Mar 4, 2009 Notes of mint complement citrus and floral hops and underlying malt sweetness in the nose. Hazy dirty gold coloured body is topped by a generous and fluffy white head that recedes fairly quickly to a lasting cover with very nice lacing. Strong bitterness is somewhat harsh in character and overshadows the malt sweetness and floral and citrus notes. Somewhat grainy in the aftertaste. Medium body with lightly pointy effervescence. Tulip glass. Cellar temperature. Bottle purchased at Brewery Creek in Mar-09.

Mar 2, 2009 Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy amber with a medium sized creamy white head. Clean citrus hops on the nose along with a bit of malt backing it up. Medium thick, sticky and a bit sweet. Finishes with a good grapefruit bitter that moves to more of a quinine as it develops.

Feb 27, 2009 Bottle from acknud, the hopmaster. pours an orange color with a nice white head. Aroma has some great citrus and floral hops with some notes of honey and malt. But the malt is only in the flavor. This one bites with lime peel and pure pine bitterness. Unreall how strong the hop presence is in this one. Thanks acknud!!

Feb 23, 2009 Updated: Apr 28, 2009form a 22oz - pours like an olympic golden medal and a little hazy with some sediment and a 1.5" solid white head - leaves notches of lacing all down the glass - taste is where this beer shines - an outstanding west coast ipa with earthy hops up front and malt sweetness on the finish - creamy mouth feel - reminds alot of stone ipa with less bite on the finish - wish they made sixers of this

Feb 16, 2009 Pours copper / orange that is lightly hazy with a light soapy beige head. The aroma is bready with malt, some tropical fruits, moderate toast, caramel and citric hops. Medium body that is fairly crisp with some resin and semi-soft carbonation. The flavor starts out with piny earthy harsh hops and the underlying malt with traits mentioned in the aroma. The finish is quite harsh and punchy. Very nice IPA.

Feb 15, 2009 TAP: at the Happy Gnome (St. Paul, MN) on 2.14.09. This is a good, solid IPA, but not special, and certainly can’t measure up with the really good IPAs (ie. Two Hearted, Furious, etc.). Orange pour, pine character.
