Draft at Lost Abbey, Vista. Clean shiny golden pour, thin head. Fresh peach nose, tart, wild. Flavor is also dominated with the advertised peaches, quite sour throughout. Sourness 8/10. Soft funk, juicy peaches, flavorful tart finish. Really fun sour.

Draft pour at Barrel and Stave, Vista. Clean and shiny golden pour. Thin, oily head. Intense hop oil bitter, but really less than I'd expect from a brew of this strength. We'll layered and put together. Excellent.

Draft 8 oz pour at Breakwater Brewing, Vista. Clean and bright golden pour. Thin oily head. Earthy grain nose, bold, some grassy notes, pine heavy hops. Huge bite. Intense bitter. Mild citrus, barely a touch of stone fruit. Has a Triple IPA feel. Big time brewm. Very nice.

Draft 5 oz pour at Stone, Liberty Station. Reddish brown piut, patchy tan foam head. Glad I could make my first visit here during anniversary time, and try this unique, celebratory brew. Dank piney hops. Some dark malt toasty character, but quite mild compared to others I've had within the substyle. Bold palate. Long lingering dank, weedy hop profile. Really interesting. Enjoyed this one.

10 oz pour at Stone Liberty Station. Well, two 5 oz pours brought by two different servers after ordering one. This beer is so good. I'll allow it. Clean and bright golden pour. Patchy head. Dank nose, piney and citrus hops leaning toward pineapple. Lots of pineapple character on flavor while preventing this from being a fruity IPA. Bold and bitter hop flavors. Absolute standout of a west coast double IPA. Always wished I could try Ruination again. This one is an incredible consolation.

Draft pour pint at Stone, Liberty Station. Cloudy golden pour, thin head. Lots of grassy hop nose. Inviting. Easy drinking highly flavorful session. Bitter bite that lingers and really captures a full IPA feel. Very tasty.
