Growler, 06/10/2013, thanks Mac! Pours dark burnt amber, thick creamy white head leaves behind a solid sheet of lacing as it dies down. Aroma is soft grapefruit and orange, lightly sweet caramel and bready malts. Taste follows suit, malts taking on a more earthy quality. Medium body, smooth and highly drinkable. Decent, nice west coast IPA.

Golden amber color with a lasting off white head. Huge hop resin nose with nice grapefruit notes. Big thick beer with lots of hop resin, candied grapefruit rind, orange zest and a strong malt backbone underneath to balance it out. This drinks almost like a IIPA. Long hop resin finish. This is a very nice, very big IPA.

Appearance: Deep Gold with a cream colored head.
Aroma: Grapefruit and pine resin.
Flavor: Malt then citrus, then alcohol then back to malt and citrus.
Palate: Full bodied with moderate carbonation.
Overall: A nice malty IPA. I enjoy having a well hopped beer that is more than just a hop bomb.

Bottle - Pours clear light amber with a foamy white head. Nose is caramel sweet malt and muted pine hops. Smells old. Tons of sweet honey malt in the taste, with muted pine hops and a long malty finish. Medium body with nice carbonation. A real disappointment.
