Lagunitas Sirius Ale

Clear copper with a fluffy white head. Nice citrusy nose, fairly sweet. Rather bitter, with a lot of pine and grapefruit. Nice sweetness, a bit like shortbread. Good, creamy mouthfeel.

Has a very nice head on the pour with lacing that sticks around....Colour is of new copper....aroma is of summer sunshine with a whiff of pine needles....Lots of IPA like qualities in the taste but smoother on the bitterness and maybe more emphasis on malt/spice....Is a very tasty and drinkable brew that i would most positively recommend!! --Music: Odeed ’live’ on Richmond Radio--
..i could drink this quite often!

Pint at PP Carlsbad with my friend, Tete. Light orange color. Small head, but nice small bubbles. Typical mild IPA. Kind of average score for IPAs I’ve tried lately. Very drinkable, would buy again if there isn’t something new to try (There’s always something new)

Mild citrus hop noest. LIte copper with a sticking white head. Notes of alcohol, hops, dry fruit flavours. Sour, with a bitter dry finish.

A hiigh-gravity cream ale, huh? Color me intrigued. Pours a soft sunrise orange with a creamy off-white head. Pretty steady carbonation. Laces randomly, and with no real beauty. Sweet, as expected, aromas with mango and rainbowed gumball character. Fllavors pack a wallop of pine resins and mango, along with an alcohol heat. After the swallow the heat intensifies. Creamy mouthfeel, rather sticky on the lips. The throat cries for quarter from the alcoholic heat.

Well, this is the most disappointing Lagunitas I’ve ever had. Pour clear copper with a thick soapy beige head. The aroma is creamy and murky breadiness along with being very sweet and cloying. Medium / full body with quite a bit of carbonation. The flavor starts incredibly sweet and cloying with warming alcohol. The finish has more heat than one would expect for 7.6% - actually I’ve had close to 10% beers from the same brewery that were far more drinkable and less alcoholic tasting. Unfortunately I have now had a bad Lagunitas experience - I hope the next is back up to their usual good quality.

Bottle. Aroma of sweet malt and citrus. Kind of high carbonation. The hop bitterness in this beer and the sweet malt flavors don’t go well together.

Bottle pours amber-blonde with a small, white head w/ good retention. A nice beer, but it seems that all Lagunitas beers are different versions of the same beer. Hop presene very similar to their other beers. A hopped up cream ale.
