Keg at the taproom, downtown PDX, 09/11/14. Hazed golden with a moderately appointed off white head. Nose is light pine, spice, bitter citrics, straw, orange peel. Taste comprises orange pith, pine, mineral wash, spice, tangy citrics. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with hop bitterness evident. Adequate IPA.

Bottle sent for review along with #1 and #3. This one pours rather cloudy, with visible bits of hop or yeast particles, under a spongier head that dwindles much faster than the #1. Smell has more exotic hop to it, like citrus and pineapple, perhaps a note of kumquat. Taste is also much more hoppy. Those citrus notes again, but also bigger on pine needles, and a suggestion of peppermint, somewhere in the back of my palate. At 5.8% abv, this is slightly stronger than the Crystal Pale Ale, but that doesn?t matter, as its main intent is to scare away those who don?t like hops. The malt body seems a shade lighter than the #1 too, to let extra bitterness curl the sides of my tongue. And somehow, while the #1 left some fine lacy foam along the sides of my glass, this one also had a bit of viscous liquid, characteristic of an imperial stout.

Bottle: Hazy golden orange color, topped with a thin finger of creamy off-white head. Earthy, herbal, and floral scents, some bready malt too. Citrus comes out in the taste, along with a good dose of florals. Its lightly sweet with minimal bitters. Faint bready malt in the tail.

Light enough in body and taste to almost fake you into considering it might be a session ale. Hop variety is very citrusy (lemons).Some other citrusy elements in the aroma, very light bodied as well. Not the typical in your face NW IPA.

Cloudy, has a fruity hop nose, bitter, and with a pithy grapefruit finish...funny not getting Australian hops on this.

12oz bottle. Hazy unfiltered bright orange-yellow body. Steady off-white head. I get a pinch of apricot in the otherwise mild aroma, and I am definitely searching. Don’t believe I’ve ever had a beer with Ella hops. A pretty interesting beer, certainly has a unique touch. Apricot, some orange zest, and some steady pine in the backdrop. Grew on me the more I sipped it, this is a pretty solid beer for 7.49 a sixpack. Could be a little more assertive, but well done.

On tap at Bridgeport, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma and flavour of piney hops, some herbal notes, and a creamy biscuity malt backing. Decent balance, with a good hop profile. Solid IPA.
