Aug 13, 2007 Updated: Aug 21, 2008This had a huge aroma of pine and citrus hops. Pours a gold orange. Flavor was nicely hopped. Straight up bitter citrus with a little light fruity malt as a balance. Finishes very dry and bitter. This was also a pretty heavy brew.

Jun 29, 2007 Cask @ Linkery. Tasty IPA. Aroma is light and fresh lightly hoppy. Pours amber w/ a stable 1 finger tan head. The taste is light and smooth with a decent hop punch. Pretty good brew.

Jun 21, 2007 Cask @ Linkery. Yum. Easily the best beer that SDBC has produced. Nice to see the upswing in creativity. It’s exactly what you would expect from a San Diego IPA. Fresh smelling, palate crushing, smooth finishing. I hope this goes into regular rotation.

Jun 10, 2007 On tap at the County Fair festival. Wonderful citrus aromas with the nice pine accents. Smooth on the palate and flavors of balanced hop bitterness with good full finish. Good SD IPA once again.

May 11, 2007 Draught.
Clear orange-brown body with a soapy medium sized white head.
The aroma is superbly fresh - really orangey with citrus skin resin. Slightly sweet, buttery flavour up front. The middle is reasonably sharp and piney with tangerine and melon fruit flavours. Somewhat one-dimensonal.
Pint at Hamilton’s in San Diego on March 25, 2007.

Apr 3, 2007 Updated: Jun 9, 2007Draft at brewery. Lots of hoppy fruits. Apricot, mango, citrus. Flavors were also hoppy with a nice malty back. Bitter finish is quite nice.
