Oct 9, 2009 this is a unique beer, aroma is peppery grass, like cut arugula, also has the Lagunitas house candied dry mango aroma. Very clear and light gold for such a big beer. The pure white tight head fades quickly but can be easily resurrected with a few swirls. Simultaneously bitter and sweet in notes which are easily separated almost as if on different scales. Normally a new beer in a favorite style like this reminds me of another - not so here

Oct 8, 2009 22oz bottle in Seattle. Well done, well balanced DIPA. This had more grapefruit characteristics that I tend to enjoy.

Oct 8, 2009 Bomber. Clear golden color with frothy head that thinned. Huge aroma of sweet citrus hops, slightly floral, notes of grapefruit. Very grassy and citrusy tastes in a hoped out brew. Lingering bitter finish.

Oct 6, 2009 Bottle. Awesome. Orange-brown pour, with off-white head that leaves nice islands. Smells....like you’d expect an IPA to. Citrusy with a biting, hoppy scent. No lack of hops here. It does a great job of balancing the bitterness while having a bit of wheaty, "farmhouse" flavor at the same time. It’s almost as though the bitterness is a background...it’s there, but it’s not "in your face" and the only thing you taste. Very, very good beer.

Oct 4, 2009 28/08/2009. Lunch break at Beervana 2009. Shared a 750ml bottle with friends. The comment "It smells like diff oil" will always stand out... stoopid, yes, but it feels manly to drink it. Like working on your car, or bike... whatever. Great IIPA, ridiculously drinkable and without loosing its ridiculousness.
