Sep 17, 2009 Amber liquid with a white cap of foam and lots of lacing and bubbles sticking to the glass. Strong citrus and pine hop aroma. Caramel malt. Clean, crisp flavors in both aroma and flavor. Strong hop flavor with a good crisp bitter bite. The malt is strong and sweet enough to let the hop flavors come through. It’s a very solid IPA. Nice and oily with hop essence. Good aftertaste and appropriate carbonation. Good drinkable IPA.

Sep 13, 2009 Poured from a bomber, purchased in Littleton, CO.
Aroma- Piney resin, high hop aroma, berry-like esters.
Appearance- Light orange in color. Sturdy off-white head, some chill haze.
Flavor- Low-medium sweetness, Low malt flavor. High Pine hop flavor, very nice. Some fruity esters.
Palate- On the dryer side, yet still has lots of body. High carbonation.
Overall- Great showcase of hops, yeast adds a nice fruity flavor, but there is no malt character to speak of and it’s over-carbonated. Great overall beer.

Sep 12, 2009 The label here is pretty entertaining with the whole 401k, 301k, 201k deal and the "this is not a double IPA". I mean it tasted eerily similar to one but call it what you will. Pour was a transparent orange with plenty of bubbly carbonation. Grassy hop aroma, piney hop flavor and sticky resiny hop finish. A bit of citrus working itself through as well, some orange. Pretty enjoyable overall. Toned down sweetness but still present enough to make itself known. This rating was sort of an unceremonious milestone but after 11 others, who the hell is counting here. beer 1200!

Sep 10, 2009 22oz bottle, 9/6/09. A very delicous non-IPA. I will most definitely buy and try again. Another strong showing by Lagunitas.

Sep 10, 2009 Another nice smelling brew. Pineapple among some other fruits. Very easy to drink, a present but not overpowering hop bite to it, and an overall tasty floral citrus character. excellent stuff.
