Commercial Description:
Copious quantities of hops and an assertive alcohol content are the foundation of our best-selling beer. Crystal malts and a blend of Yakima grown Fuggles, Centennial, Cascade, and Ahtanum hops impart a very satisfying balance. This ale is late-hopped in the hop back for added flavor and aroma.

Floral and very herbal. Hoppy. Almost milky, mildly chewy mouthfeel. Lasting, grapefruit juicy bitterness at the finish. A bit thin at the end, but still pretty decent.

12oz bottle. Pours a slightly cloudy amber with 2 finger beige head and spotty lacing. Nose is sweet malt, ripe citrus and juniper. Taste is malt, mild orange peel and mellow resin in the finish. Medium mouth feel. Nothing extreme about this beer, just a decent drinkable IPA.

Draft. A hazy amber beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with grassy notes of hops. The flavor is sweet mlaty and again with grassy notes of hops, leading to a dry grassy finish.

Clear light amber with a frothy sheen. Nice subtle piney hop hebal aroma. Smooth medium body. Good pale malt sweet flavors with tasty pine sap hops. Has a nicely bitter finish. Good ipa here. Draft@ PDX brewpub.

Medium sized tan head, retention is fair with some spotty, stringy lace. Lightly hazy copper hued brew with some floatys dropping out of suspension. Nose is soft with notes of caramel, light citrus and pine, somewhat leafy. Body is medium with a light prickly carbonation, lightly oily on the palate. Almost dry caramel malts, bready, slightly buttery backed up by quiet hop notes of pine and cutrus, earthy and lightly fruity. Lightly sweet malty finish with a delayed hop bite. Thanks Cliff!

On tap at Laurelwood Pizza. Pours a clear golden orange with a lacy off-white head. Medium body and light carbonation. Pine and grapefruit nose, fruit and citrus taste, semi-dry finish.
