Oct 15, 2008 Thanks to kegbear for this bomber. Pours bright yellow orange with white head. Aroma is grassy and floral hops, grapefruit, and sweet malt. Flavor is very hoppy with huge dose of grapefruit citrus with some sweet malt. Finishes sweet and bitter. A very good IIPA.

Oct 12, 2008 Very hoppy. It has taste and palate that is very memorable. Smells just like it tastes. A great pour. Head remains on glass as you consume.

Oct 11, 2008 Bottle. Straightforward double IPA with little depth. Light orange body. Thick, frothy, white head that diminishes. The aroma is mostly hoppy with notes of resin and rubber. Hints of toasted grain and bread dough. The flavor is moderately sweet, moderately acidic and moderately to heavily bitter. Medium to full body, smooth texture, sticky finish. Alcohol comes forward in the finish as the sweetness diminishes and the bitterness sticks around. Moderately acidic in the finish as well.

Oct 9, 2008 Pour - a light amber, yellow when put up to light. Smell - Floral, piney, and lightly of oranges. Taste - Bitter, creamy, and slightly of oranges. I’ll be trying more of Green Flash’s line-up.

Oct 8, 2008 (650ml bottle) Purchased at The Strath in Victoria for $5.95. Pours a quick dissipating, frothy white head atop a light orange body. Nose is great... Reminds me of Big Star’s IPAs. Very floral and bitter - and most importantly FRESH! It smells late-hopped. Flavour is so overly hoppy, creamy malt finish mashes the tart orange and pine flavours. Very good. 8/4/8/5/17

Oct 7, 2008 Pours a hazy yellow with some amber hues. Foamy off white head. Looks real nice. Super nose of sweat onion (typical from Sumimit hops and light pine background. really that’s about it, but it is surely enough. The flavor is not quite where I’d like it. The oniony Summit hops are there and taste very good, but I prefer things a bit more on the aggressive side. Medium body with and oily mouthfeel. Average carbonation with a sweet malt finish and a cutting bitterness. Really a fine beer.

Oct 5, 2008 beautiful yellow/amber pour with a HUGE sticky frothy white head. Aroma of grassy hops, with some big notes of citrus, and grapefruit. Flavor is very nice, some great hops in here, lovely citrus, and some really nice malt, this is one of the most balanced DIPA i’ve had, very very nice. But not as big and bitter as i was expecting. I found their west coast IPA to be hoppier.
