Mar 4, 2009 Fuck yea. This beer rocks, the best tall can I’ve ever had. Pours reddish orange color with a ton of egg shelled colored head. There was a serious blast of pine and citrus when I cracked the can. Taste was hoppy and fresh with a nice aftertaste. Was not dry like some IPA’s but very smooth and wet. Extremely refreshing brew, I wish I could pick this one up everyweekend. One of the best session beers out there.

Feb 26, 2009 Thanks to lb4lb for the bottle!
Dark amber with a fluffy white head. Nose has some caramel, major pine, and orange. Flavor is similar, a little more malt and bread yet also more citrus to keep the balance. Moderate palate but where is the carbonation??... just kind of falls flat. Good beer, nice balance, but it’s not a top tier IPA.

Feb 21, 2009 On tap, in a can, and tea-bagged. Pours a clear amber with a nose that is just plain hops. Simcoe and Amarillo hops mix to bring a blend of citris and pine. Caramel flavors but not too sweet and just plain hoppy. A smooth bitterness on the tongue that lasts for a while. One of my favorite beers.

Feb 21, 2009 Updated: Feb 23, 200916 oz can brought back from Minnesota by my dear friend Kathy. Pours a dark amber with a one finger white head. Interesting melange of hop aromas, some flowers, some grapefruit and a nice pine bite at the end. Hefty orange flavor with some lemon, grapefruit and pineapple behind it and a pine snap in the finish. The flavors linger for ages after the can is gone, which is good since I ran out of the stuff!

Feb 18, 2009 Appearance: Pours a dark orange or amber with a perfect 1 inch off white head.
Aroma: Light whiffs of piney hops, a little bit of citrus, and crystal malt.
Taste: Orange, lemon, pineapple, bitter piny hops, and sugar sweetness. Finishes with a nice level of bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Juicy, thick. Flavors stick and linger long after the sip.
Overall: Bursting with flavor. I am noticing a trend in the IPAs and IIPA’s coming out of the region. This is a very west coast like beer.

Feb 16, 2009 Can from trade with valpodogs. Pours a hazy yellow-brown with a small beige head. Nose is floral hops with pine and citrus, sweet malt, caramel, and pine all come together in this whirlwind. Flavor is piney bite finishing with astringent citrus. Lots of Belgian lace on the glass. Finish lingers with astringent citrus. Medium-bodied mouthfeel to this interesting canned craft beer.

Feb 13, 2009 Very good for a "regular" IPA. Frothy and resilient head, citrusy and resiny smell, non offensive flavor that could sit at a bench with it’s bigger DIPA brothers. This would absolutely be my go-to IPA, if only we could regularly get it here.
