CaptAnkeny (13), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA May 3, 2008 Only sampled in bottles, but still find it to be very hoppy, aromatic, and on the darker side of IPA’s and definitely a good kick after each taste of the first couple of pints.
I used to think, though, it was a much better brew than I find it now. Still tasty and among the best of any beers available in Lost Vegas, Nerdvada.
If only I lived in the Pacific NW.
zappafan99 (312), Rock Hill, South Carolina, USA Sep 3, 2008 Taste 9/8 bottle(date?) Looks:Amber/copper with nice clingy foam Aroma:Mix of various hops and some nice sweet malt. Floral,soapy, pine. Taste:Medium bodied, full range of hops . Good malt balance.Not alcoholic. Quite good. arondee (64), USA Aug 24, 2008 Poured a tan/orange color with a fluffy white head. Honey malt, and floral scents in the aroma. It’s bitter but not overly. Better than most IPA’s but it might be a little bitter for some people. DuffMan (1939), Calgary, Alberta, Canada Aug 24, 2008 Clear orange amber, orange-kissed puffy head. resinus hop aroma, citrus oils, sweet. sweet caramel malt platform with a mostly resinous, but also fruity hop character. Finish is long and bitter. 1010 (20), Marysville, Ohio, USA Aug 23, 2008 Pours a light tan color with a small white head. Has a hoppy aroma and taste, but not many layers. Would probably pass this up for other IPAs mabel (1633), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 21, 2008 [1605-20080816] 355mL bottle. Aroma has a bit of citrus sweet lemon peel. Hazy, light brown orange body with quick white bubbles. Bit of hoppy grains flavour with some dark yeasty malt. Medium body. Good.
