Apr 25, 2008 Growler courtesy Beerlando. Medium amber reddish tan with a thick off white head. Spicy grapefruit hop aroma. Really assertive fresh hops, great aroma. Big malty taste with a nice hop bitterness. Very balanced taste, not too much malt nor hops, yet still powerful. Dry citrus tang in the aftertaste. Another great beer from Selins.

Apr 25, 2008 Growler courtesy Kramer17801. Pours a clear orange amber color with a foamy, off-white head. Minimal spotty lacing noted. The nose shows big citrus hops, covering oranges, grapefruit, and lemon. Toasted bread and light caramel comprise a nice malty backdrop for the hops to do their thing. The flavor is again quite citrusy and bitter, yet incredibly well balanced. There’s a juiciness to this, almost like the beer was garnished with a splash of fresh lemon and grapefruit. Medium bodied, smooth, and easily quaffable. Not particularly complex, but still a really good IPA.

Feb 25, 2008 Growler from Kramer. Copper pour, faint white head. Aroma is biscuity, citrus and grapefruit. Flavor is citrus, grapefruit and some pine with a bready finish. Medium bodied and lower carbonation but probably cause of a week old growler. Not much to say, citrus, grapefruit, medium bitterness and just a good IPA.

Oct 14, 2007 On tap at the brewpub. The aroma is sweet and hoppy. Taste is hop as well, but not too bitter, actually sort of sweet. Nice.

Oct 5, 2007 Draught at the brewpub. Pours cloudy light amber with retentive off-white head. The aroma is pine and spicy hops, a little bit of sweet muffin. The flavor is spicy hops and a touch of burnt toast. Decent bitterness, some fruity notes, and a warm pine finish. A bit tannic in the aftertaste.

Sep 29, 2007 I’m tasting a dead flat, two-week old growler, but this one has a lot of apricot smell, look and flavor; probably not bitter enough for my taste; but not bad at all.

Sep 17, 2007 On draft at the brewpub, and growlered to go… Very nice piney hop aroma and citrus taste. A tad thin, but overall not a bad IPA. I think the SNAFU IPA was better.
