Tangerine Dreamsicle

Tangerine Dreamsicle

22 oz bottle As much as I hate the idea of this kind of thing, I think that the citrus notes of tangerine and orange are likely to fit well with a big, west coast IPA that is the hallmark of Green Flash. Let's just say that it has the potential to...

Saison Diego

Saison Diego

With a name like this I suppose I was expecting a hopped up, high(er) alcohol Saison. In reality, neither is the case and I believe this is a re-branded version of Summer Saison anyway. A nice, bright orange body with plenty of cloudiness. The head...

Linch Pin White India Pale Ale

Linch Pin White India Pale Ale

I'm not a big fan of hyped-up, imaginary beer styles, so this gets off on the wrong foot all around. WTF is a 'White IPA' anyway? The BS that we have had to endure over 'Black IPA' is bad enough, now this? It just gives my arguments more credence....

Rayon Vert

Rayon Vert

Interesting bottle that reminds me a little of the Australian stubbies. Pour is a mid-orange color with a huge, ice-cream like head. The retention is superb, leaving a thick and creamy head the whole way down the beer, but the lace is surprisingly...

Summer Saison

Summer Saison

22oz bottle. Lemon, hazed pour with a minimal head. Nose and tastes have more hoppy bitterness and less sweetness and spice that I was expecting. Hops generate a small degree of bitterness that I wasn't expecting. The nose gives a fairly large does...

Bière De L’Amitié

Bière De
L’Amitié

750 mL, corked and "banded". An interesting collaboration, and on top of that an unlikely one. Green Flash are not exactly a subtle brewer (their existence in San Diego is unlikely to produce much of that), so I was concerned about their influence...

Green Flash Hop Head Red Ale

Green Flash Hop Head Red Ale

12 oz stubbie bottle. Mid-brown color with some yeast floaties and a well formed, tight, white head. Lace is not as good as the head would suggest, but still OK. Big hop, resin based nose. Huge. Aggressive. Not much to report here - not bad, but...

Green Flash Hop Head Red Ale

Green Flash Le Freak

$9.50 from Bruisin' Ales, Asheville, NC, USA for the 22oz bottle. Pour is interesting since it provides a light, yellow, tripel colored body with some slight haze. It is also surprisingly good in the head department with decent retention and some...

Green Flash Hop Head Red Ale

Green Flash West Coast I.P.A.

12oz stubbie. $1.89 apparently. Quintessential West Coast IPA in terms of appearance, nose and taste - NEVER has a beer been more aptly named! Clouded orange body with a high rocky head with good retention and excellent lace. Quintessential (there...

Green Flash Hop Head Red Ale

Green Flash Trippel

22oz bottle, purchased at State Line Liquor, DE, USA. $5.79. Poured into the Val-Dieu chalice. Pour is a very nice, slightly cloudy classic orange body. Head is not very well retained, but is attractive, and very fluffy. Lace was impressive. It...
