Commercial Description:
This is our unique version of an ancient style. A style as old as the ocean trade routes of the last centuries Great Ships. Not as old as the equator they had to cross twice enroute, nor as old as the 10,000 or so miles of Di-Hydrogen Oxide and Sodium upon which they sailed, but older than the Circulithium-4 Lentloid that binds the Lupulin Quartnate onto your taste buds. Weird. Think about it. Now stop. OK, go again, now stop. Think again, and stop. But we digress. Made with 43 different hops and 65 various malts, this redolent ale will likely float your boat, whatever planet you're on.

Beautiful hazy orange color. Great grapefruit/apple/bitter flavor/aroma. I was a little afraid of this beer from the reviews and the fact that I do not usually like IPA’s, but I found this drink very enjoyable.

Lagunitas certainly found a winner in their blending. With as many different kinds of hops and malts, I would be concerned with their ability to keep the brew consistent. But I would say this one's a winner though. Their bottle says it best... "Life Is Uncertain, Don't Sip!"

This had a creamy eggshell white head that rode on an amber beer that was hazy and showed some yeast sediment from the disturbance of it’s bottle conditioned yeast cake. Caramel aroma sets the stage for the big grapefruit hop that is up front. Creamy sticky smoothness with a long bitter finish. Nice.

Pours a clear orange/pinkish color body with a clingy, white foam on top. Aroma was sweet citrus and piney hops. It seems that all of the hop flavors are balancing each other out. You get about a half of a second of every flavor associated with hops. Never enough of any to really make me jump but all around a very well/over balanced ipa. Great session brew!

A nice dry IPA with a very bitter finish. I can’t wait for this brewer to start distribution in Florida.

Poured a medium to dar amber with a large off white head. Fair amount of particles. Hoppy smelling with aromas of pineapples, pine, citris and oranges. Starts off sightly sweet and ends in a nice hoppy bitterness. Orange tastes. Very good IPA.

12oz. brown bottle. Pours medium clear orange, lasting white cap, two fingers in height, leaves good lace. Grapefuit hops are present in the aroma, though light. Flavour starts with fruity malt, some sweetness, grapefruit and orange hop notes mid way through then finishes with medium grapefruit bitterness. Good session ale.
