5oz pour at the Fremont location. Pours clear gold with a white head. Aroma has fresh grass and pine. Flavour has pine, fresh grass, douby malts. The bitterness does hav a chemical quality which is unpleasant; may be indicative of an infection.

On tap at Reuben's - Ballard, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out fresh piney hops, crisp biscuity malt, and a touch of doughy malt. Flavour has doughy malt, piney hops, and some diacetyl creeping in here. The diacetyl is very minor but ruinous enough to fuck me off. Not great.

22 oz bottle picked up at Hop and Hound during their Oktoberfest event. Finally trying this version, after enjoying countless pints of Crikey around Seattle. A go to brew for Mariners games for me, unfortunately Mariners baseball doesn't ever line up with fresh hops. Solid IPA here. Really cool and refreshing taste. Hop profile is floral and piney, and very dominant as expected with this brew. Not overly bitter or anything though. This fresh hop seems to get more and more refreshing as it goes. Quite the enjoyable brew here

Can at the Bottle Shop, thanks to the brewer, 22/02/18. Lightly hazed golden orange with a decent off white covering. Nose is grassy, tangerine, toasted grains, bitter green hop exhaust. Taste comprises melon, orange pith, freshly cut grass, faint pine, toasted malts, grapefruit splash. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with balanced hop bitterness. Decent enough IPA.

Can. Almost clear gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light, thin and pretty dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Thin dry malts, not that sweet. Bitterish grassy hops. Thin orange and modest pine. Thin pithy bitter finish. Modest skunk. Overall pretty thin.
