Aug 19, 2008 Orangish-amber pour with strong fluffy white head. The nose is pretty robust...pine and citrus PNW hops. The flavors are the initial hop pine resin and citrus fruit pretty well balanced by the crystal malt caramel and toffee sweetness. Smooth and easy-drinker.

Aug 18, 2008 (Bottle, Akkurat, Stockholm, 16 Aug 2008) Pale amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, floral, fresh nose with orange peel, mandarin and apricots. Fruity, floral taste with notes of mandarin, orange, resin, grapefruit and a slightly grassy, floral finish. A fresh citrussy bitterness comes creeping after a while, balanced by a hint of grain. Medium body, fairly dry. Lovely hop character with stunning balance. Lovely beer!

Aug 15, 2008 Bottle.Medium sized white head that mostly diminished, fair amount of lacing, hazy, visible carbonation, and a straw yellow and orange hue. The aroma consisted of malt, floral and citrus hops, some pine, grapefruit, and some spicyness. The flavor was malt, hoppy, pine, grapefruit, caramel, lightly bitter, and a semi-dry finish. The mouthfeel was tingly and this is a medium bodied IPA. A good IPA with a lingering hoppy aftertaste, worthy of a try, but not an IPA that I will revisit as it was just a little too hoppy tasting for my liking as I am not a "hophead".

Aug 10, 2008 Sampled from a 22 oz brown bottle this beer poured a bright orange-amber color with a huge and towering orange-white head that is still there 1/2 an hour later. The aroma was a lovely mix of resin, pine and grapefruit - moderately sweet. The flavor was sweet and tangy with robust notes of pine, resin and grapefruit and a solid nut and caramel malt base. The finish is long, piney and fruity. Just a touch harsh and bitter towards the finish as it warms. Lovely.
