Jun 29, 2009 Pours orange with small head. Aroma is big on hops with some citrus & a tad of fruit. Flavor has some pine, citrus, but overall the bitter takes over & gets balanced by the hops. Not as fresh as I thought it was gonna be.

Jun 28, 2009 22oz bomber served in a shaker pint. Poured a bright gold with a thin white head. Big aroma of piney and citrusy hops. Good hop bite, but the hop flavor was a bit vegetal. Good malt base with some sweetness. Dry hoppy finish. Bottle conditioned. Decent IPA, but that’s not saying much these days.

Jun 12, 2009 Poured a cloudy orange color with a thick white rocky head. Aroma was "green" with a beautiful citrus hop kick. Flavor was full and bright, that green flavor lingers and the hop juiciness is beautiful with a really nice malt balance. This was a fantastic beer.

Jun 9, 2009 Golden with a big and firm white head. Juicy hop aroma of citrus, pine and flowers, with a little alcohol showing. Aggressive hop flavour and bitterness, with a nice touch of crisp and bsicuit-y malt. Lasting pine hop aftertaste and a lovely hop burn in the throat.

Jun 9, 2009 65cl bottle @ Olbutikken, CPH. Thanks to Bluntaholick. Pours a cloudy orange with a full egg white head and lacings. Loads of dry and bitter hops. Mostly exotic but also lots of grassy bitter hops. Medium bodied. Crisp and dry. Nice

Jun 4, 2009 Nice hoppy aroma.....grapefruit, pine, mandarin orange along with a subtle malt presence. Flavor is smooth with pine and grapefruit, followed by some malt and then a moderately bitter finish. Not as fresh as I had hoped (owing to it being several months old) but very good nonetheless.

May 30, 2009 22 oz. bottle courtesy of WeeHeavySD. Pours a hazy golden color with a medium sized dense off white head. The aroma is a mix of citrus, herbal, and floral hops with an underlying sweetness. The flavor has some sweet malts that are there, but are a bit overshadowed by the hops. There is a good amount of grapefruit citrus and some pine. The body is smooth and a little syrupy. Another very good west coast IPA.

May 15, 2009 660ml bottle (Pikkulintu, Helsinki) - shared by oh6gd6 - thanks!
Slightly specky light orange, small sticky head. Huge pleasant mandarin and tinned peach aroma. Very smooth palate - carbonation soft, body sweet and malty. Fairly dominant but pleasant grapefruity hops, which stay for quite a long finish. After just half a pint it wasn’t too monotonous, but it is hard to judge how much more I’d enjoy.
