May 21, 2008 A nice IPA though a little flavorful than I expected. Aroma was nice. Strong grassy hops. Pour was a nice medium brown with a thin off white ring for a head. Taste was all grassy hops with a hint of dishwasher soap and a light caramel malt backbone. Very little carbonation brought the score down. Nice beer, but I would take their APA over this.

May 21, 2008 2007 bottle. Pours an amber colour with an off-white head. Aroma is very hoppy - tropical fruits and hops, hops and hops with some soapy notes. Flavour is big with loads of hops - tropical fruits, resin and pine needles - with a good amount of bitterness. Yummy!

May 16, 2008 2007 bottle. Copper to deep amber with a big rocky head. Wonderful citrus aroma, not sharp, but more mellow. Caramel as well. Good citrussy hop bitterness, balancing caramel flavours, still very bitter. Passion fruit flavours add to complexity. A great, harmonious beer that shows great subtlety- the fresh hops really make a difference.

May 12, 2008 Had this a while back on tap at the Brickskeller in Washington DC. Copper amber color with a lacing white head. Aroma is gushing with hops, plenty of citrus (oranges and limes) and a mellow pine aroma. Flavor is excellent, loads of citrus but also a tropical fruit flavor and a real earthy tartness to it. You can taste the freshness of the ingredients in this brew. Great on tap, I hope it’s as good in a bottle.

May 2, 2008 A really awesome beer, aroma is beautifully hoppy with some citrus and pine, faboulus flavor, perhaps not as well balaced stone ipa but i find it a bit more interesting, a really good beer

May 1, 2008 Updated: Jan 30, 2009This beer is excellent. Pours a reddish copper with a thick white head. Aroma is citric, like fresh cut oranges, and as others have said, also has slight hints of what you think might be marijuana. The fresh hop taste is incredible, I found myself looking at my glass after sips and thinking, well done sierra. The hop flavor is perfect and deep, so far this is the best of this style I’ve tasted.

Apr 27, 2008 Beautiful, rich, sweet flavor. The hops are not overpowering. This might be the best beer of all time.
