Creamy white head on a hazy golden coloured body.
Zesty citrus & stone fruit aroma.
Medium bodied, short sharp & dry
Pine, resinous, citrus pith & lime tastes with a bitterly hopped finish.
Cracking.

Can. Almost clear palish amber with a 2cm white head. Citrus and pine aroma with some breadcrust the citrus leans away from kumquat towards grapefruit and Meyer lemon. More tenor register citrus upon a sip with pine overtaking everything before a strong bitter end. Doesn't stray too far, which is fine.

Nagy, tartós hab, homályos, borostyán szín. Fűszeres, fenyős, füves, citrusos illat. Citrusos, fűszeres, fenyős, füves, picit gyógyszeres íz. Közepesen testes, közepesen szénsavas, közepesen keserű. Tipikus IPA.

Very nicely done, and a step up from the Phantom Torpedo I just had in this mixed pack. And that was already well done. Pine, grapefruit. Some unripe pineapple. Clear golden pour with decent head. Bitter end. Nice balance, nice body. Can.

Pretty good Torpedo, piney and bitter as all hell but in the classic Sierra Nevada IPA way, notes of orange and grapefruit zest and a touch of caramel offsetting the deluge of hop vitriol. Clingy bitterness lingers long into the finish. Nice pint.

Pours mostly clear gold with a big white head. It has a citrusy, tropical fruit aroma with secondary pine notes. The flavor has ample crisp hops bitterness, tropical fruit, pale malt, and pine. Very good.

Bottle from a mix pack from Raley's in Woodland, CA. Pours clear brassy gold with a white head. Aroma of citrus with a hint of pine or resin. Med plus body. Lots of mixed citrus - lemon and grapefruit, and possibly orange. Pine/resin is in the mix. Malt is discernible, but it's dry and bitter. More than moderately bitter. Excellent.
