May0
This is one hoppy mofo (picture by Jana)
Note: This is a guest post from my lovely fiancee she also enjoys a good beer and wanted to do a review and why would I refuse? So, anyways now you know and you can stop wondering why the hell there are references to “Mr. iluvmybeer” that would be me. Well enjoy reading her witty banter

Basic Stats:
Brewed By: Moylan’s Brewing Company in Novato, CA
Contains: 1pint 6oz of fluid
Warm and Fuzzy Factor: 6.5% alcohol by volume
Price: Mr. iluvmybeer can’t remember
Type of Brew: India Pale Ale
On the bottle, it says that this beer “provides a stimulating assault on all senses.” It is true that it is a pretty gold color, it smells like a hoppy IPA, and tastes like someone crammed a few barrels worth of hops into the bottle. It was a little weak in the sound arena though.
Immediately out of the fridge and bottle, this beer tastes like most other “assaultingly” hoppy IPAs. You must be in the mood to have this beer. (No, not THAT mood.) When Mr. iluvmybeer took a taste, I am pretty sure that he had sour beer face going on. As this beer warmed up, the hoppy-factor did cool it a bit and it was more drinkable.
The brewers also said that the beer had floral notes to it, but that isn’t something that I picked up on. Neither did I notice the “notes of resin and herbs.”
Unfortunately, this is the type of beer that isn’t that great for my virgin review. It isn’t that awesome and it isn’t that bad, just middling.
The good: It is a hoppy IPA
The bad: It is a HOPPY IPA, which may drive some people away
Overall taste: 
Bitterness (changing to 3.5/5 as it warmed up): 
Smoothness:
