The greatest beer on the planet! I've had this both on tap at Russian River and from the case I brought home with me. Beautiful sunset orange with a thick 2 finger head. The nose on this thing is incredible. Super hoppy with a blast of citrus. As far as the taste, this beer is a work of art. A perfect balance of citrus sweetness and bitter floral hops. If I could only drink one beer for the rest of my life this would be my choice.

Got to enjoy this right at Russian River. Great hoppy mouth with that lovely zingy finish.

Piney, grapefruit nose , citrus-forward, slick mouthfeel, and a honey-like smoothness that finishes with just enough hop bitterness to sit at the back of the throat between sips. Incredibly balanced for the depth of flavor and aroma it boasts. All parts work as one. Awesome one from RR. On tap at monks Aug. 2012
