3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pint on tap. I agree with description, for the most part. Golden yellow color, bright, good lacing, no head. It’s a scuttlebutt, tho. Light aroma, a little grainy. Cheap isn’t the right word, but modest, maybe. Very dry taste, I think I like the creamier, fuller, IPAs I’ve had more than this one. Pilsener drinkers will like this better than me. Not bad, though.

Tap @ O.H.S.O. Pours a clear, golden appearance with a white head. Resiny, piney, fresh herbal hoppy, somewhat spicy aroma. Very spicy and resiny, ganja, very piney, earthy flavor. Kick ass stuff.

Pitcher for happy hour on draft at OHSO, Phoenix. Very enjoyable; a friend had a pitcher of his own and said the same. Aroma jumps out at you. There’s strong, bold flavor here - hoppy, floral, citrus (grapefruit), with a nice dry finish.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Draft @ Ohso. Clear golden orange with a white head and some lacing. Big hop aroma of citrus, pine, cat pee and flowers. Really bitter up front but balanced, clean fermentation and no real alcohol taste. Medium body with average carbonation and dry. Really good IPA, tasted super fresh and tons of hop character.

Outstanding IPA. One of my favorite in all Tucson. This is the closest thing to a West Coast IPA I’ve had in Tucson.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draft at The Hub Tucson. Pours light gold and slightly hazy. Mild piney nose. A little sweet to start then some sticky resin comes in. Dry and bitter on the end. Pretty decent and clean.

Draft at 1702 Tucson. A perfect example of a west coast IPA. Maybe a bit short on aroma, but a sweet, juicy IPA that's remarkably easy drinking. I could drink a lot of this.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draft at OHSO. Pours a clear orange-tinted golden color with a small white head. Aroma and flavor have piney and floral hops, grapefruit, resin, and sweet malts. Medium-bodied, with moderate carbonation and a bitter mouthfeel. Lingering, palate-coating bitterness. Nice, bold IPA.

UPDATED: OCT 26, 2012 Sample at GABF 10/13/2012, thanks to Bluemeow76 for assistance with note-taking. Golden-orange color with a medium off-white head and stringy lacing. Aroma of hops, pine and malt. Medium-bodied with a moderately bitter resiny hops character with notes of malt and fruit in the background. The finish is hoppy with a fruity aftertaste. Above average overall.
