Oct 2, 2009 Pours rich golden with white head. wonderful aroma with rich pine and citrus as well as a solid malt undertone. Flavor is a beautiful balance of malt, bitterness and hop flavor. Rich, but not lingering with the bitterness cutting though. The medium high carbonation adds to the experience helping the malt come out as well as accentuating the hops. A really great APA and what the style should be about; balance.

Sep 29, 2009 Draft at Sheffields. Pours a nice golden color, white head. Nose is standard Lagunitas dank. Resiny and floral. Taste is very well balanced, leaning a bit towards the hops. Very nice.

Sep 27, 2009 On tap @ Redlight. Light amber/straw color, thin white head. Nice strong citric hop aroma, quite strong for a pale. Smooth taste, nice crisp finish, delivers a lot of hops for a pale.

Sep 25, 2009 Pours an amber color with an off-white head. Nice citrus and pine hop aroma with some caramel malts. Flavor is decently hoppy at first with some sweet caramel malt in the middle and a decent bitter finish.

Sep 24, 2009 12oz screwtop bottle. For some reason I found the Lagunitas IPA to be just average so I wasn’t expecting much from their pale ale but geesh, this is pretty good. In fact it could almost be considered an IPA as it has a such a good mix of pine and hop taste to it. Really good pale ale. I think I may need to retry their IPA.
