Hazy Orange color with a smaller tan head. Instant notes of a floral-hoppy bouquet. Citrus fruity aroma and a sweet grape, hoppy taste. Very drinkable, and the hops actually don’t overpower the other flavors. But a nice crisp, hoppy finish.

This is simply a great beer. Even by Pacific NW standards. Pretty fruity, which I happen to like. But I would stop at two bottles. Taste becomes a tad too alcohol after two--IMHO.

Has the body the 60 minute doesn’t - loved the aftertaste and body in particular. A little stridency in the alcohol takes it away from perfection. I like hops so the criticism of its’ ’hoppiness’ is foreign to me.

Definately a strong alcohol taste in this one. Poured out a copper color with a decent head.

Bottle. Poured deep orange with a thick white head. Lovely floral and citrus aroma. Full hoppy flavour with a big malt taste. Lasting floral finish. A lovely DIPA

Pours amber with white head that dissipates. Hoppy aroma (duh) mostly pine and a bit sour (not in a good way). Smells and tastes a bit off to be honest. A bit of a vinegar aroma/taste to it. Says it was bottled 10April08 so its not that old. Alcohol comes through a bit. Pretty disappointing. I guess I’ll have to try and find it on draught next time I’m on the east coast, maybe it will taste better?!

Pale copper pour. Settles to a decent head with good lacing. Nose is of pine and citrus. Taste recapitulates the nose, and adds some grapefruit. Very nice, silken mouthfeel. Aftertaste brings back the grapefruit.
