Draught @ the brewpub. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a small off-white ead. Has a malty pine hoppy aroma with some grapefruit hints. Malty hoppy bitter grapefruit flavor with some hints of pine needles. Long hoppy bitter finish with hints of grapefruit and a hoppy bitter aftertaste.

Pours a hazy gold orange with a white head. Citrus, hops and pine in the aroma. Bitter, pine, and maybe some peat in the flavor making for a bitter finish.

A little bit different than many IPAs. I could taste peach. The finish has a subtle earthiness to it.

One of my all time favorite IPAs in the NW style. Extremely well balanced, the hops are agressive, but not overpowering, always in balance with a moderate malt background keeping everything in check. Great lingering resiny aftertaste.

<i>12 fl. oz. bottle shared with Lubiere (merci!), served cold in a goblet.</i><br /><br /> <b>App.</b>: Really cloudy orange-brown with broken up hop cones in the bottle! <b>Aroma</b>: Very sweet citrus, big juicy hops, leafy, musty and earthy, some fruity malts. <b>Palate</b>: Medium body, moderate-soft effervescence, oh, and hop leaves. <b>Flav.</b>: Musty tangerine, lots of orange peel, leafy hops, some sweet malts; a bit sweet with a nice bitter finish that leaves some of the citrus aftertaste.<br /><br /> Really neat! I would likely strain the hops out next time.
