			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Background: From <a href="http://www.leftcoastbrewing.com/">Left Coast</a> in San Clemente, CA, this American IPA pairs five hop varieties with English malts and is named&#8230;after a <a href="http://www.torreypinesgolfcourse.com/">golf course</a>?  (Or possibly after the tree that the golf course was named for.)</p>
<p>Appearance: Apricot coloured body, sticky off-white head.</p>
<p>Nose: Grainy malt forms a solid bed for floral, piny hops.  Less hop aroma than the boasting about being &#8220;double dry-hopped&#8221; suggests.</p>
<p>Taste: Clean, sweet maltiness with a vague fruitiness, piny and grassy hop flavour, high hop bitterness.  A hint of tangerines.  Finish is resiny and slightly harsh.</p>
<p>Overall: Except for the harshness in the finish, a very good example of the style (and one that should serve to remind people that American hops are about more than just citrus).</p>
<p>EDIT: There&apos;s a fair amount of sediment at the bottom of the bottle.  Sampling <i>mit Hefe</i> ups the fruitiness a tad, and adds a bit of spiciness.</p>
