The fruit is starting to mellow just a little bit but these still benefit from an hour of air. Rich dark fruit, with lots of syrah character. A little black pepper but not overwhelming and a little green pepper too. Drinks well now with more improvement short term and should be in its prime for another 8-10 — 7 years ago
Pleasant surprise. So good. I’d drink it every week. Easy to approach yet elegant (pretty close). Hint of green apple, grapefruit and zest. — 8 years ago
Heavy body for a Sauvignon blanc. Nice citrus and green elements. — 9 years ago
Nice medium bodied, less extracted version, less oak. Comparing to lots of CA Cabernet. Priced well. Bottle drained quickly. Touch of green detracts. — 9 years ago
Very solid IPA, this celebrates the one year anniversary partnership between Green Flash and Alpine, of course if you still want Alpine beer, you will have to go to their brewery, good news is, this lends more to the Alpine style of IPA's then Green Flash, using the proprietary Alpine yeast strain, a very good start, hope they continue to be as good and better in future brews, big hop profile, Mosaic, Citra, Simco and El Dorado hops, 7% ABV, 55 IBU's feels and taste bigger, big wow factor for me, only paid $1.99 for this bomber — 10 years ago
Great barrel aged sour beer! I really dig the way oak aging softens the usually hard bite of a sour brew. — 7 years ago
Vanilla on the nose. Tropical fruits, coconut, green apple and citrus zest. Zap of acidity at the start on the front of the tongue, complemented by the fruit flavors. — 7 years ago
What a steal this wine is. Great aromatic intensity and rather expansive on the palate with a very persistent finish. More green, herbal qualities to this vintage, but well-rounded with fragrant white flowers, piercing peaches,
grapefruit pith and a hint of salinity. Nervy, high-acid, herbal and rather complex. An ideal accompaniment to just about any fish, and with enough savory and vegetal component to match well with challenging pairings such as asparagus (which I tried, and it was excellent). — 8 years ago
Wonderful finding this bottle after forgetting it was there. Still fresh but with the distinct hazelnut notes that come with age. Light gold in color.medium nose with notes of lemon, cream brûlée, hazelnut, green apple and honeysuckle. Medium body, alcohol and acidity. Medium plus finish. Reminds me of a younger R. López de Heredia Viña Tondonia Gran Reserva. — 8 years ago
A polished mahogany bust of the female Tom Green, washed with milk, and set on the mantle of a fireplace filled with bubbles. — 9 years ago
Good flavor, not too much rye but definitely there. Hearty imperial, very full-bodied. — 10 years ago
Pearls, vintage Chris Craft, night time ride across the lake, low moon flashes behind the trees, underwear in your pocket this time. The green flash of the aurora borealis comes out of nowhere, a slow serpentine sine-wave pulsing across the Milky Way. — 10 years ago
Green apple jolly rancher. — 7 years ago
Pale yellow in color with aromas of lemon, green apple, and honey. Tart and mineral on the palate with slightly waxy texture and 12.5% alcohol. Made from the Golden Aligoté grape which finds its highest expression in Bouzeron where it is championed by Aubert de Villaine, co-owner of DRC. Imported by Kermit Lynch. Paired nicely with oysters. — 7 years ago
Smells like good yeasty bread, tastes like green melon and herbs (dill?) with a little bit of honey on top. Really strange trip of a blend 👌🏼 — 8 years ago
No surprise to find green aromas in a franc, especially in 2011, but this has enough texture and depth to balance it out. — 9 years ago
This is the real beer, from Alpine, not Green Flash, picked up at the brewery, much better, not as good as their Nelson, but very good — 9 years ago
Agreed. Hop monster. Rounds nicely with hints of caramel. — 10 years ago

Small Green Everything from Other Half is such a good, light hazy IPA. A session beer that demands a session. — 6 years ago
