COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
At the height of the heat in the heart of the summer, we felt that the only cure was a raging mouthful of fresh hops and malt. Caution: May remove enamel from teeth. This is Lagunitas IPA pumped up by about 30%!

Pours a golden orange color (almost like a rich honey). Small light tan head. Smells like pineapple and citrus. Taste of hops, pineapple, grapefruit, and slight pine flavor. Awesome IPA. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Pours an amber red rusty color with a nice mocha head. Nose is sweet with a fresh citrus hoppy aroma. Taste is bitter sweet with citrus and strong pine. Full of flavor and quite easy to drink. Finish is also bitter sweet, with the citrus lingering. Nice DIPA. Quaff Score 8 / 10

Pours an amber red with an off white head and sweet aroma of hops and pine. Taste is bittersweet, lots of hops, pine, citrus, and light caramel with a strong bitter finish. Excellent DIPA

marv3mania (67) - Lansing, Michigan, USA - APR 24, 2013
12 oz. bottle poured into tulip glass. Appearance is a slightly hazy golden-orange with moderate off-white head which dissipates pretty quickly. Aroma is a lot of citrus, especially grapefruit and orange. There is also a slight whiff of malt. The taste is a good balance of hops and malt. There is a citrus flavor which reminds me of grapefruit rind. Smooth, crisp feel without being too light. Another solid Lagunitas beer.

Pours gold with a skinny white head. Didnt last long and left a lasting lace. Nose is big citrus, slight honey, cereal. Palate is smooth, crisp bubbles. Starts sweet, and ends with a nice mellow bitter. Abv is well hidden. Very nice ipa. -Fish!

blackflag321 (312) - Lansing, Michigan, USA - APR 18, 2013
Draft with a meal (buffalo chicken salad). Smells like fresh hops, but not a hop bomb on the palate. Slightly carbonated palate; a bit of citrus and earthiness. Pretty good.

Bright orange color with small white head and nice lacing. Aroma and flavor are full of great bitter hops with a little fruitiness and balanced with a nice malty finish. Good overall and great price as always from Lagunitas
