WOW! This is right up there with some of my favorite DIPA/TIPA. Very hoppy and delicious. Grapefruity and a little tangerine. Excellent finish.

Mar 20, 2010 I’m stunned this gets the rating it does. I found it at some beer lovers bar in Pittsburgh, had been wanting to try it for 2+ years (they don’t sell it in Chicagoland, they clearly didn’t pay off Daley) - and despite the $10 for a flippin’ bottle - I actually thought it was worth it! Granted, some dives charge $5 or $6 for Miller Chelada. Anyhow - just intense hop gloriousness, nice alcohol punch to the face - would a sixer out the door at this place run me $60? That’d be hard to justify on my expense account.

Mar 10, 2010 Updated: Mar 11, 2010Received in trade with Jdskinns (thanks Jari!) Dark ruby hue with slight off-white head. Heavy smell of hops balanced well with strong malt smell. Full bodied. Initially sharp with sweetness in the middle (caramel, "jolly rancher"?). A little dry and bitter again in the finish, which is nice. 12% ABV hidden VERY well! Aweseome!

Mar 9, 2010 This poured a dark orange color with a beige head. Aroma was lots of sweet malts, as well as lots of citrus hops, and alcohol. Flavor was a bit of a let down from the aroma, very sweet and cloying malt, a good bit of hop flavor, but not enough to balance out the loads of malt and alcohol.

Mar 8, 2010 355 ml bottle. Hops take over in aroma, very piny hoppy. Some caramalt aroma, quite strong actually, but stays under the hoppy scent. Some citrus / grapefuit notes as well. Very bitter, all the IBUs are present, but alcohol is well hidden. Sweet caramel malt taste is present all the time and despite the exaggerated IBU’s and alcohol the beer is well balanced. Another? Anytime.

Feb 28, 2010 355 ml bottle. From the US. Thanks Brandman!
Hazy light red colour with tiny off-white head.
Fruity bitter hoppy aroma with resin, grapefruit and soap.
Darkish fruity extremely bitter hoppy flavour with resin, grapefruit and liquorice. Long lasting bitter aftertaste. 12% cannot be tasted. Great Double IPA.

Feb 25, 2010 Bottle at Nachbar in Louisville. Pours red/amber and fairly thick. Has a pungent resinous quality to the nose. Pine sap with some candy caramel notes. The flavor is very hoppy and bitter but also has a distinct sweetness to it from the malts. A bite from the high alcohol is noticable but does not diminish the drinkability, which is, like they say, pretty dangerous. Excellent sticky mouthfeel. Feels like it coats your mouth in bitter, hoppy wondefulness. Not only is the label one of the coolest on the market, this is a very good beer.
