Nov 17, 2004 Bright amber appearance with an aroma that is mostly hoppy along with some softer fruit characteristics. Hops dominate the taste as well, but oddly, there is a bit of nuttiness in there. Dry, bitter finish.

Oct 16, 2004 (Draft: O’Brien’s in San Diego, CA) Supposedly the first attempt at a wet hopped beer by Left Coast and Tom Nickel, so I expect future batches to be more impressive; Here, the hoppy, grapefruit flavor is dominant, with not too much else going on beyond the hoppiness; It’s quite bitter from start to finish, and as expected, the palate is pretty clean and crisp; The nose is moderately hoppy, but not as aromatic as expected; Dark golden color, somewhat cloudy; Pours with absolutely no head, so obviously there is no lacing
