Aug 20, 2008 Bottle via Dunk, thanks Steve! That lasted in the fridge less than 24hrs. Pours golden/copper color with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma is grapefruit, pine, caramel, floral. Flavor is huge blast of pine, citrus notes, that settle into caramel and grapefruit. Palate is medium+, medium carbonation, finished bitter. Resiny finish, sticky on the lips. Surprised its only 70IBU, ranks up with the best IPA’s!!

Jan 26, 2008 On tap at Toronado.
Light amber color, tan head. Really sticky lace, looks appetizing.
Smells very juicy. Pine and citrus and fruit, great layering of different hops.
Full flavored, a ton of hoppiness. Succulent pine and citrus, grapefruit, spice, pale malt, nice bitterness level.
Smooth, good carbonation, extremely drinkable. Russian River really can’t do any wrong.

Nov 11, 2009 bottle, thanks to wavers1! Pours light orange with a medium frothy white head. Pine and grapefruit hop aromas. Sweet pale malt and a slight toasted/nutty maltyness are cut sharply by a very nice hop bitterness more on the pine/peppery side than citrus. Nice and dry finish, a solid IPA.

Apr 24, 2006 Updated: May 14, 2006Pours a lovely golden color, with a nice fluffy head. Some pine flavors mixed with a wonderful piney hop taste. This stuff smells amazing. If you have ever opened a very fresh bag of Northern California Marijuana, that’s what I smell. Amazing stuff. The original IIPA.

Dec 10, 2008 Copper color with thin, foam, white head. Smell is strong pine with grapefruit. Excellent smell. Taste is actually a little less bold than the smell would suggest. Slightly sweet, but smooth and not ultra-bitter. Very good IPA.
