Pours golden amber with just a little bit of haze. Thick and sticky pure white head. Aroma is full of clean citrus. Grapefruit and bubble gum. The flavor comes off as pine right down to the prickly bitter finish. Medium body, but drinks fairly light. Long bitter finish. I can surely see why the west coast guy sing Blind Pig’s praises.

Courtesy of kmweaver. Hazy pale with a small white head. Massive grapefruit and tangerine nose with an unfortunate crystal malt note underneath. The flavor is lightly sweet, with ice tea, grapefruit, some pine, tangerine and a bit of cattiness. Medium body is round with moderate carbonation.

Tasted 8/13/09. 500ml bottle. Bottled on March 3 2009. Mildly sedimented with a deep golden hue. Brain and ring of off-white head. Good nose with hints of citrus grapefruit and sweet breads. Nice earthy note. Medium bodied and rather sharp on the initial sip. Astringent effervescence. Tingling hoppy flavor. Solid palate. Good roast on the malt aspect. Finishes sweet with a mildly cloying aspect. Good flavor and on the dry side. Fruity and tasty. Big bitterness but still with a solid sessionable quality.

Draught Toronado Pub. Beautiful perfumy hop aroma. Hazy dark gold. Lighter in color than the Moonlight Bombay by Boat IPA I had previously. Artful lace. Excellent lace. Very good bitterness. Best IPA of the night. Outstanding.

Bottle: Sort of a pale golden pour with a finger of fluffy white head and lots of sticky lacing. Aroma is rich with fruity and citrus sweetness and an underly sense of pine. The hoppiness in the flavor is intense with florals and citrus, yet remains dangerously drinkable. Finishes very well, hoppy with a smooth malty sweetness working with the citrus and fruity notes. Really nice.

On tap at the brewery. Bushy grassy bits of light caramels. Very straight up but with textural (heavy) differences from IPA standards that set thsi apart. The hoppy qualities are very palatable and appreciable without the fuil force West Coast hop bill.
