Dec 28, 2008 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.

Dec 27, 2008 The next best thing to rolling in a giant pile of very freshly harvested hops. Flowery, earthy, bitter and pleasant. Nice one.

Dec 25, 2008 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.

Dec 24, 2008 Nice golden pour with great head and retention on the glass. Obvious citrus fruity hop aromas as well as green apple and pineapple notes. Slightly puckering body, but not overwhelming. Rounded mouthfeel a little bit, which helps to deomnstrate the balance shown with a smoothed out creaminess. The piney citrusy and warming hops presence provides a quehnching taste. I liked this one.

Dec 24, 2008 Bottle that came via Beermerchants/Cave Direct cheers Phil L. Pours golden moving to a very slight amber colour with a slight haze and large white head. This is punishingly dry and hoppy at first with a bitterness that clings to the back and roof of your mouth like an obstinate stalacmite. There is a sweetness to this beer, but this is slapped down by a youve been tangoed burst of grapefruit complete with pith, crikey its tangy. This is a very good beer. A7 A4 F7 P4 OV15 3.7
