as some IPA’s, more bitter throughout, but not to strong, the malts are there but don’t overwhelm the good fresh hop finish.

Oct 3, 2004 Clearish, bronzish appearance, with a thick, creamy, milky head.
Aroma is nicely hoppy, English-style, it feels, lacks the mark of those Western U.S. hops....gets better with further sniffs...nicely citric, grapefruit, lemon, pineapple, pine, ...pinecones, even...
Taste: yum, this is the stuff! Wow! Full-blown hoppiness, dry finish, medium-bodied, incessant flavor. Fairly floods the mouth with hop bitterness! Damn, but this is good stuff!
I must bend down, as must we all, to genuflect to the amazing wealth of craft-brewing going on in every corner of America. I’d never heard of this brewery until this bottle fell into my possession, and they have it nailed, but good!
Very drinkable, very flavorful, ....I would be supremely ecstatic to have this readily available...huzzah to all you Washingtonians who can sip this top-notch ale with ease!

Oct 2, 2004 This IPA has a ton of citrus hops in both the taste and aroma, probably cascade would be my guess. Pours a nice glowing amber with a medium white head. I think this needed a bit more malt to balance out the hops a bit, but still a very delicious hoppy brew with a dry finish.

Sep 30, 2004 This was delicious. Poured amber with an off-white head. Nose was citrusy and hoppy. Grapefruitty. Medium body with nice carbonation and a pleasant feel in the mouth. The flavor was very appealing. Nice fresh citrus essence. Refreshing and crisp. I liked this IPA.

Sep 28, 2004 There is absolutly nothing not to like about this IPA. Pours almost amber with a lasting off white head. Aroma more floral than citrus but it’s in there also. A real PNW classic. Stinging bitterness is almost consumed by a maltiness that leaves just the sting way on the back of the tongue. Exceptional. Thanks frielock
(Jacob) for throwing this baby in as a bonus. A real surprise for a beer I hadn’t heard of.
