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%!

Slightly cloudy honey color - smells like sweet hops. Decent head- strong initial taste of hops and slightly bitter. Decent IPA

Bottle. Unclear amber-like. Sweet and grassy nose. Flavour is kind of caramel sweet with a dry bitter finish. A very simple and boring beer

I wanted to try an IPA, but didn’t know where to go. So I chose this one, based on the good things I’ve herad about it. Man, it was good. Smell is really strong and faintly of orange. Pours a dark amber color with no head to speak of. Taste is very strong, so you know what your drinking. Would buy this IPA again.

Almost an imperial ipa. Very hoppy to the point of overwhelming,and I am a hophead. Nice hoppy aroma, not much of a head with little lacing. Probably not one I would return to often. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

In a word, Bold. Upon the first sip, you are immediately impressed by the attack of malt and hop. This beer pours amber copper with little head. That should already give you a hint of what’s coming. The finish is not as impressive but overall, this is a great beer.

Lots of fruit that just pops out at you. I think it could be a little bit more balanced flavor wise, but my buddy who does not drink IPA’s loved it, so go figure. Overall a great so-cal IPA with lots of hops and lots of citrus flavors. Nice change-up if your used to drinking Stone or Bear Republic.

Pours with a hazy amber color. good head retention. As you would expect the flavor of this beer was totaly dominated by the hops. A good beer although I would like a little more balance. If you are a Hop Head this beer is for you.

Hops presence from start to finnish, aroma is passion fruit, resin, grapefruit. Taste is a explosion of bitterness that linger for a long time. Nice beer
