Oct 1, 2006 Bottle. Unfiltered light copper color with a white frothy head. Oranges, sawdust, flowers and sweet malt aromas. Very bitter taste with a subdued hop aroma. Honey-like sweet notes. Grapefruit, oranges, straw and ginger. Lingering, bitter finish.

Jun 28, 2007 Courtesy of bu11zeye. Pours gold with a generous whote head. Smells of nice balanced citrus, flowers and caramel. Tastes lightly tangy with a great hoppy balance. Wish I could say more, but I’m too busy enjoying this one.

Jul 22, 2006 Diminishing head, very nice amber color. Has a bitter citrus flavor. By this point in the tasting my notes are a little sparse but they do say that this one rocked it for me. Gotta have some more of this. Enyoyed at Immy’s tasting.

Jan 14, 2007 Bottle conditioning means better beer in my book. This one pours a bit hazy with a deep golden color and a thick 3/4 inch head. The nose is resplendant with big grapefruit hints probably lots of Chinook hops? Flavor is extremely complex with a big body backed up with a crisp almost dry hoppy finish. This beer can stand up to almost anything. I certainly enjoy the palate of this and will drink many as I grow older.

Feb 28, 2007 Another great beer from Hair of the Dog. Probably now approaching one of my favorite breweries. Aroma is very malty and sweet. Appearance is cloudy light brown with a thick head. Mouthfeel is incredibly smooth. Flavor is great with a mild hoppy flavor and nice thick IPA aftertaste.

Jul 6, 2008 Updated: Aug 30, 2009I had a bad bottle of this at Pure Luck in Hollywood one time that turned me off of this. Then I had a week old bottle at the Stuffed Sandwich and this is clearly a fantastic DIPA. Nose is rich with orange, grapefruit, cream, spicy hops and blossoms. Flavor is much the same and finishes long with lemon juiciness and bight pine. Really fantastic.
