4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
UPDATED: APR 17, 2013 On tap at Russian River. Orange pour with a white head. Aroma is awesome. Resinous, piney, all simcoe. You can showcase the hops all you want, but if the base beer isn’t good you’re sunk. I think Russian river’s strong point is they make really good base beer. This one was fantastic.

Very clean taste.. the simcoe hops were very nice in this brew.. Russian river does it again.

Poured from a bottle, thanks to the Boise crew. Very hoppy, citrus, grape, slight grain. The body was thin.

Growler. Thanks j! Pours a crystal clear dark amber with a loose creamy white head. Big garlic and ammonia nose, but in a very appealing way. Piney too. Creamy medium body with lively carb. Toast, caramel, garlic and pine mid palate with a long toasty resiny finish. Really nice.

Beautiful deep gold with a frothy white head. Pine forrest aroma - amazing! Pine notes carry over into the flavor with a sumptuous resiny character. Body is moderate - just right for a quenching pale ale. Wonderful beer.
