look: 4.75 | smell: 4.75 | taste: 5 | feel: 4.75 | overall: 5

A - on tap at the World of Beer; pours a nice orange color with a 1/2 inch head.

S - smells unbelievably fresh; west coast hops invade the palate with force

T - best IPA I've ever tasted on tap, really nice tropical fruit flavor with a powerful yet mellow punch of hops that make me want more.

M - perfect on the palate, not too filling. I could drink this all night. Wait, I did drink this all night...

O - Sculpin, when on tap, is my favorite IPA.

Serving type: on-tap

look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

Pours out a clear brassy gold. Thin head. Some piney/citrus hops in the nose with a pale maltiness that's fairly prevalent. Touch of booze in the nose. Taste is fairly balanced overall. Quite a bit of maltiness and sweetness up front. Dries out in the finish a touch. Doesn't beat you over the head with hop flavor but has a pretty punchy bitterness in the finish. Bitterness lingers. I enjoy the bitterness, but I'd prefer a touch more hop flavor. Mouthfeel isn't thick and syrupy, which is a very good thing, but it could use a bit more body. Carbonation could be a little more assertive for my tastes. Overall this is a pretty solid IPA with nothing really "off" about it. I really just don't understand the $15 price tag for the 6 though. Give me a Stone IPA over this in flavor and price, but I can't really hate on this either. Again, this is solid, but I just don't understand the hype.

Serving type: bottle
