Bottled 500ml. -from City Beer Store, San Francisco. Orange/golden coloured, medium sized white head that went away slowly, grapefruity hoppy nose. Piney hoppy and fresh citric with touch of spices. Pleasant bitter finish and long-lasting artertaste. Decent IPA.

I’ve had this fresh of the taps at Russian River. One fine IPA. I believe this is one of the best IPA’s around. Great Aroma!

Bottled, thanks Vode! Copper color. Thick juicy hop aroma with pine, orange, lemon and herbs, excellent! Dry bitter flavor with pungent piney, orangey, grapefruity and herbal hops. Excellent fresh hop aroma and flavor!

Draft. Poured golden orange in color with a medium fluffy white head that left fantastic thick sticky lacing on the glass. Aroma of pine, grapefruit, sweet fruit. Nice body... Taste is resiny, with piney hops, grapefruit, caramel. I could drink this all the time. Fantastic.

Bottle from Liquor Mart in Boulder. Pours a hazy gold with super-fine suspended sediment and a fluffy, pitted, white head, and patchy lace. The nose is outstanding: a beautiful blend of "juicy" citric and mildly resinous hops and a candy sugar-like supporting malt note. Medium-bodied and tongue-coating with a significant bitter hopped finish. Citrus hops hug your tongue along with just enough malt sweetness to keep the hops from destroying your palate. The finish is a nice, lingering, slightly resinous, bitter/hoppy parade across the back of your tongue. This is a damned fine IPA. I wish we could get it locally.
