Golden orange in color... Aroma of citrus hops, grapefruit... Flavor of citrus, light malts, nice bitter finish on the palate... Fairly dry, pretty solid IPA, reminds me a bit of Lagunitas IPA

womencantsail (6896) - Garbage Grove, California, USA - OCT 13, 2012
Slightly hazed golden orange with a white head. Semi sweet aroma of sugar and fruity hops. A good tangerine and orange quality, a bit of a floral note, and very mild peach. Tastes of sweet peach and citrus with a light sugar and malt sweetness. Some tangerine, orange, and mild pine bitterness.

Terminus (2892) - Las Cruces, New Mexico, USA - JUL 18, 2012
Tap at brewpub in Downtown SF-June 2012-pours dark orange with a small white head and sparse lacing. nose is big pine, grapefruit, straight up C note hops here! big grapefruit bomb all the way! flavors are very dry grapefruit all with a big bitterness-lingering piney prickly bitterness. very firm and pungent bitterness without being abrasive. however, there is quite a bit of malt profile here-sugar cookie. This balanced the beer nicely. this is a very solid IPA i would drink alot of in SF.

Deep golden-amber pour with a thin white head. Really great aroma. Bright citrus aroma with a bit of grapefruit and some light sweet maltiness as well. Simple but quite aromatic and lovely.

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.

OldGrowth (2107) - North Carolina, USA - APR 30, 2012
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.

BMan1113VR (7380) - Los Angeles, California, USA - MAY 3, 2011
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.
