Leicht trübes goldgelbes Bier mit einer ordentlichen weißen Schaumkrone. Geruch sehr hopfig, leicht fruchtig, malzig, grasig. Geschmack fruchtig hopfig, grasig, minimal metallisch, Grapefruit -> Kein Überflieger, dennoch süffig und gut trinkbar!

Keg at Flying Scotsman, Stockholm. Lightly hazy pale golden, small head. Aroma of green apples and too old tangerines. Light bodied with clean mouthfeel and light body. Apples, notes of citrus. Metallic finish with some resin. Simplistic and disharmonic.

Keg at the taproom in SD, 12/11/14. Clear golden with a moderate off white covering that was shaped like a penis! Nose is citric sherbets, orange pith, floral notes. Taste comprises light pine, floral hops, grapefruit, orange pith, tangerine. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with light hop bitterness. So so, lacks hop presence, probably a session IPA in this day and age?

Enormous can! Light haze on this gold beer, good fluffy white head. Palate is light with a good crispy bite. Light pale malts support good hops. Hops skunk and a good deal of hop spice. Mild citrus. Finishes with more hop spice that lingers on. Very drinkable fresh tasting APA.

Total Wine, Fairfax from a comically large can: Pours hazy gold with white head. Aroma is citrus, including lemon and a bit of grapefruit, along with some other tropical flavors. Taste is slightly sweet with a hefty west coast hops punch. Very sessionable and pleasant, especially when from a very large can.

22oz bottle all to myself while sitting on my daughters balcony overlooking Balboa Island: 16th March 2014. I thought this was a good beer from start to finish, golden, hoppy and just nice! The alcohol level suited the flavours and although hoppier than the UK beers I’m more used too, this didn’t try to kill my palate like some I tried while in California.
