Super thanks to stefanje for this fantastic bottle of gold! Pours a hazy orange amber with a huge white head than disappears quickly. As I was pouring the hops just flew out of the bottle....big citrus, pine, fruits and flowers....lots going on in this beer, it was like I unleashed a caged animal. The nose on this beer will be burned into my memory for years to come. Flavor is just as good as the nose. The base is a rather sweet malt flavor, but the hop depth, tropical fruit and spices on this beer integrate so well....fantastic balance for a DIPA. Finish was long I think, but I kept drinking so fast it was hard to tell. After each sip was a, "Damn, this is good beer." Highly recommended. Thanks again Stefan, for making my night so memorable.

22oz bottle. The aroma was of flowery hops, citrus zest, apricot, pale malt, and spices. Poured a clear medium orange color. The head was short and off white with decent retention and lacing. Surprisingly fruity with distinct peach and grapefruit up front supported by pineapple, pale malts, and a hint of clove. The pineapple asserted itself even more toward the end and there was a hint of graham cracker. Ample sweetness mitigated the hop bitterness somewhat, which peaked at about 3-4 out of 10. Good stuff.

22 oz. bottle courtesy of CelticBrew- thanks much for this one, Jim. Pours out a deep amber with just the faintest haze, and a spare, fading off white head and some spotty strands of lace.

Complex aroma with lots of citrus, some spice, yeast, light fruit, floral hops, and I think there’s even a very distant hint of funkiness. Medium body. light carbonation, some astringency, and mildy resinous as well. Flavor solidly supported by sweet maltiness, toffee like, but the bitterness starts quickly and continues to build into a spicy, dry, and long finish. Alcohol is never really apparent, except for the effects.

If nothing else, this is certainly unusual, although I really enjoyed it. It’s almost like a hybrid of an IPA and a saison.

Bomber from South Bay Drug. Slightly hazy orange tinged amber color with a minimal white head that quickly degenerated into a few bubbles. My nose knows there’s a lot of pine in here, but it’s not sure whether there is also grapefruit. It’s a very strong aroma. Very full bodied with creamy carbonation. The flavor is like chewing pine needles, with a little malt sweetness. Finish is quite definitely bitter, but it’s smooth, balanced, not harsh. There’s a lot of hop, it’s just not harshly bitter. Damn, but it’s a fantastic drink.

Pours a bright orange/gold color with a medium off-white head. Aroma is a pine forest. Reminds me of living in Oregon...walking outside leads to an explosion of evergreen tree aromas. Flavor is hops, citurs and pine with a decent amount of malt balancing the taste. Body is medium and pleasant. Overall a very good IIPA...I’ve been very impressed with the beers from this brewpub.
