4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 papajohn (1238) - San Diego (Mira Mesa), USA - MAR 31, 2006
UPDATED: OCT 21, 2011 5 oz taster at the new Scripps Ranch Brewery: Light amber/golden color with a moderate white head. Aroma is citrus and lightly piny. Flavor starts lightly fruity sweet then come the hops; grapefruit, a little pine and a subtle dry orange rind finish. Balance is definitely on the bitter side, but well done. Medium bodied and smooth with a grapefruit after burp. Also got to meet Jack White (owner/brewer) and Yuseff Cherney (head brewer) who may have sold Tom Nickel his first home brew kit. 10/21/11: My go-to-beer at Point Loma Seafoods.
