Vac (2231), San Diego, California, USA Apr 21, 2008 Brought back from Portland by a friend who was nice enough to share. Pours witha slightly cloudy, amber body topped by a thin to medium thick head with a good amount of lacing. It’s bitter and hoppy with a grassy, peppery note. Medium bodied, dry and warming.
BeerFanDan17 (359), Land O Lakes, Florida, USA Aug 11, 2008 Sampled at the Oregon Brewer’s Festival in Jul 2008. Copper in color and very hoppy. Peach tones? ABUSEDGOAT (1882), California, USA Aug 5, 2008 Amber colored, decent lacing and retention. Aroma is citrus, grapefruit, caramel. Moderate bitterness, moderately dry. Decent but unexciting. stchloe (96), Portland, Oregon, USA Aug 4, 2008 Everyone knows this beer. Its an IPA. Its a really good IPA. Luckily its more common on tap these days, so no more Pabst default. greenhorn1 (365), Eugene, Oregon, USA Jul 18, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours a cloudy copper, small head. Big hoppy citrus nose. Flavor is mainly grapefruit and pine notes. Meduim mouthfeel and carbonation. Long bitter bite that lingers on and on. Very easy to drink and a great representation of a PNW IPA. fakepurseninja (468), Sammamish, Washington, USA Jul 15, 2008 Very rich and creamy ipa. Mild sweetness with a strong, earthy, almost nutty, component. Grapefruit citrus evident with a touch of mellow pine and a great roasted malt profile. Very well balanced and very enjoyable.
