Mar 22, 2009 This pours a golden yellow color with a fluffy white head. Aroma is mainly citrus hops smell. Flavor was bitter, a bit grapefruit and pine, mellowed out by a nice malty backbone. Good IPA but not a hop bomb.

Mar 22, 2009 Draft. I must say, I have been waiting to try this one and it did not disappoint. It pours a nice golden color with an off white head. The nose is huge and full of pine and floral notes. Medium carbonation with a rich, almost sticky mouthfeel. The malt seems sandwiched in between all of the hops, but it works well. Some candy, definite resin and pine, and lastly some floral on the palate. Whew! My tastebuds just got a workout! The finish is reasonably clean with a lingering bitterness. Now this is an IPA!

Mar 22, 2009 Enjoyed via 22oz bomber. Pours a nice deep golden color. Nose is a complex and wondrous blend of hops. On the palate, it exhibits a medium level of body, hops up front, malt in the middle, and then more drying hops on the finish. Overall, dangerously drinkable and a steal at any price.

Mar 21, 2009 Rather intriguing deep banana haze with a suitable topping. Wondrous hoppy aroma with citrus, and grapefruit and pineapple in the mix. Great blend of similar hops in the flavor with a nice finishing bitterness. This is well apportioned, finely crafted iPA.

Mar 20, 2009 Poured from 22 oz brown bomber into pint glass:
Aroma- Grapefruit citrus and pine followed by grassy and a bit of malt.
Appearance - Golden amber and crystal clear. Beautiful slightly off-white head leaves spotty lacing on glass.
Flavor - Gold malt, piney and citrusy hops. Yeasty. A bit of a bite on the finish. Somewhat metallic aftertaste.
Palate - Light to medium. A bit slick at first but finishes remarkably dry and crisp.
Overall - Definitely a full flavor brew. 7% ABV gives it some kick. I could drink a couple of these....at least!

Mar 16, 2009 This was great. On tap at THRASH ZONE, Yokohama Japan. Poured a crystal clear amber haze with a nice hoppy malty citrus nose. Taste was crisp, very hoppy, and refreshing. More, please.
