Golden-amber colour. Toasty, woody, grapefruity aroma. The palate is strongly woody, with plenty of toasty, whole wheat bready notes to back it up. Citrus is light and lemony, adding a refreshing note to the finish to cut through what is almost too much crystal malt. Well-balanced example.

(12oz bottle) Medium off-white head atop a clear amber body. Aroma is medium sweet, grapefruit, some caramel, light floral, lemon. Taste is medium sweet, grapefuit, some wood, caramel, toast, light lemon, peach. Moderate bitterness. Soft medium body with some chewiness. Tasty, and a fine example of the style.

On tap at Pike Pub, Seattle. Copper, beige head. Earthy hop grapefruit, cascadey, resinous. Reasonable in mouth. Intense IPA hop finish with more grapefruit. Very astringent. Good intensity. Malts disappear relatively quickly to leave astringent earthy hop finish. It’s fine if a little basic and simple

Poured a hazy dark amber with an averaged size off white head. Citris and piney aromas. Piney tasting. Medium bitter finish. An OK IPA.

Tap@Pike. Pretty solid stuff. Some lychee and grapefruit. A blend between English and American style IPA’s. Soft, lightly bitter and generally pretty tasty.

Bottle... Hazy orange ale with a small, creamy, white head. Nose of citrusy, floral, piney hops... the whole ball of wax. The flavor is resiny and piney. Moderately bitter with notes of toffee and grapefruit. Medium-bodied with a watery mouthfeel and lively carbonation. Lengthy, bitter, clover finish. Thanks go out to scraff for sharing.
