Nov 7, 2009 Pretty good, and a little unexpected. I expected a lot of hop character but the intense citrus taste was a little bit of a surprise. It was really hoppy and was actally pretty refreshing.

Nov 4, 2009 Bottle, 12 fl. oz. Pours a golden beer with an orange/offwhite head.The aroma is hops with citrus. The flavor is likewise hops with citrus. The palate is bitter. Overall a simple but good beer.

Oct 31, 2009 When you have finished a grapefruit that is covered in honey and you squeeze it into your mouth, this is what you taste with the Maximus IPA. Love the big piney hop notes and creamy malt texture.

Oct 24, 2009 22 oz bottle. Pours amber in colour, with decent head. Aroma and flavour are intensely hoppy, primarily floral/herbal in nature. One kick ass IIPA.

Oct 22, 2009 12oz bottles from a sixer from Whole Foods. Another kick ass IIPA from Lagunitas. Strong grapefruit and pine nose. big malt heavy bottom that is almost chewable it’s so dense. but it has to be, to hold it’s own against the huge PNW hop bite. Quite easy to drink over and over again.

Oct 20, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours a clear golden copper with a finger or two of dissipating head that laces nicely as it goes. Aroma of hops, spice and citrus, with a hint of floral. Initial taste is interestingly smooth, with the bitterness coming on the finish. Up front it’s caramel sweetness, breadiness, citrus, and then bitter hop finish. Nice IPA... very nice. Lagunitas doesn’t do a wide range of stuff... but it does what it does do well... Go ahead and diagram that last sentence...

Oct 17, 2009 Bottle. 25.4 oz. Pours cloudy amber, with a thick, off-white head. Aroma of hops, spice, malt, and citrus. Full body with a crisp finish. Excellent IPA.

Oct 8, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours orange amber with an off-white head. Sweet and hoppy citrus and caramel aroma. Flavor has citrusy hops, sweet caramel, and slight grassy hops, with biscuit coming up toward the finish, then moving into a mild bitterness. Slight alcohol tingle. A very well-balanced combination of flavors; I’m very happy with this one. Not really an IIPA though, just seems like an IPA to me.
