Jan 16, 2007 Updated: Jan 31, 2007Moderately hazy light orange color, slightly carbonated. Aroma is of hop citrus, taste is WOW orange, grapefruit, mouth-puckering sweet bitter finish.

Jul 25, 2003 a beautiful looking golden color with a soft white head, there was a wheat flavor that mellowed out the hops that were strongly forced, a very well balanced beer especially for an ipa

Sep 14, 2004 Cask at Magnolia Pub and Brewery, San Francisco. 6.9% ABV (the draught version was 7.0% ABV!!!).
Hazy amber orange beer with an airy white head. Very hoppy and nutty aroma, quite full and delicious. Extremely bitter and little flowery flavor. Maybe the most hoppy beer I have ever had (and I have tried most of the big ones!!), this is like hop-extract! Notes of nuts and caramel also. A very nice and interesting beer!

Nov 29, 2005 On tap, at the brewpub. Dark yellow, small white head. Lots of fresh pine and tree like hops in strong aroma. Very pine/floral hops in taste - no citrus, no fruit, all pine - quite nice. Strong and substantial malt base on a light to medium body - well balanced. Short finish. Not complex, but balanced and excellent.

Mar 5, 2004 The aroma is fantastic, off the scales. The beer comes in at 140 IBU, according to the bartender. However, the taste pales in comparison to the wonderful aroma. Buy it to smell it.

Jul 16, 2004 Medium orange/red. Very sharp nose, bitter flavor... strong wood and hoppy profile. Excellent fresh hop finish, very good.

Feb 19, 2006 Cask Conditioned version
Aroma: Cascade hops are wonderfully dominant
Apparance: Golden yellow with white head and some haze which may be from the dry-hopping
Flavor: The malt is soft and round while the hops have a bright citrusy and delicious
Palate: The soft malt balances the drying finish of the hops
Overall: I preferred the cask version over the one draft. I love the soft round malt profile which support the pine like, grapefruity hoppy character... lovely
If you like the finish, try the draft version which is more carbonated and served colder than the one on cask
