Jan 14, 2009 Another good IPA offering from Sierra Nevada. Citrus hops in the nose and more grapefruit in the flavor. Fairly bitter and somewhat sweet. Very good.

Jan 9, 2009 Got this one at New Vintage.
Nice golden amber color with good clarity. Creamy head that dissipated quickly but left enough to leave some good lacing. Wonderful hop aroma with a woodsy note.
The hop bitterness swept through my palate and left me wanting another swallow. Well balanced with some caramel malt flavors. Nothing quite like a beer brewed with fresh hops.

Jan 8, 2009 12th release 2008 wet hop. Nice aroma woody with fresh hops not very aromatic. Dark copper color great lace off white head. Earthy bitter and full in the mouth reminds me of a double red ale. Bitter all over the tongue but not too bitter. Nice balance. Delicious beer.

Jan 8, 2009 Pours a copper clear color with a light white head. Aroma is metallic, pine/woodsy. Flavor is nutty pine with metallic notes. Body is light with high carbonation. A good hop ale. I like the hops in this.

Jan 5, 2009 Bottle. Pours a hazy dark copper with a pillowy off-white head. Lots of heavy lacing. Nose is sweet citrus, slightly astringent, resiny, with some fruity esters poking through. Taste is sweet and citrusy but a bit aspiriny as well, with a toasty malt character in there also. Mouthfeel is lively but not too carbonated, medium-full body. Very nice.

Jan 5, 2009 12th release, similar to Bigfoot although not as potent and satisfying. Not worth $6 for a 24 oz bottle.

Jan 4, 2009 Pour gave an amber copper hue. Thick frothy white head. Fresh citrus with some maltiness on your nose. Medium bodied. Good balance of hops, sweet malt, caramel, and a good finish. Solid.
