Jan 23, 2010 Bottle: Pours pumpkin in colour, big off-white head. Heavy lemon and orange aroma, lots of floral hops. No question this is a big daddy IPA. Then, the unexpected in the flavour. Toffee and bread, pepper and grapefruit, and some massive citrusy hopping. Extremely oily mouthfeel it just coats the tongue. Share it with friends, the first few sips were incredible but this one can wear you down if you hold on too long. Great stuff.

Jan 22, 2010 Pours clear orange with a thick white head. Aroma of sweet grapefruit, zesty lemon, pine, sweet hops. Taste is perfectly balanced between bitter resinous hops and lighter citrus flavor. Dry short finish. Nothing harsh but incredibly hoppy.

Jan 20, 2010 22oz bomber. Not much of a hiss when cracking it open but wow. I had this one when they used to distribute to Maryland in the early 2000s and wasn’t that blown away with it. Just had it again in 2010 and I’m blown away. Hazy, glowing amber-orange color, with a patchy, soapy head. The aroma really does capture those exotic fruit scents. There is certainly some citrus in the flavor as well. The palate of this beer is what sets it apart...so clean and drinkable. Somehow mellow and full and complex at the same time. Wow, one of the best IIPAs out there..for real. Big ups, you overpriced bandits!

Jan 16, 2010 Pours a nice orange-tinged golden color with a full, soapy head in a large mug. Very fruity aromatic, almost peach like, to the smell. Hops aroma is nicely tucked in. Taste is sharply bitter citrus well blended with a nice malty backbone. Alcohol is unnoticeable in the taste. There is a nice kick up front followed by a long duration on the tongue of hops, citrus, and malt blend.
I bought this for comparison with Dogfish Head 120 IPA and 90 IPA. While I like them better than this I have to say that the Dreadnaught has a nice subtlety to it.
This is a great beer. I love IPA’s, though, so I might be somewhat biased towards them. Hops is where it’s at.
