Jul 27, 2009 Tap at Toronado in SF. Clear golden-amber with a white head. Sweet malt, fruit, and citrusy hops on the aroma. Same on the flavor with sweet malt, caramel, and tropical fruits, then a nice piney/citrusy hop punch. Medium palate with a nice hint of hop oils. A quality IPA overall.

Jul 27, 2009 On tap. Clear warm amber golden with a small off-white head. Fresh, citrusy nose. Medium body, lightly sweet caramel notes, some fruit - peach in particular from the hops, that also leave a dry, hoppy finish. 090709

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Clear, warm, amber golden with a white head leaving a neat lacework. Fat aroma of caramel and aroma hops. Medium body, some lightly sweet caramel malt and then this great, citrusy hopping - more dry than bitter. Very compact flavours considering the low alcohol. 290307

Jul 20, 2009 The best overall Ipa I have ever had. The taste is perfectly balanced with hops, spice and a sweetness that makes this Ipa like heaven to drink. I wish that nectar brewing was still up in Arcata , but this beer has stood the test of time to be one of the best tasting Ipa’s ever.

Jul 16, 2009 Location: 12 oz bottle from Total Wine - Richmond, 7/16/09
Since this beer has a 6.8% ABV listed I’m guessing it’s this one not the other Humbolt IPA...
Aroma: Tropical/citrus hops, juicy and sweet, powerful and nice
Appearance: Orange-amber in color, decent amount of lacing on the glass
Flavor: Relatively balanced, nice mix of sweetness and hops, tasty brew
Palate: Medium body, nice carbonation, nice mouthfeel
Overall Impression:
This one is really tasty, huge fruity nose/flavor. Yum! Generally I don’t like this much sweetness in an IPA, but they did a great job here, a nicely done brew indeed.
**Just submitted a photo for this one, as it was missing one.

Jul 14, 2009 A nice Amber color with a thin white head, aroma is citrus, herbal and hoppy, quite complex one. Flavor is bitter and a little bit of malty could be felt. Mouthfell is bitter and spicy! Good stuff.
