This one is dedicated to everyone who has gotten up at the butt crack of dawn, headed towards the shores and found it 4-6 feet and offshore only to find 30 of your “buddies” have already claimed the peak. As you paddle out, a swell arrives from nowhere signaling your turn to go. The surf Gods are shinning on you today. You turn, stroke like mad for the wave. Standing up you are alone and blammo you Wipeout….blowing the only chance of a right hander all to yourself. You know who you are. We’ve all been there too. It’s inside each and every one of us. Welcome to the waters of Wipeout IPA, a massively hopped India Pale Ale with enough substance and body to overcome even the worst and most tragic of on the water spills. We brew Wipeout IPA for everyone- especially those hardy souls who brave the cold winter water and monster sets produced by an amazing northwest swell. Only a tidal wave of hops can overcome the surging tide of malt that is required to produce a beer of this shape. We invite you to drop in, hang on and kick out the backside. That is, unless you enjoy wiping out and all the glory that goes with it.

Poured from bottle from Bogies orange gold with a thin white head. Aromas of caramel malt mild citrus and pine. Taste is all caramel barely any citrus lingering bitterness. Note to brewers date your shit. I am sure this was bomb fresh.

Thanks for the share T. J. Orange amber color with white head. Sweet caramel, stone fruits, citrus, and weak pine.

No bottle date any place, hard to know how long this sat. It has WAY to much caramel. But there is Reminence of citrus and pine, bitterness is low. Sometimes I wonder why West Cost breweries send their bottles to the East Coast without dates?? Whatever...

Bottle. Pours a hazy yellow gold with medium frothy white head that lasts. The aroma is tropical fruit, dank, floral. Medium mouth, fruity hop, juicy, light bitterness, very good.

Bottle from Kihoskh, Copenhagen - fuzzy golden orange pour with persistent white head and lacing. Big punchy fruity hoppy aroma and taste, mango and grapefruit, with some citrus tangerine and lemon hits, grassy and piney hoppy nuances, some caramel sweetness coming in before the bitter finish. Lovely.

Hazy copper-orange color with small fine white head, nice lacing. Aroma is oranges, tangerines, not too piney. Taste is fruity hops, again oranges and tangerines, not too heavy, but the malt body is there nonetheless, moderate bitterness, quite refreshing. Soft mouthfeel. Balances my very hot Pizza nicely.

Miel turbia, muy cremosa en el aspecto al servir. Dos dedos de espuma blanca. Aroma muy potente, apreciable desde lejos. Naranja amarga, pomelo, pino. Flor. En boca gran equilibrio inicial entre una muy rica base acaramelada y el lúpulo floral y frutal (mango y papaya). Dura poco porque pronto casi sólo queda lo segundo, que crece crece y se apodera del paladar hacia un final muy amargo. Utiliza 5 lúpulos americanos, Centennial, Cascade... Gran IPA

7th May 2015: sat in my daughters house in Laguna Niguel, Orange County, arrived from the UK yesterday afternoon. Bomber, first pour clear golden with a good off-white foaming head, second pour the sediment joined the glass and the body turned orange and cloudy. Huge hop nose and taste: bitter and very ’West Coast’ (in my limited opinion) in nature with an aggressive hop base which doesn’t let go. The second glass with the sediment within was even more bitter and hop centric. Not for the faint hearted or people who have a hop allergy.
