    A vigorous pour gives a cloudy liquid with two plus inches of off white, thick, frothy foam. Retention isn't bad but the foam doesn't become thicker as it recedes. Lacing is sticky, thin but quite good.

    Aroma has a big citrus hop scent. Caramel, bread, earth, and spice are other aromas found in the beer.

    Taste is subdued sweet up front with an ending that builds. Bread, earth, and another blast of citrus comes in big. Some spice hop adds to the citrus in the finish to give an ending that is bitter, spicey, and fruity.

    A medium bodied beer with a solid, prickly carbonation angle. Mostly a malt forward IPA.

    As mentioned above, mostly a malt forward IPA, which really isn't what I am looking for in the style, especially from the west coast. The bitterness comes on stronger and stronger the more I drink; not well balanced. I would have again but not before I looked for a ton of other solid west coast IPAs. Enjoy!
