draft at mad mex in state college pa about year and a half ago. I am a sucker for a good ipa and I love transformers so I had to try this beer right away. light orange in color and a distict citrus smell and hops. The beer is bitter because of the hops but amazing for hop lovers.

GABF 2007. A pale orange-golden beer with a thin orangey head. The aroma is sweet with notes of over ripe fruit and perfumy hops. The flavor is sweet with primary notes of perfumy hops, leading to a dry bitter finish where a floral note lingers.

Growler filled at Capone’s. Pours a translucent golden copper/amber with an average size bubbly off white head that left light lacing. Aroma was a handful of fresh hops, very floral, sweet citrus with some nice sweet caramel malt. Flavor of very green hops, a little earthy, pine, grapefruit, mixed citrus, some sweet caramel malt, light hop bitterness with a nice balance of malty sweetness. Well done Imp. IPA.b 12%...would never had believed it.

Draught @ Capone’s. Amber/ruby with a light foamy head. Aroma of murky hops, resinous piney hops with a bit of citrus and light malt aromas. Flavor is initially syrupy & sweet then immediately overwhelmed by the piney resin flavor of the hops. Slightly grassy with a candied fruit finish and very heavy palate with sticky finish.

Draft at Capone’s. Cloudy orange. Aroma of oily fresh hops; pine and citrus. Not really balanced, but there is some malt in the back. Oily and bitter finish.

Draft at Capone’s. Surprising Murky brown /copper color. Fruity hoppy nose. The taste was sweet with crazy skunky hop flavor. Thick and syrupy mouthful. This brew tasted young. Still pretty good though.
