Enjoyed at gabf 2014. It pours with a nice crystal clear gold body that supports a light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up an intriguing mix of tangelo and grassy hops and then a little bit of dankness and a hint of bell pepper. The taste is a pleasing blend of spicy hops, a bit of dank garlic, some citrusy tangelo and then a little bit of grassy resininess. These notes even out and get a tad malty into the finish. Delicious.

can 1 pint. Pours yellow with a slight haze and a creamy, white head. Subtle citrusy hop aroma. Light body, soft on the palate initially but then a rather brutal hoppiness kicks in. Would’ve loved a fresher and more distinct hop imprint. Just appears crudely hoppy. 161014

Referred to here as a double IPA. It poured up on tap at the Bressi Ranch location where it exhibits a clear gold body that supports a good looking nearly tight dirty white head of foam that leaves behind sheet lacing. The aroma offers up malt sweetened mango that gives way slowly to grapefruit bitter citrus hoppiness. The taste pushes mango and juicy tangelo right at you. It then quickly adds in bitter grapefruit like citrus hoppiness. It just stays that way right into a pleasing hoppy resiny citrus finish lined with a mild sweet malts and citrus hop flavor. This is dangerously drinkable. Wow!

17th July 2014, this beer was on my second flight of the day at Pizza Port San Clemente. Black, with a tan head. Bourbon, oak, and vanilla aromas and taste. The vanilla flavour getting stronger all the time as the beer warmed a little in the glass. Chocolate and a mild liquorice character also appeared as it warmed. Very pleasant and interesting brew.

1st beer on my 2nd flight of the day at the San Clemente Pizza Port: 17th July 2014. Clear amber with a thin off-white head. The aroma had some caramel hints and a mild fruitiness. The taste similar with a semi-dry palate, medium bodied with a good carbonation. Finish was mildly bitter. OK, but the flight held better stronger flavoured brews.
