Had on tap at the brewery yesterday. Amber color with little head. Slightly citrusy hop aroma. Flavor starts with caramel malt and transitions into hops. Lighter bodied, alcohol is well hidden. Overall a decent IPA, but fairly mild.

Clear plastic cupe 21 a. Aroma minimal citrus. Flavor really good, hoppy. Palate is thin.

Pint at Brewpub. Good aroma sweet. Peachy. Little grapefruit. Tad hazed brownish orange. Ok head, spotty lace. Bittersweet flavor. Medium body, creamy oily mouthfeel, bitter finish. Good ipa, I’ll.assume it’s a baseball reference because not "gigantic" in my opinion. Nice aroma, amarillo showing itself. Flavor take more grapefruit taste. Solid ipa.

On tap at the brewpub. I always thought the IPA’s from these guys got kind of lost in the shuffle of so many great West Coast IPA’s. This is another real solid offering. It pours golden with an orangy head and a nice peach, citrus and pine aroma. Very fresh and vibrant. The flavor is the same with some sweet peaches combining with piney and grassy hops. Good bitter finish.

Tap. Pours with a huge, creamy, just off-white head with good lace and good retention. Body is a clear orange-golden hue. Aromas of orange, pine, citrus, noticeable crystal malt, some tangerine. Fresh smelling with some light esters in the background. Flavors are bready, malty, caramel, grainy, dry, light citrus (cascade or centennial?) , tangerine, medium bitterness and a touch astringent. Medium to lively bubbles.

On tap at the brewpub. Pours copper with a decent off-white head and a citrus aroma. There is a hearty caramel malt flavor with a serious hop bitterness that leaves a citrus and pine taste on the palate.

Draft. Amber beer with a cream colored head. Grapefruit and light pine aroma. Pine and grapefruit flavor with light tropical fruit and light graininess. Medium bodied. Good bitterness. Pine and earth lingers with grapefruit rind and grain.

Pours a deep golden yellow, nose is loaded with hops, very juicy nose. Taste is moderately dry, good caramel backbone to hold up to the bitterness, and tons of juicy and citrusy finishing hops.

Tap at the brew pub. Pours a mostly clear Orange amber with a creamy white head. Great citrus hop nose with hints of caramel malts. A pretty tasty ipa.

Clear dark golden with a fizzy white head. Citrus hops aroma and taste with a mild sharp bitterness and a crisp finish with lingering grassy hops taste.
