Poured up on tap at Shoots where it exhibits a crystal clear pure gold colored body that supports a nice white head that leaves behind some spotty lacing. The modest aroma offers up spicy to woody hoppiness followed closely by various berry fruitiness and a bit of melon. The taste delivers tart to bitter spicy and woody hops nuanced by fairly sharp, largely bitter, berry like notes. It ends nice and crisp and killing any chance of any sweetness welling up. That works.

Bottle shared at home with Johnny. Hazy pale yellow color, medium sized white head. Aroma is pretty citrus hoppy forward with some tropical fruit peel notes. Flavor is lightly malts, bitter hops, citrus hops. Alright, not great.

Bottle at home shared with Johnny. Hazy yellow color, medium sized white head. Aroma is malts, hops, fruity hops. Not that special, but nothing wrong with it either. Flavor is malts, hops, fruity hops, old school fruity-bitter hops with pine notes and maybe light resin, firm bitterness towards the end. Solid, not great.

500ml bottle from John's Marketplace Beaverton. Hazy orange golden pour, one finger fluffy white head. Mild grapefruity aroma, fruity. Taste brings minor citrus zest, juicy flavors. So well balanced and really tasty. I expect nothing less from the masters at Russian River.
