Mar 6, 2008 Great looking beer. Piney hops over a rather sweet malt base. Pretty tasty.

Mar 6, 2008 2-21-08 bottle.
Clear orange amber in color with a nice fluffy white "IPA head". Aroma is sweet hops, but weak overall. Flavor is decent. Not as hoppy and balanced as I had hoped for. Mouthfeel is actually quite smooth and complements the flavor nicely. Overall, a bit weak and boring but drinkable nonetheless.

Mar 5, 2008 Poured amber with a fluffy off white head. Aroma of pine and hops. Lots of hops flavor up front with some pine. Finished clean and sort of wet. Not bad at all.

Mar 4, 2008 Bottle from Aggie Liquor in Davis. This one is a mix between Stone IPA and Green Flash Imperial IPA with a mostly smooth palate. On one end, you have a complex, hoppy flavors of Grapefruit and citrus that hits you immediately, but it’s also rich and smooth to boot. There was a slight aftertaste, which is my only ding on the rating. Still, very good.

Mar 3, 2008 Poured a copper color and the smell of hops exploded out of the bottle. Flavors of citrus, mainly grapefruit dominated the taste. The hops are mostly tasted in the aftertaste which brought down my rating a bit. Better control of the hops would make this a great beer.

Mar 2, 2008 A rather boring IIPA. Aroma was decent. Earthy hops with some caramel in the background. Pour was a medium clear gold with a one finger off white head. Taste was very sweet. Sticky caramel malt with a medium mouthfeel and the hops don’t come in until the aftertaste. As it warms the hops come out more but are still in the backseat.

Feb 29, 2008 On cask at Redlight. Mmmmm, been waiting for this. Pumps out of the tap a hazy amber with a thin white head. Temperature was a slight chill, really a perfect temp. The aroma was a huge bouquet of grapefruit and pine. The taste is spicy, hoppy with a grapefruit like tang to it from the huge amount of hops. A little thinner body than I expected. Finishes with a dry bitter citrus finish. Because of the cask temp, I made sure to go extra slow drinking this, because it goes down WAYYYY to easy.
