Bottle at Chris O’s. Dark brown with a beige head. Aromas of dried fruit, caramel, spices. Quite sour. Flavours of vanilla, some toffee, malts and raisins. Pleasant alcohol burn. Heavy malty finish with hints of fruit. Nice.

Nice crisp and hazy copper coloured body with almost ruby tints and a nice thin (one centimetre tall) tan head. Aroma of fresh soapy, piney and lightly citrusey hops with a lot of alcohol tucked in, some fresh apricots and a robust large body. Medium-bodied; Assertive citrus and piney hop flavour with a good but understated malt backbone and a quick and large flash of hops up front faded off with some apricots and alcohol, but a relatively mild finish. Aftertaste shows the glimmer of the hops, but no malt, sweetness or alcohol in the finish, just a lingering dryness, which is nice, but not stellar. Overall, a good traditional IPA, nothing too special, but definitely not a let down. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Hi-Time Wine Cellars in Costa Mesa, California on 18-May-2009, sampled at home in Washington on 07-March-2010.

GABF. Clear amber beer. Very aromatic and bittering hops with a medicinal note. The aroma alone made me sneeze! 3.

Hazy amber - brown beer, good pale tan head. Light palate, semi dry and crispy. Creamy malt provides silky smoothness. Hops are minty and piney. Whisper of orange. The sage blends in nicely here. The juniper adding a nice subtle fruit. Finishes smooth and malty creamy with fresh hop spice. Nicely thought out IPA - the additions sepperating it out from the crowd. Very drinkable.

Deep brown color with mahogany hints. Little to no head that seems to be tan. Roasted and chocolate malts dominate the nose. Thin, viscous mouthfeel. Dark chocolate with root beer and a cola finish. Very tingly carbonation. Not a bad offering.

On draft at Yosemite National Park. Nice copper gold color with a small white head that gives way to a ring of foam with a lace middle. Aroma of cascade hops explode out of the glass. Monster nose with lots of floral scents. Taste of balanced hop and malt on the initial palate follows through with both loads of bitterness and nice floral flavors. The mouthfeel is a little disjointed from the jolt of hops on the finish.
