On tap @ RR. Orange-copper color with a thick tight white head. Robust hop aroma, very floral, light citrus notes. Taste reflects the aroma - more rounded off hop character, lingers on the palate well. A nice IPA, and quite different from Blind Pig.

On tap at Port Brewing in Carlsbad. Pours deep gold with a smooth white head. Pine and grapefruit in the hop aroma, very floral. Palate starts with a soft caramel and bready note, but quickly builds into a floral juicy hop finish. Very solid IPA.

On tap. Pours with a large, and long lasting white head covering a clear yellow body. Great lacing. ARoma of orange and lots of C-Hops. Taste is bitter and a bit malty. Bitterness presents itself as lemon and orange. Creamy mouthfeel with light carbonation.

Yellow/amber slightly cloudy pour with diminished head. Fruity nose and flavor with a bitter end.

~Pours a light golden copper colorwith sticky looking white head. ~Grapefruit hop scent with sweet malts. ~Citrusy flavor with sweet malts. Big bitterness at end. ~Sticky medium feel with big bitter finish that quickly ends. ~Nice IPA. Seems to be lacking a bit on hoppy flavor.
