May 14, 2009 Copper pour with small white head. Some citrus in the aroma and flavor with hops, finishes rather bitter but watery. Honestly could not tell if it was a pale ale or IPA, it really was that watered down.

Apr 27, 2009 Bottle sample at local BA gathering.
Poured a clear copper color with a large frothy off-white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate citrus, resin and earthy aroma. Medium body with a slick texture and soft carbonation. Medium bitter flavor with a medium bitter finish of moderate duration.
My expectations where met and this beer would go well with spicy food.

Mar 30, 2009 On tap at Rich O’s public house. Was a bit ill when I tried it, so my experience was marred. But I quite liked this one. Great hop taste with the right amoutn of maltiness.

Mar 16, 2009 Draft. Pours amber orange with a lasting khaki head. Sweet hoppy aroma, resinous, piny and citric. The flavor has a load of hops, seemed a bit astringent to me, with notes of floral and pine. Pretty good.

Mar 1, 2009 Bottle from Monument in Concord, CA. Indeed the smell of hops for this one was intense, but the citrus was a little lost in this brew. I’m sure it’s been in their fridge for a while. We still got some pine, and it was very smooth.

Feb 26, 2009 Bottle from Monument in Concord, CA. Poured an amber color with a good sized head. The smell of hops was intense. I was actually expecting more citrus hop flavor, but in was very piney in flavor. Excellant blend of hops and malt backbone. Good brew!!

Feb 19, 2009 Since the hop season was last year I can assume this beer is about five months old. Pours clear amber with a big inch of of white fluffy head. Very nicely laced. Aroma is citrus and caramel. Taste is full citrus bitter hops with a bit of leather and a very supportive caramel malt backbone. Mouthfeel is full and a bit wine like. Drinkability is very good for an IPA. Slightly sweet for the style but hops probably have faded a bit due to age.

Feb 16, 2009 Clear dark amber with a beige creamy head that lingers with a froth on top and leaves plenty of lacing. Piny hops, lemons, grass, and a malty sweet backbone to the aroma. Flavor is hoppy bitter, sweet malt, with light alcohol noticeable in the finish. A bit sticky sweet.
