Nov 23, 2009 On tap @ 4:20, giallo oro antico, bellissima morbida e cremosa la schiuma, con una buona persistenza, i profumi del luppolo non eccedono come si potrebbe pensare, molto soft, ma l’amaro al palato viene fuori in maniera strepitosa, intenso ed aggressivo, agrumato e fruttato, la birra è molto secca,ma sono ben percettibili buone e fini note di malto..

Nov 12, 2009 Tap at Carlsbad. I would drink this every day if I could. Nice dank hoppy aroma, some balancing but subdued malt, really great Simcoe character this season, fully hoppy but smooth... well done guys.

Nov 8, 2009 On tap at Toronado San Diego. Clear medium amber color with a one finger white head. Aroma is fresh hops, earth, citrus, grapefruit, and some caramel malt. Flavor is similar to the aroma with earth, citrus, and pine, very freshly hopped, with a little caramel malt backbone, although the hops dominate. Long bitter hop finish with medium body. A real palate wrecker.
