3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 Reid (1385) - Salem,Oregon, Oregon, USA - MAY 28, 2011
22oz bottle from Roth;s Keizer store. $5.49
Appearance?Typical orange IPA body but the head is large and rocky/thick. off white in colour.
Very nice fruity, sweet hoppy aroma here.More lemon zest that anything.
Taste is again hop not so sour/sweet though more grapefruit style.
Malts somewere? Not too bitter really
Palate is on the thin side even for style but has a nice bitter after taste buzz about it.
Overall though an average IPA..might be better come the 100 degree days of late July and August!

Bomber from Total Wine & More in Stuart, brought home from FLA on spring break. Pours a bubbly golden/yellow. Great lacing. Aroma is very hoppy pine and citrus (grapefruit/orange/mango). Taste is all hops - bitter grapefruit with a lot of woodiness. Quite smooth. Finishes long and bitter. Very nice.

Another of those great shared tasting via Facebook Chat with Strykzone. This poured a clear light amber with a decent sized and very sticky off-white head that laced the glass well. Very clean citrus nose with some light fruit aromas added in. Medium body with a resin mouthfeel. The favor is full very of tasty hops and the finish is long and bitter. This is simply an outstanding IPA..

Thanks to Hayduke for this one and he, his brother Rick, and I shared it via Facebook chat. This poured a hazy copper with moderate carbonation visible and a nice fluffy head. The nose was tangerine, citrus, and caramel and was pleasant if not big. The flavor began with tangerine and dry citrus with subtle hops but they asserted a little more as the beer warmed. Bitterness was definitely noted as was a bit of spiciness. This was a nice West Coast IPA with a hop profile that went from subtle to more assertive. Nicely done.
