Bottle. High, creamy, lasting white and lovely head. Hazy thick looking milky orange body. Nutty fruity hoppy aroma. Fresh hops bitterness, apple pear notes, good strong and long bitter aftertaste. Low carbonation.

A delicious and superb IPA. This brewer makes me wish I lived on the west coast. Those hoppy beers over there are so much better than we produce on the east coast. The aroma was perfect. As soon as I cracked the bottle, a huge green wave of hops hit me. Very piney and resiny with alomost a marijuana-ness to it. Pour was a nice light gold with a one finger white head. Taste was all planty hops with a drying bitter aftertaste. Courtesy Secret Santa.

The next best thing to rolling in a giant pile of very freshly harvested hops. Flowery, earthy, bitter and pleasant. Nice one.

Bottle. Shared with Plovmand. Hazy golden body with a small white head. Aroma is fruit, citrus and lots of hops. Taste is grapefruit, hops. The taste is quickly gone. But the bitternes in the end is lasting for a long time. A very good ipa.

Bottle. Cloudy golden colour with a thick, retentive white head. Aroma has citrus (grapefruit mostly) hops, pineapple and some fruity sweetness. Taste is as for aroma with some balancing malts, creamy, thirst quenching with a long hoppy bitter finish. Medium to full bodied. Very drinkable. Great stuff.
