The Rogue Brewing Company is in Newport, Oregon.
This beer pours orangish-copper in color with a tall and billowy, thick off-white head that leaves medium to thick, sticky lacing down the glass. The aroma is citrusy, melon, a bit of pine, and some lightly sweetened sun-brewed tea with lemon. The taste is hop forward, fruity, citrus, tangy, tea with lemon balanced very well on a rich, roasted, toasted and caramel malt base. The beer has a smooth mouthfeel, medium body and carbonation. It finishes with comparatively very little bitterness despite its hop forward profile. The bitterness it has is reminiscent of grapefruit rind. This is a very drinkable, tasty and nice IPA.
This is the new bottle design, and a picture of the old bottle design as well (I like the new design much better).
