3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap. The pour was very light copper in color with a super short white head that created average lacing. The aroma was nice with some soft citrus, floral and a bit of pine hops. The flavor was a combination of the aforementioned hops and some spice and malt. A thin bodied, easy drinking IPA.

There is a decent malt background that is topped off by a hop presence that is citrusy, but almost delicate. It is a bit different from most west-coast IPA’s, definately worth trying.

This was a surprising IPA with some alight citrus like flavors. a hoppy finish but drinkable.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Color is a bright gold with good carbonation and a tight white head. Aroma is a floral hop scent. Taste is crisp and bitter. Starting with lighter medium body it goes down with a crisp easy feel. Finish come in bitter with a nice malty grain taste. After taste is more bitterness and a floral hop flavor. Overall its a very good IPA that leans on the bitter side.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours clear golden yellow with a creamy one-finger head with good retention and lacing. Flowery hops aromas, but not over the top. Hops dominate the flavors as well, but caramel malts and spiciness are evident. Light to medium body, generously carbonated, and citrusy hops aftertaste. Pretty standard IPA.

Bottle, my 100th IPA rating. Pours brass color with thin offwhite head. The aroma is citrus with some woody and herbal notes. The flavor is honeyish malts with citric and earthy hops. Medium bitterness with a somewhat dull finish. Very textbook, but easy to drink.

(11/4/08) Bottle at some place called "Sneak Joint" in Mission Beach, San Diego, that is standing where Liar’s Club used to be. Slightly hazy deep golden color. Aroma of hops, citrus hints and a bit of malt. Sweetish malty flavor at first that continues hoppy and bitter with pine and light floral and citrus notes. Medium-bodied. Not bad.

Bottle thanks to Robert at Stateline. Poured a bright copper color with a nice aroma of hop, and citrus. Taste was an ordinary IPA but not as much hop kick as I enjoy. Very Drinkable.
