Yellow, gold body, foggy and stinking of cascades, mild balance of smooth light malts and pleasant cascade floral flavor, a very pleasing plae ale, had two pints of it while out to eat in the city.

22oz bottle. Pours clearish golden amber with a moderate sized white head, good lace. Smell ever so slightly nutty with subdued earthy, grassy hops and a hint of cereal, sweet malt. Tastes nice and hoppy a little on the sweet side, grassy and coating with a solid backbone of dry, cereal malt. Medium, coating body, just ok carbonation.

22 oz Bottle from John’s in Portland. Pours a nice dark orange color with a big white head. Very fruity and cascadey with a bitter finish. Kind of a boring pale ale, not that it’s a super exciting style to begin with I suppose. This one kind of just sits there.

Huge white head and good lacings. Amber color and piney-hop aroma. Malt and hops are typical of the West Coast IPA flavors and a bit much for an APA. Very fine brew. Only downside was the possible over carbonation but may have been the result of too much josteling on the trip home. Would definately have this again. Nice label art.

Nice flagship, west coast APA. Nice biscuity malt backbone with a full floral hop component. Light pine and citrus,
