Draught. Nice white creamy cap. Gold colour. Good hop presence in nose. Floral and citrus. Taste is very flavorful of both floral and grapefruit. Enjoyable beer.

On tap at the Parkway in Tacoma: A surprisingly tasty selection from Georgetown Brewing, since Manny’s is so "meh." This one’s fragrant with nice, dank, hoppy notes. Floral and chewy. I’m interested in revisiting this one.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 Dogbrick (4842) - Columbus, Ohio, USA - APR 3, 2012
Sample at the Tap House Grill in Seattle. The beer pours a hazy golden color with a medium creamy white head that dissipates slowly to a film. Sticky patches of lacing on the glass. Aroma of fragrant hops and malt. Medium body with flavors of floral hops, pine and malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a hoppy aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 carboloader (577) - Houston, Texas, USA - MAR 16, 2012
On tap at Rory’s in Edmonds. What an amazing surprise this one was. Pours almost neon hazy bright orange. Fascinating aroma of tangerines and peaches which immediately makes it stand out to me. One gulp and I wish I could drink this every single day. A truly amazing citrusy bitter concoction that is wonderfully balanced (if that even makes sense as an IPA) and drinkable. What a find! I later had it at two other Seattle area locations and it was equally amazing each time.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 yespr (22205) - Copenhagen O, DENMARK - MAR 9, 2012
From tap at Taphouse Grill. Pours hazy oange with a small white head. Aroma is cirrusy and grapefruity hoppy. Slid bitter, grapefruity dense and light peachy. Smooth on the decline, direct on the start. Smooth fruity and dry far finish.

On tao at 8oz burger bar. Nice piney and caramel nose. Taste was balanced between hop bitterness and sweetness. Good stuff.

Bronze bodied, not much head. Nice bitter hop nose--I would say Chinook or Centennial. Very leafy presence and this integrity is consistent in the flavor as well bitter balanced with some malt sweetness, but this is almost entirely about the hops. An IPA that pairs well with food, and is quite sessionable. What I would call a rainy day ESB. Delightful bitter PNW hop finish,
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 michaelinwa (207) - Bothell, Washington, USA - JAN 6, 2012
Good hop aroma. Piney, resinous hop flavor, with a long, lingering bitter finish. Good flavor, but overly bitter for me.

Draught at Terra Plata Seattle. Really nice IPA with good aroma and hoppy body. Light orange. Decent malt that is balanced.

Totally not expecting the incredible hop profile I was goign to get here but my first adventure into a local Pacific Northwest IPA on this most recent trip to Seattle. Not dissappointed. Orange aroma and pine bitter finish with a really tasty medium bodied malt backbone. Love the hop action here.
