Hoppy, sweet and delicious. Aroma is hops, sour and mold. A great way to toast the new president, as I had this on inauguration eve. Bright, orange with a small white head. Sticky lace. Pine cirtus and grapefruit in the flavor. Coats the mouth, and finish is long and sweet, then bitter. A truly great brew.

Jan 28, 2009 Fragrant hop aroma, which is a good hint of the flavor to follow. The flavor is as close to a perfect representation of American hops as I’ve tasted. Citrus and pine are right up front, maybe Cascade/Centennial/Columbus? Somehow it’s not super bitter. A pleasure to drink.

Jan 25, 2009 good ipa, I can’t say it blew me away or anything like that but this was a good beer I would definitely drink it again. Could have used a bit more bite but it this was pretty good

Jan 24, 2009 Gift from Nathan. Pours amber with a nice white pillow on top. Sweet citrus and hop aroma. Very well balanced beer. Smooth and subtle at start with the sharpness of the hop bite towards the end. Excellent.

Jan 24, 2009 On tap at Father’s office in LA. Originally rater 4.2, bumped to 4.6. Grapefruit juicy hops on the nose. Great complimenting malt character to balance it out on the nose and flavor. Not too abrasive like many IIPAs. ONe of the best in its style no double. Very dangerously drinkable, sould have this all night. The flavor is more astringent than the aroma but still great.

does not count  Jan 24, 2009 Golden yellow to copper color with creamy white head. Great lacing. Powerful hop flavor with pine and floral scents. Very simple and nearly perfect.
