Bottled. Very light fragrance with a little fruit. Gold in color. An easy to drink beer but not unique nor huge. Good IPA perhaps for folks who are entering the micro beer tastes.

Aug 18, 2008 Dark golden color, small dissipating white head leaves just a cover. Light aromas, a little malty and slight hoppiness. Taste is bland and not too hoppy for an IPA. Good but uninteresting.

Aug 16, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours a clear dark gold with one finger beige head and decent lacing. Nose is pine and citrus. Taste is sweet citrus hops upfront that fades into a weird metallic bitter finish. Medium mouth feel. Starts off great but that metal taste killed it for me.

Aug 15, 2008 Updated: Aug 20, 2008Malted hop aroma, faint grassy smell. Flavour comes out weak...like hitting a brick wall and just sliding down. Mouthfeel is a bit slick and medium bodied. Some fine bitter notes in the aftertaste; but comes across more like a watery Pale Ale than a proper IPA. File under "meh..."

Aug 14, 2008 This is a respectable beer, but it just doesn’t have enough hops to satisfy - something that is rarely said about west coast IPA’s. Very drinkable though.

Aug 7, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Pours an amber color with a light white head. Aroma of hallmark IPA scents, e.g. citrus and floral, though in this case, not overwhelmingly so. This IPA has a more airy character and seemed a little lighter bodied than other IPAs on the market. Balance b/w hops and malts was fairly balanced with just enough hoppy flavor to taste more like an IPA. I think it is fairly underrated and a pretty tasty brew.
