| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Jun 30, 2009 hazy orange with a small white head. very pleasant aroma of orange, lychee, grapefruit. i could smell this all day. tastes exactly the way it smells. a light refreshing palate that is in NO way astringent with the abv and hop addition considered. a bit of lemon-lime in there too. lagunitas is really starting to perfect the art of the hop(with all the hopped up beers released they ought to be!). this is one of the best ipa’s i’ve had in a long time. excellent. tokyogoat (507), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 30, 2009 Poured a nice golden with an orange tint.
Nose is huge on citrus hops, grapefruit, tangerine, lime zest.
Taste is very crisp, bright grefruit and orange flavors. Wheat adds some nice body to keep bitterness from just washing out. hopdog (5556), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA

Poured a medium and slightly hazy golden color with an averaged sized white head. Aromas of juicy oranges, pine and floral hops. Tastes of citrus, floral hoppiness, some toasted graininess, and a lighter sweet caramel in the finish. joshwilfong (778), Cleveland, Ohio, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 30, 2009 golden yellow with white head. great citrusy and herbal hop nose. some hop bitterness before a very pleasant hop flavor of herbs and citrus with some spice before some malt balance before a dry finish. a very nice west coast ipa Dough77 (774), Aurora, Illinois, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 30, 2009 Incredibly drinkable, especially on tap. Big hops coming through in both aroma and flavor with a nice maltiness to it. More hop then wheat, but the wheat certainly doesnt keep quiet. fakepurseninja (777), Washington, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jun 30, 2009 Nice light amber orange body with a soft white head. Big malty giant vertebrae that lines the mouth with light grainy caramel malt character. Citrus and light sweet fruit very evident in the floral hop lineup. Pine and grass. Always a big event when I get a new Laggy to try. duff (5475), Surrey, Greater London, England

Pretty hoppy, as you’de expect from Laguntias, but also a little too boozy as i’ve come to experience from these guys. Pine, citrus, grapefruit, lychee. A summery hop bomb. Theis (3740), Denmark
