7oz pour at their Shilshole taproom. Pours clear gold with white head. Aroma has woody pine, dank. Flavour has clean pine, wood, light orange, some cat piss. This is extremely well-done, great flavours from the hops.

7oz pour at their Shilshole taproom. Pours cloudy yellow with white head. Aroma has some citrus hops I guess. Flavour has citrus and stonefruit coated in chalk. What a waste of fresh hops.

On tap at Cloudburst - Shilshole, pours a clear pale blonde with a small white head. Aroma has a nice hop tanginess, some piney oils, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is vibrant, with lots of gooseberry, white wine hop tang, piney hops, and citrusy notes, leaving a pronounced hoppy bite. Wonderfully hopped and balanced. Excellent.

On tap at Cloudburst - Shilshole, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma has lots of tangy NZ hops—even though none are used—with pine, some woodiness and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is wonderfully vibrant, with lots of tangy hops, bitter pine, some light woodiness, and just enough biscuity. Tangy and piney. This is phenomenal.

On tap at Cloudburst - Shilshole, pours a clear pale blonde with a medium white head. Aroma brings out bready malt, toasted biscuity malt, and straw. Flavour has a nice bready maltiness, toasted caramel, and very gentle crispness. Clean, malty and crisp. Very nice.

On tap at Cloudburst - Shilshole, pours a clear pale blonde with a medium white head. Aroma has lots of toasted grains, biscuity malt, and a touch of gritty grassiness. Flavour is crisp, with grassy hops, moderate bitterness, and crisp crackery malt. Wouldn't have guessed this was fresh hopped. But it's solid.

Opaque, thin head. Light stone fruit, mild malt, touch of stone fruit. Hop burn. I guess it’s about the norm for cloudburst.

Draft 8 oz pour at Chuck's CD. Clean and bright golden pour, thin but lasting head. Big dank bite here, lots of hops, and none going to waste. Very flavorful, with a bright bitterness. Citrus peel and some fruit punch sit in front of a piney constant. This is probably where Cloudburst shines the most. Delicious west coast with all the classic hops. Awesome.
