deftim13 (103), California, USA Mar 30, 2008 Tap at PP Carlsbad. Pours light straw gold with no head. Zero lacing as I drink. Smell is grassy hops, grapefruit, mellow malt and peanut . Taste is nice bitter hops, decent malt and light peanut aftertaste. Carbonation is prickly and just right. Overall a nice IPA that is bitter but not overdone.
steview (782), Oceanside, California, USA Jan 7, 2008 growler, smooth and pretty - nearly clear amber pour, amber body with light tan head, very floral aroma and flavor, grapefruit, a small backbone; good and surprisingly strong not surprising in hops, but alcohol. goldtwins (3740), Nesconset, New York, USA Jan 4, 2008 Tap @ Carlsbad. Poured a mostly clear amber color with a large off-white head. Big citrus hop forward aroma. The flavor is of grapefruit juice. Semi-dry finish and moderately bitter. decaturstevo (1278), decatur, Tennessee, USA Dec 25, 2007 On tap PPC. A clean clear red/gold pour with a creamy white head. Hops dominate the nose. Very solid IPA full flavored hop profile. A red semi sweet malt presence help to make this a very balanced beer. Carbonation is good palate is full. A very solid IPA clean across the board and easy to drink. The lack of warmth may allow this beer to sneak up on you. badlizard (1524), San Diego, California, USA Dec 12, 2007 On tap at Pizza Port. Clear golden amber with a fizzy white head. Grapefruit and pine aroma. Good strong pine taste, bitter bite, and a smooth finish.
