May 8, 2008 This one was just too hoppy for me. It was a good one to check out but nothing about it jumped out at me. It’s like the Ninkasi beers, just way overly hopped.

Apr 29, 2008 From the 2006 release - This is quite a delicious IPA. I love it when I pop a top and the aroma quickly fills the air with citrusy goodness, fresh and very clean, with a bitter bite initially on the palate, this beer really takes hold of your palate, but is smoothed out with a strong malt backbone to hold everything together.

Feb 7, 2008 Dark amber color with a frothy 2 finger head,nice lacing.Great smell of cannabis bud tilled in a great Pacific NW Douglas Fir forest. Great taste starts with a caramel sweet maltiness followed by a juicy hop bud bitterness. Big malt and hop flavors here. 21406

Dec 7, 2007 A seasonal favorite of mine. Poured a deep ruby amber copper body with a mild creamy white head. Scent of sweet bouncing hops and IT quality malt balance. Sticky, piny, and full of grapefruit flavor. Palate bruising and I love it!

Oct 20, 2007 Thank God this is available again. Cloudy amber appearance with strong citrus aroma.
Heavy on the palate with powerful citrus flavor and a fresh mouth feel that makes you want to drink a lot of it! In the past I have only had this in the bottle but It was one of the featured brews at our local Oktoberfest so I experienced it on tap this year. One of the very best IPA’s I have ever had.

Sep 7, 2007 Pours a cloudy brownish/red. The nose has a very strong scent of sweet ripe cherries. But the flavor is not so sweet. Slight bitter taste with a heavy, earthy, leafy tone. Definite influence from the mass of hops used to produce tis one. Overall it is good, rich and hearty.

Jul 16, 2007 Bottle from LarryPitonka trade prior to the ’06 Hard Liver. Fiery orange, slightly hazy, off-white frothy head, fades to film. Citrus zest and pine dominate aroma. The mor eit warms orange peel is even more evident. No malt to speak of. Flavor much the same, dominated by citrus zest, needs alot more malt to balance it out. Aroma carries this w/o a doubt. Well done.

Jul 7, 2007 This and The Abyss are Deschutes best IMO. This pours amber, nice frothy head. Flavors are citrusy grapefruit, lots of hops. Flavors are the same, perhaps with some orange peel, cream, grapefruit. Creamy refreshing mouthfeel. I can’t wait if they reinitiate this brew. Fantastic one.
