A very nice beer indeed. Pours clear golden color with a big fluffy head that leaves lace. Smells of spicy & floral hops (of course) The flavor is dominated by the spiciness of the Amarillo’s but there is also a great fruitiness going on here with some grapefruit bitterness, surprisingly though there is a sweetness in this beer that may be a little much for me.
Drinks easily, I had a Bud-only drinker share this bottle with me and he never once had a problem with the smoothness of the beer.
Overall it is nice, not sure I would buy a six pack, but I would throw it in a mix and match no doubt.

Nov 28, 2008 the term ’floral’ sometimes gets thrown around on any beer that smells of hops. but as far as im concerned, there is a specific hop aroma character that defines that adjective -- and this is it! huge lacing as well. this has the real kind of freshness that you see in two hearted and real world class IPAs, i think this is actually underrated.

Oct 28, 2008 Bottle. Poured a clear yellow with a one finger off white head. Aroma of malt and some resin. Flavor was very malty, with a faint bitter finish. Overall, this was a decent beer, but the flavor doesn’t stack up to other ipas.
