Apr 5, 2009 Smells intensely of fresh hop flowers. Bit of foam at the top, but not much head to speak of. Obvious hop taste, but without the ridiculous bitterness you get in some Double IPAs. Drinks smoothly with some maltiness. Up there as one of my favorite IPAs. So far so good from Ninkasi.

Apr 4, 2009 Bottle shared by wolf-man! Red/orange color, decent head that faded away quickly. Nice aroma of light floral hops. Taste is malty...but not in a bad way. Its lost its hop bite. This bottle must have some age on it. Kind of sugary in the after taste.Smooth and easy to drink. Nice DIPA. Overall I enjoyed sipping on this beer but wouldnt go out of my way to have it again. Probably alot better when it was fresh...

Mar 16, 2009 interesting name for this brewery in the US .. very solid smooth bitterness .. great beautiful lacing ... medium orange brown colour like the colour of a basketball at the knicks game, beeeeautiful!, stupid guvo, the patriots suck gweedo ... bottle from Bottletrek in Oregon, whats up travis ... very easy to drink, the bitterness level is right on with a nice backbone ... hides the ABV absolutely magically ... marble sure is happy .. again, whats up with the name ninkasi, am i in japan? i sure wish i had some general toe (just fuckin with ya, Gigi.. who? bla bla bla) .. this could be quite popular around the US with draft distribution, i mean bottle is wonderful but there are DIPA’s that match this ...

Mar 10, 2009 Pours fairly lifeless orange with a small amount of lace. Bready-yeasty aroma balanced by a floral hoppiness hints of apple juice and ice-tea. Semi-sweet, full mouthfeel, finishes bitter. Your basic double IPA.

Feb 23, 2009 Pours a dull hazy gold with a bit of lace and a thin layer of foam. Nice medicinal hops, sudsy malt aroma. Fusel hoppy taste, medicinal hops again, very astringent and odd. Good carbonation and decent body. Nice, but a bit off-putting with the medicinal qualities.
