Oct 25, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours orange with thin head. Aroma of citrus and hops, some floral. Flavor is similiar, with a big juicy grapefruit punch. Medium to long bitter finish, but not over the top. I must admit I was not expecting much from this seasonal ale, but it turned out to be a decent PNW IPA representation.

Oct 10, 2008 Bottle. Pours an amber orange body with a white head. Lots of citrus and grapefruit. Floral with notes of honey and caramel. Some etoh but well masked by the hops.

Jun 17, 2008 A nice, tastey, citrusy IPA. Pours a hazey bright orange colour with a fairly large white head. Plenty of fruit on the nose, and a sweet floral aroma.

Mar 8, 2008 Bottle via homebrew swap. Thanks! Copper golden body, white head w. nice lacing. Nose is piney resin, grapefruit hops. A lot of malt in there - caramel, butterscotch. As the aroma continues a bit of spiciness rises out of the hops. Alcohol is there but not overwhelming. Flavor is loads of caramel, piney resin, fruit - orange, strawberry, apricot. A hint of toffee. Very fruity hoppy finish. Wish I could get this around here!

Mar 1, 2008 12 oz bottle, via kenb. Pours a clear copper with a one finger fizzy off-white head. Decent retention, minimal visible carbonation. Nice vibrant citrusy and floral hop nose with a little toasted crackery malt. Light caramel sweetness. The flavor is well balanced for a West Coast IPA, bright citrusy hops taking the lead with a slightly sweet toasted malt finish. Moderate bitterness on the biscuity finish. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a slight resiny stickiness and moderate fizzy carbonation. Overall, a pretty nice IPA. Nice and bright, the way I like ’em.

Jan 25, 2008 Orange/amber, with a white head. Aroma is citrus, sugar, and malt. Flavor is citrusy hops, caramel, and malt. A nice, solid brew, but nothing spectacular.
