IPA is profoundly hoppy, finished with over a pound of fresh whole hops per barrel. The result of this generous hopping is a beer that is deliciously dry, and eminently drinkable in spite of its apparent strength.

355ml bottle. Clear golden colour with average to huge, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Grassy and slightly floral hoppy aroma. Taste is slightly sweet malty, grassy and floral hoppy overtones. Boring especially for a Cali IPA.

Reviewed from notes.
The appearance had a very clear copper colored body with a huge three finger foamy white head, there is no carbonation seen rising. Some spider web lacing is seen around the sides of the glass.
The smell had the malts up front, lemon and orange present themselves as the beer warms.
The taste had a refreshing light crisp maltiness to it that I like as well as some pine presence comes out in the taste.
On the palate, it sat at/about a light to medium with some bitter sharpness on the tongue, but a good sharpness.
Overall, this is a good beer. I would say this is a mostly drinkable beer that I would definitely seek out again.

Bottle at Big Bite. Aroma of piney grassiness. Taste is similarly hoppy - bitter and grassy but sort of unbalanced. Slight apple taste. Very dry finish. Not as good as I remembered.
