0.355l can. Clear golden/orange body with a thick and lasting white head. Aroma and taste of caramel, biscuit, grapefruit, grape seed, pine and lime zest. The citrusy charater is more vivid in the taste than in the aroma. Medium bodied with a bit higher than average carbonation. Nice one.

American style pale ale from this brewpub in San Diego, named after the street where it is located. Can with sober black, white and grey colours and referring to the spirit of the local music scene; about one and a half year old already now, so considering style, likely past its prime. Rather thick, frothy, eggshell-white, tightly 'papier maché'-like lacing, gradually dissipating but generally very stable head, misty warm orange-hued peachy golden hue with disparate and fine sparkling. Aroma, in spite of its age, still remarkably bright, inviting and fresh: impressions of fresh orange peel, pink grapefruit juice, dry biscuit, pine resin, cheese crackers and indeed an actual dry old cheese rind hint, green olives, chicken spices, ripe mandarin, very faint background whiffs of wet clay, peach jam and old rubber. Crisp, bright, spritzy onset, lots of stinging and very minerally carbonation but acceptable for an APA, bright 'yellow' fruitiness of pineapple, peach, some blood orange and peach but in a clean, smooth, non-estery (so malty and hoppy) way; oily, smooth mouthfeel, feeling quite 'full' for 5.5% ABV. Lovely biscuity and cracker-like maltiness, slick and just a tad sweet with a toasty-bitterish accent, highly and colourfully aromatized by a firm, very citric, long-stretching, elegantly fruity and spicy, resinous hop bitterness, pushing vivid aromas of blood orange, grapefruit, pine, mandarin, green olives and toasted garlic upwards with only the slightest dash of 'oldness' (cheese rind). This can must have been kept in exceptionally good circumstances, as this beer is still as bright and colourful as I love my APAs and IPAs to be; this one is hoppy (and bitter) enough to qualify as an IPA as well, but more importantly, it has a beautiful citric character as well as exotic, rounded spiciness, making for a very elegant yet tangy ale. Lovely drink, which I may even have enjoyed more than I would have otherwise, due to the piney, spicy and strongly grapefruity West Coast character it exhibits - it even makes me a bit nostalgic for those exciting pre-NEIPA times...

Bit too sweet for an IPA for me, but excellent and highly drinkable.

golden color. Pretty surprised it’s not nearly as sour as expected with lots of pineapple and vanilla character. Fairly effervescent with modest sweetness. Mouth has low carbonation with a good mix of sour and sweet. Full body. Tons of vanilla and pineapple. A bit odd but it’s well made. Kinda this odd after taste of citrus, pineapple but alcohol is well hidden. Good, but not amazing

Huge, dense yellowish head over hazy orange-golden beer, well carbonated. Concentrated lupuline, orangepeel(oil), bit of caramel. Hay, orangepeel, caramel - even toffee - exotic fruit, essential fruitoils. Really good balance between the flavours, even when it's only bitterish compared to the outspoken sweetness. Chewy, oily, viscous. Long lasting flavours and oils. Medium to well-carbonated. Quite nice IIPA, the outspoken orangepeel flavour making it really attractive.
