Extra marks for a perfect appearance, beautiful orange copper color with towering rocky lasting head. Soft citrus / grapefruit aroma, more citrus in the taste, plus some pine/hops, a hint of toffee. Mellow lingering bitterness on the finish. A nice IPA, without going overboard on the bitterness.

Pure gold color, subtle carbonation, huge white, chunky head (3.75). Floral and pine hop notes; lemon zest (4.25). Excellent marriage of hops and grains in the flavor; lemon tartness and mildly biting hop bitterness with a low-key malt base riding beneath it all; light Xmas cookie dough (3.75). Medium bodied; crisp, clean and dry.
The amarillo hops profile nicely and pretty much steal the show. The malt base does a fine job supporting the hops. Delicious and very easy drinking. For a single hop IPA, this is quite good...

Pours a cloudy orange/amber color. The smell isn't particularly citrusy as the label indicates, just mostly smells of pine. Has a medium body, clean taste, and nice bitter finish. I get a slightly citrus rind taste with the finish as well but it does not dominate the flavor. it's a decent IPA, but nothing of note.

22oz bottle poured into a large mug. No dates or codes on the bottle that I can find.
Pours slightly cloudy, rich amber, with a big coarse head that fades slowly and a surprisingly small amount of active carbonation. Smell is disappointing. Straw, old hop smell. Maybe that's just the smell of amarillo hops -- that would be interesting.
Taste is better than the smell indicates to me. A somewhat lemony bitterness, piney/citrus bitter finish.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied and effervescent. Overall, it's fine.

Poured from 22oz bomber into a pint glass.
Appearance: medium orange hue with a light haze and a very strong effervescence. Head is two fingers of pillowy ivory foam with a hint of an orange cast. I think it's IPA-riffic.
Smell: lightly malty aroma with a bit of sweetness and a rather soapy character. Hops are on the floral side with a very small hint of herbiness. Not too bad.
Taste: graininess before sweetness on the malt bill here, with a floral/soapy hop character. It's not bad, if that's your thing, but it really doesn't scream Amarillo to me in the slightest. Bottle confirms this is indeed all-Amarillo -- but it really doesn't taste like it. That said, it's still a halfway-decent IPA.
Mouthfeel: medium body with a decent carbonation and creaminess. Not bad for the style.
Overall: maybe not the greatest IPA in the world, and really not obviously Amarillo, but still a decent quaff.
