On tap at Amnesia. One of my favourites of the day. Nice amber body with slight head. Nose is hoppy, pines but also malts and fruits. Taste is hoppy, citrus, grapefruit with maltier notes. Quite bitter in the finish. Well done.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap at the brewpub in Portland, OR. Pours a cloudy, orange-amber colored body with a finger-width, dense and frothy, beige head that dissipates slowly and leaves a nice lacing. Aroma is orange pines and florals with a sweeter caramel malt backing. Some bread, a few resins, and a light spice. Flavor is similar. Orange and citrusy pines with a good amount of florals and a medium sweet caramel malt backing. Some bread, a light earthy spice, and resins as this finishes dry, moderately bitter, and citrusy with some hints of toast. Lengthy aftertaste following a medium body and a moderate carbonation. Overall, a straightforward, but solid IPA. Well hopped with a firm bitterness and a good amount of caramel malts. Not bad.

3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap. This poured a really cloudy muddy orange color with a small white head. Nice hopping in the nose and finish. The fruitiness of the brew tasted a bit muted, i’m still not sure if this is due to the cloudiness or if I just imagine it with cloudy beers, but not as crisp as I was hoping. Still a nice IPA though, but I like their domination IPA better, or whatever its called.

now this is an IPA! The murky brownish body possesed a creamy white head. Sweet citrus and pine on the nose with a piny hop body and light bitter finish.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Pours a luscious, somewhat hazy honey golden with a fairly thick pale orangy-tan head. Aroma is quite evergreen, promising a superior IPA. Flavor is strongly hoppy yet minimally bitter and slightly sweet, with some sour citrus hints. Texture is quite fizzy, leaving behind a nice hoppy tingle.

Hazy murky light brown pour. Piney, citrus hop aroma, very resiny. Taste is huge grapefruit and pine notes, really nice bitterness with a good malt balance. I really liked this one.
