Commercial Description:
This West Coast-Style India Pale Ale is extravagantly hopped, full flavored, medium bodied and copper colored. A menagerie of hops is combined throughout the brewing process to impart specific characteristics. Hops used include Simcoe for a unique fruitiness and grapefruit zest, Columbus for strong hop pungency, Centennial for pine and citrus notes, and Cascade for floral aroma.

Burnt orange appearance with a fair amount of head and light lacing. A bit too much on the citrus and hops. Too much carbonation and foam for not a lot in the way of body.

On tap on 7/9/09 at Toronado, SD. Pours lsolid clear orange, light white head. Nice pine and citrus hops, but expected more. Flavors are balanced nicely with a good bitter finish. Definitely a west coast IPA.

On tap at The Comet. Dark gold with a medium frothy white head. Very nice citrus hop aroma. The flavor is balanced with a solid hop bite and subtle malt backing. Very crisp with a dry, bitter finish and aftertaste. For hop lovers only. A fine example of the style.

Bottle. Poured typical orange with nice white head. Love the bouquet of hoppiness in the aroma. Citrusy, piney, lot’s of grapefruity. Flavor was also a lovely blend of hop character. Hopped out explosion on the mouth. Bitter finish, awesome beer.

Sampled on draft at Custom Home Pubs in Charlotte. Appearance was a glowing orange. Aroma: Huge citrus, grassy hops. Taste is big and bitter. Citrus and pine hops really make this a treat for IPA lovers like me. No let-up in the hops in the finish. A delicious IPA.

Bottle, pours a semi clean golden beer with a thin white head. Aroma is awesome, supery hoppy and a burst of citrus/pine. Body is medium with a bitter dry finish. Very nice
