Description
A TOAST FROM THE COAST Part legend, part luck, the elusive green flash is a San Diego sensation. But to us, it’s more than a burst of brilliant green light as the sun sets into the sea – it’s a magical moment that signals the end of an extraordinary day and the start of an epic night on the horizon. Our Brewmaster, Erik Jensen, and his talented brewing team have developed an award-winning assortment of specialty craft ales that are uniquely Green Flash. After releasing the game changing West Coast IPA, our beers developed a loyal following of craft beer lovers. We remain steadfast in our commitment to a beer first philosophy. For that, we are celebrated by beer enthusiasts worldwide. To keep our fans thirsty for more, we consistently produce experimental, limited-edition and seasonal offerings in addition to a solid lineup of long-time favorites.

My thanks to Darkelf for this one. Aroma is floral hops, alcohol, and very light smoke. Bronze with a lasting head. Flavor is crisp and clean. Medium-bitter hops, and some citrus. Overall a nice blend of citrus and floral characteristics.

Thanks to Killer for truckin’ this back from California! Deep gold color with a thick off-white head that was thicker than the top of a meringue pie and lasted long after the beer was drunk from underneath it! Flowery piny hop aroma with lots of malt coming through too. The flavor is well balanced, bitter, but again lots of malt backing to balance it all out. Wonderfully long bitter finish. Very good IPA and one I’ll seek out again.

Bottle. Golden beer with no head and somewhat cloudy. Aroma of herbal hops and some malt. Very smooth flavor, easy to drink. There is very little going on in this beer. It's almost like an entry level ale made more for your bmc swillers. Not nearly the best San Diego has to offer.
