Sep 25, 2009 Thanks to Redlight for this awesome brew! Hazy orange light amber color. Insanely hoppy citrus aroma, pungent. The aroma of sex panther "singes the nostrils". Crisp tasty malty body with a huge citrus hop bitterness. Great balance and wonderful display of hops. Excellent.

Dec 1, 2008 Updated: Jan 5, 2009(10/29/08) Draught sample at the brewpub in Stockton. Hazy orange color with a white head. Aroma of citrus hops, some fruits and light maltiness. Sweet malty flavor with cookies, caramel, biscuity notes and a bitter hoppy finish with some citrus and alcohol notes. Medium-bodied. Good but not amazing. 7/4/7/3/15=3.6

Sep 20, 2009 My 100th DIPA rating. 22 oz bottle. Clear amber with a pocked balsa head. Nose is orange, candi and peppery pine. Crisp, lively and juicy with creamy hops and resin. Taste is caramel, grass, nectarine and grapefruit pith. Not too bitter or sweet make this an easy drinking imperial.

Sep 8, 2009 Dark orange color with a fluffy head. Aroma is not as big as the flavor. Some pine and citrus hops bordering semi tropical. Flavor is very bitter and oily bit a big body and tons of grapefruit and pine earthy hops. Lingering but nice. Very well balanced.

Mar 18, 2007 Updated: Apr 29, 2008Courtesy aspidites and stoutlover72. Hazy burnt orange and a small layer of off white foam. Nose is floral, spicy, resinous, pine trees, skunk (good one), and pungent past ripe melons and tangerines. Same flavors with emphasis on floral, spicy, fruity hops. Malt support gives it some body, but that’s it. Medium/full body, balanced carbonation. Easy to drink. Great IIPA.

Feb 28, 2007 Updated: Apr 9, 2008Re-rate from bomber, courtesy SoLan. Awesome pineapple character aroma on nose and taste. The taste, while being smacked in the face by a pineapple, is still smooth and accessible as a study in hops. Absolutely sick.

12 oz bottle from stoutlover72. Dark copper in color with dark ruby tints. Thin head, but more head than one usually sees from a DIPA. Aroma is aggressively hoppy, floral, and alcoholic. Grapefruit rind and lemon present as well. Taste has a smack of hops to begin and ends with a flush of grapefruit character that lingers a bit. Some heat in the finish from the alcohol. A very nice DIPA, definitely has some unique qualities to it.
