Workhorse is a true West Coast IPA, featuring over-the-top hop flavor and aroma. Three separate dry hop additions in the fermenter make this one of our hoppiest beers to date.

Bottle at the First Big Stout Tasting, London - thanks to Bruce for this change-up. Pours clear, vibrant gold with a tight, white cream head. Bright citrus nose, lots of tangerine and orange, some hints of alcohol. Medium sweet flavor, some toasted white bread, light pine needles. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Lightly resinous finish, plenty of fruity citrus. Fresh and very tasty.

Bottle thanks to deeblo. It pours clear orange-amber with a medium white head. The nose is pine, grapefruit, soft tangerine, orange and some resin. The taste is resinous, orange, tangerine, pine, lightly metallic, caramel and just a touch of alcohol warmth with a pleasantly bitter finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. A smooth, clean and refreshing IPA.

An amber IPA with a very thin off white head. In aroma, a piney resinous and floral hops with mentol notes, meaty c-hops delight meet funky hops. In mouth, a smooth caramel malt with well balanced resinous hops, pink grapefruit pulp, quite nice, warming alcohol, the Northwest in a glass! On tap at PDX Concourse E location, July 31 2011.

Slightly hazy orange color, small white head. Very piney, flowery, maybe a bit vegetably hoppy aroma. Medium-bodied. Very resiny and piney, almost woody hoppyness with some citrus in the flavor. Classic double IPA, drinkability is good although flavor is not extraoridinary.

At SAVOR. Poured a hazy golden./orange color with a large white head. Aroma was heavy citrus fruits, grapefruit, floral and earthy notes. Flavor was heavy citrus notes, hoppy all to heck, and incredibly good. Huge thumbs up on this one.

Sample courtesy of Blazer06. Pours clear copper with off white head. The aroma is grapefruit citrus hops, spicy hops and earthiness as well as malt sweetness in the background. The taste is similar with a pleasing rich grapefruit, spice and earthy hoppiness to go along with a mild supporting structure of malt sweetness. Pretty nice brew with plenty of bitter hops.

orange, off-white head. Nice and lasting piney hop nose and palate with some tropical elements and other grapefruits and bitter citrus. Enough dark roasted malts with nice caramel robe adding a touch of a more cereal touch. Finish is on the dry side bitter side though keeping the right balance of malts.
