 ROGUE (621), Newark, Delaware, USA
Nov 5, 2009 12oz bottle. Poured a golden toasty brown color with a slight haze and little head, but some lacing on the glass. Aroma is grapefruity hops, a touch of fruitiness, a little malt sweetness. Flavor is nice crisp hop bitterness throughout, with light malt sweetness and grain, bitter hop aftertaste. Mouthfeel is medium to light bodied, with soft texture and mellow carbonation.

does not count  Oct 31, 2009 One of my favorite beers. This is definitely a beer I look forward to on a regular basis. Great taste and flavor along with a solid bitter finish. I find everything to be in the right balance. Does not disappoint.
Stellaaaa (57), Tennessee, USA
Oct 25, 2009 Pours a rich, cloudy yellow with a thick off-white head. It has a fresh, crisp aroma of lemons, hops and malt. It tastes of delicious, sweet malt, citrus and hops. A very well-balanced, flavourful beer. Has a nice mouthfeel that is not watery but not overpowering either.

does not count Oct 24, 2009 A notch belolw Lagunitas IPA but at 2 bucks cheaper a sixer it is a wash. Same grapefruit smell when opened. Carbonation is a bit lighter, but the taste is excellent. NIce bitter with no aftertaste. I heartily approve.

does not count Oct 22, 2009 Awesome IPA! I’ve had this beer a couple of times and enjoyed it every time. At $8 a sixer is a good price. But while staying up in Sunriver, OR for vacation, stocking up at Costco for the week. Saw a case of this for $22 Great price. so I bought 3 cases. One case for vacation and two for back home in Marin County. Hops and carmel done Perfect. Well balanced IPA... bottle conditioned helps with keeping it Real.

Oct 19, 2009 A gift from a friend visiting from Oregon. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy bright golden color with a large yellow-white head that lingered and left great lacing. The aroma was strong sweet grapefruit and pine. The flavor was strong grapefruit and pine with moderate bitterness and a somewhat sweet caramel undertone and a touch of lemon zest. The finish was medium length fruity and piney hops. Fairly full boded. Well done.

Oct 10, 2009 A Mes rate. Gravicask at GBBF.
Bright gold with a slight white collar. Big US hoppage inthe snout with some slight petrol. Fruity hop flavour. Lightly bitter, lots of grapefruit. A hugely drinkable yet restrained and as a result, not quite so entertaining US IPA.
ChristianScheffel (4402), Odense, Denmark
Oct 2, 2009 Cask at GBBF. Golden with a small white head. Weak citrus aroma with grapefruit peel, some caramel in the background. Sweetish citrus flavour that somehow gave me a homebrew feel.
