Jun 29, 2006 Bottle. Pours weak amber, very translucent. Aroma is weak grapefruit. Not looking/smelling good. Lively carbonation. Flavor is surprisingly strong, with a nice bitter rush of grapefruit followed by stinging hops and a touch of orange. Palate is coating. Nice beer; don’t judge a book by its cover (or smell), I guess.

Jun 17, 2006 Bottle. Pours amber with a film of a head. Nose is totally hop laden. I thought this was a complete hop bomb. Piney, resiny and citric. It is bone dry in its start to finish bitterness. If you are a true hophead, you will love this one. I prefer somewhat more balance, but it’s fine for the style. Thanks to wohlfs for the bottle.

May 21, 2006 Picked up a six-pack on a recent trip to oregon. Pours hazy amber with thin head. A bit of yeast at the bottom proves this to be bottle conditioned. Aroma is very freshly hoppy. Contributions from the hops are zesy lemon, citrus, and pine. I’m curious what variety of hops they use. Sweet tasting, medium bodied, very smooth, and nice bitter finish. Superb ipa.
