A yellow apperance with a very large head. This one focuses to much on the lemon flavor for me to be wowed by it. It also has a strong grapefruit presence. Somewhat bitter but sweet also. It was alright.

22 oz bottle acquired in trade with beerhandy (thanks!). Poured a medium and cloudy amber color with a large sized off white head. Aromas of grapefruit, pine and some caramel malts. Tastes of lighter grapefruit, oranges, and caramel. Some what fruity in the tastes as well. Medium bitter with a sweeter side to it as well.

Poured with a medium orange body and a white head that stuck around. The aroma was oranges with a hint of caramel and toffee. I also got a whiff of iced tea. The taste is bitter grapefruit and burnt caramel. There is a slight edge of pine and some slight black pepper in the finish. Sharp finish. Thanks for the bottle, MrFacto.

Amber body under a thick foamy off-white head maintained by heavy carbonation. Nose of lime juice, fresh-cut green grass. Not much sweetness in the aroma but the flavor brings out a substantial caramel foundation w/ peppery, grassy hop bitterness; lime rind and grass in the finish. A differently-abled IPA.

This IPA pours an orange gold color from a 22 oz bottle. A medium sized white foamy head with strong lacing. Aroma is fruity and floral hops. A medium bodied IPA. Malts are fruity and sweet. Hops are grapefruity, citrus and piney. The bitterness is way up there but it has a nice smooth malt middle. Nice creamy carbonation. This beer has that typical PNW IPA in your face hoppiness, yet there is a certain subtleness to it as well. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and crisp. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.

(22 oz bottle: $3.39 at Bottleworks in Seattle, WA) Highly recommended by the guy at Bottleworks, so let’s go! Some hops and a very light tea in the aroma, but also a fair amount of stinky feet. The flavor is more hoppy than the aroma indicates, it being somewhat citrusy and piney, and in balance with the malt initally, but then the finish is dominated by the citrusy hops. So to me, this is more a traditional, hoppy Pacific Northwest IPA. Medium bodied, fairly clean, with a crisp finish. The hazy and bright golden-amber body is topped by a bubbly and small off-white head that settles to a film, but is easily stirred to life with a quick swirl. I like this beer, but it’s a bit more of a standard IPA, and I prefer more malt in my IPAs.

Very nice beer courtesy of LarryP. Well made and enjoyable, not an over the top rendition which is refreshing. Well balanced with hints of fruit among all the hop bitterness. Too bad so many brewers feel the need to be extreme instead of making well rounded, easy drinking beers like this.
