From Full Sail Brewery in Hood River, Oregon. The 2008 version of their IIPA, part of the Brewmaster Reserve series. I stumbled across a few bottles of this at Dissmores Supermarket while working out of town in Pullman, Wa. They had a nice selection of NW brews and a few bottles of Stone Smoked Porter (which I also got). Anyway, a really nice IIPA with lots of grapefruit up front, a malty backbone and a very "flowery" nose. Nicely balanced and quite drinkable. I'm going to put a couple of bottles in the basement next to my Oaked IIPA to compare about this time next spring.
