8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
Nice hazy light copper coloured body with a bit of an amber glow and a thin, one centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of bright citrusey and grapefruity hops with a hint of pine and earth, some alcohol and tons of honey notes - smells sweet! Medium-bodied; Nice deep grassy, floral, piney, citrusey hop flavour throughout with a perfect malt backbone showing an excellent balance. Aftertaste shows a bit of flowers, some honey, alcohol and a good light hop bitterness. Overall, a very well made IPA with a great balance of bitter hops and strong malt, leaving a perfect finish of depth throughout. Definitely nice to sample - if you can find it, try it now! I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Belmont Station in Portland, Oregon on 25-April-2013 for US$2.90 sampled at home in Washington on 19-July-2013.

7.75% Cloudy amber - brown beer. Good pale cream coloured head. Palate is slightly soft and semi dry with fine carbonation. Soft caramel malt base. Big resinous hops. Bitterish pine and lesser skunk and grass. Mild hop sting. Balances well with the sweet malt. Semi dry finish. Pretty drinkable.
