CelticBrew (450), The Crystal Coast, North Carolina, USA May 2, 2008 Pours a medium slightly hazy amber from 22 oz bomber. Forms medium size white foamy head. Aroma of ocean water, hops, slight pine resins with some citrusy malts. Flavour of dry pine resins with hopped caramel essence. It begs to be drank, a little grapefruits and hop resin makes this beer special. Wish I had a keg of it on tap.
D_malone102 (67), Denver, Colorado, USA Aug 17, 2008 Citrus Hoppiness Dominates. This is the epitome of a west coast IPA. Fruity tones combine with a soft maltiness to add some balance. veshi (2), USA does not count Aug 13, 2008 Shared this beer with my neighbor. A good citrus-y aroma and a very pleasant and hoppy flavor. Fruitfly (30), , Pennsylvania, USA Aug 10, 2008 Hazy orange amber with active light head. Smell is a nice range of fragrant hops with pine and a tiny bit of carmel malts. Flavor is noticably shallow. Finish is bitter and fresh. I prefer IPAs with more malt balance. yespr (6162), Copenhagen O, Denmark Aug 6, 2008 At Lost Abbey and Pizza Port Carlsbad. Pours clear and golden orange with a lacing white head. Peach fruity and light orange fruity hops aroma. Dry hoppy and mild caramel malty for base flavour. Fruity hoppy and light spiced flavour with a solid bitterness following. Ends dry and fruity hoppy, light burn in the far finish. HughConway (259), USA Aug 5, 2008 Bottle. Pours amber with decent head. Hops, hops, hops. In aroma, in flavor, in finish. Nice west coast IPA
