Jul 10, 2007 Hand Bottle from growler. Big thanks to cbkschubert for sending me this one. Pours a cloudy orange body with nice head. Aroma is of citrus, tropical hops, big maltiness. Flavor is very hoppy, heavy citrus - grapefruit tones, big sweet malty backbone. Nicely done but the syrupy hoppness may be a bit overdone for me.

Jul 7, 2007 12oz bottle hand bottled by cbkschubert - Thanks Craig for the chance to try this one! Pours cloudy amber with a big offwhite head that settles back to a film and laces in sheets. Aromas of big grapefruit and pine over sweet caramel malts. Flavor is pleasantly hoppy as well lots of grapefruit and pine with caramel to balance it nicely.. Good balanced palate and but somewhat resiny and it did lean some toward the hops. Pretty tasty though and enjoyable!

Jun 17, 2007 Growler from the Mission Valley, SD location - Pours a slightly hazy amber color with a one finger thick off white head. Nice lacing. Aroma is pine, citrus, and grassy hops. Flavor is mosty hops with some light sweet malt in the background. The alcohol is noticeable. Leaves a slight astringent/alcohol aftertaste. Medium body. This is one 2IPA that could use a little extra time to smooth out the edges. Still a good beer.

Jun 15, 2007 Via Growler via trade with WestsideThreat. Shared this big hop slamming brew with some old High School pals. Pours amber with a thin white head. The aroma is big citrussy with lots of fresh hops. the taste is sweet hoppy and full of citrus almost as nice as alpine nelson but not quite. Sticky citrus palate. Yum.

Jun 3, 2007 Tried at Pizza Port’s Real Ale festival from cask. Great hoppy aroma! Big bubble head (arg!) Slightly cloudy. A bit bitter of course from the abundant use of hops, but still nice. Sweet background. i kind of like it, even though it is a bit bitter for me.

May 26, 2007 Draft @ Oggis Mission Valley. Ahhhh now we are back to west coast beers. Amber in the glass and slightly hazed, topped with a creamy off-white head that leaves thick lacing. Nice big IPA classic aroma. The flavor finds lemon and orange citrus with caramel background. Medium body and moderate bitterness throughout. Very nice!!
