Commercial Description:
An ode to the Owens Valley and the Highway 395 corridor, this Double IPA is distinctly bolder than out Epic IPA and celebrates the aromas of wild local fresh hops, sage, and juniper.

Hazy meidum copper colored body with a light off white head. The aroma is dank with some grass and wood. There is a little bit of the sage as you continue to smell. The taste has some bright citrus floral hops with a little catty character. The sage certainly comes to play in the finsh.

Dark amber with a lingering frothy head. Strong piney hop and sage smell reminds me of trips to Potholes Wildlife Refuge; the wild sage brush in Central Washington has an awesome floral scent to it. Smooth, creamy mouthfeel. Nice hoppy flavors mirror the aroma with pine sap, sage, juniper, and a light caramel sweetness to round things out. A great ipa here.

Pours a very deep amber/orange with nice off-white head. Sweet malt, floral hops, grapefruit, caramel, herb, and a definite flavor of sage. Complex and full bodied. This stuff is sweet, bitter, and spicy. I am very glad to have tried it.

Bottle from IrishBoy. Thanks!
Pours a thick cheddar orange with a nice head and perty lacin’. Aroma is floral, with grapefruit and orange slightly mixed in. Flavor is a sweet cedar with the sage bangin’ on the door. Alcohol leaves a brief stinging sensation on the tongue but quickly subsides as the flavors take over. Thin mouthfeel, but I like the way the flavors come in waves. Another great hop bomb from my California IPA connection!

Bottle at Naja’s. Pours dark, cloudy orange with a moderate head and spider web lace. Smells nice and hoppy with a lot of the different herbs in the nose as well, sage, etc. Tastes hoppy and bitter up front with the herbs and the sweetness they bring on the finish and that lingers. Full body, semi-syrupy, good carbonation.
