From the cliffs of Seabright beach, wind your way up the San Lorenzo River to where the sun filters down through the redwood branches of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Call up your sense of adventure and appreciation for the lusty flavors of organic hops and try our India Pale Ale.

Tap. Pours hazy amber good, small of white head, good lacing. Aroma is quite light, a bit of floral and citrus. Flavor is amazingly subdued, just not much going on here. Light sweet, light bitter, light body, low carbonation. Meh.

22oz bottle picked up at BevMo in Burlingame
Appearance: Pours slightly hazy golden with a big foamy off-white head and lots of sticky lacing

A strange, funky beer. Drinkable but not very good.

Draft. A hazy golden beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of grassy hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, hops, grass, but also some phenols, leading to a dry phenolic finish.

Bomber. Pours a light and slightly hazy orange with almost no head. Aromas are bland... a little bit of orange, some light malt... that’s about it. Flavor is weak as well. Watery oranges with a little biscuit and just a touch of resin in the late finish.

From tap at the brewpub. Pours almost clear and golden orange with a fully gone head. Orange fruity hops aroma. Sweet flavoured, light fruity note at first followed by a more solid and bitter hops base. Good sweet malt base into the far finish.

Bomer from Bottle Barn; Nose of a little spicinessamnd floral hops, very weak; hazy orange with a medium yellow tinged head; flavor has a little orange, caramel, but only a tiny hint of hop bitterness; has the hop shortage hit already? Or is this not an IPA?
