We heap the hops into each batch of our Thunderhead IPA. A golden nectar with a striking floral aroma, Thunderhead holds a harmonious balance between its bold hop bitterness and subtle malt backbone.

Cobriza, té, en el color. Escasa espuma, escasa retención. Aroma lupulado, notas de vainilla, algo empalagoso. En boca fuerte amargor, intenso, pomelo, notas cítricas... y a la vez notas dulzona. Bastante dura.

Hazy dull light amber. Medium head. Earthy aroma and old school bitter but dull cheesy hop character. Not great but old school.

Nice aroma, but taste is a little flat. Normal hop sharpness, appearance is great with high fluffy head. Finish is short, with mild lingering bitterness. Good, but not great.

12 oz bottle. Pours amber with medium head and lots of carbonation. Aromas of malts and a touch of floral hops. Flavours are similar with significant bitter finish. Except for the bittering there is not much here

Tap at the Seattle Taproom (Sea-Tac Airport) - 09/11/12. Very lightly hazed mid amber with a thin off white head, lively carbonation evident (Great - Not!). Nose is light caramel malt, touch of citrus, a little hoppage, a pretty muted nose all told. Taste is caramel malt, some hop bitterness, a little candied sugar, citrus notes, light floral tones. Medium bodied with prickly carbonation (badly done IPA!) leading to a bitter finish. Below par stuff - not recommended.

Draft - Mild nose with fruity citrus hops. Clear gold with thick persistent head. Punch of bitterness and grapefruit hops. A long but entirely unpleasant finish. The mild nose masks the strength but a decent IPA.

This is to the dull side of a middle-of-the-road IPA. It’s not a bad beer, but IMHO it is too malty and lacking in hops to be an IPA.

Just got pyramid out here on the east coast. The pour is amber with a white head that dissapates very quickly. Aroma is of grapefruit, and citrus hoppiness with a solid caramel malt foundation. Taste is the same, finish is easy.
