Jun 1, 2005 [At GABF 2004] A golden beer with a small white head. The aroma is nicely fresh and dominated by hops and grass, while the flavor is sweet and very grassy. Nice.

May 30, 2008 Bottled at Oliver Twist, Stockholm. Cloudy amber, creamy head. Rich lychee aroma. Quite dry with clean rounded mouthfeel,. Highly carbonated, making the body seem more spritzy than firm, but it also dilutes the hop aromatics. Still the malt character is negligible, as this beer is all about the grapefruity hops. Long very bitter finish.

Aug 7, 2007 (Bottle 65 cl) Courtesy of markgugs. Pours a slightly hazy dark golden with a small, off-white head leaving some laces. Fresh grapefruit notes in the nose. Medium-bodied with a light, underlying malt sweetness, but otherwise completely dominated by a distinct grapefruitish bitterness. A bit soapy. A fresh west coast IPA but also solidly bitter. 050807

May 31, 2002 Pretty much hop juice. A hint of malt gives it a little balance, but it really isn’t about balance. A fun beer, mind you, but these Cali IPAs need to mellow out a bit.
