Jul 20, 2008 bomber shared thanks to zinister. Pours a clear orange with a thin whiite head. Nose is of orange citrus. Taste is of orange rind, but seems a bit artificial. Mouthfeel is medium and bitter finish.

Jul 20, 2008 Amber color with a pear, dry hop aroma. Alcohol is very prevelant like most Imperial IPA’s. A little unbalanced, dry, hoppy, medicinal taste and dry finish. Bites at first but mellows and becomes much more drinkable as it gets warmer. Medicinal taste dissipates and the sweetness emerges. I would hold onto this for when the climate gets a bit cooler and not in July.

Jul 20, 2008 Two bottles shared with blankboy, HogTownHarry, jerc, mabel & tupalev - courtesy of HogTownHarry & blankboy. Deep orange with a small off-white head. Solidly hopped aroma and flavour - lots of orange zest, a bit of pine resin - with just enough malt to keep it under control. Long, well-bittered finish. Medium bodied. Quite enjoyable.

Jul 19, 2008 Pours an amber color with an off-white head. Aroma is of citrus and pine hops and caramel malts. Flavor is pretty strong of the citrus and pine hops. Finishes bitter with a lingering flavor. Wasn’t quite as strong as I was hoping.

Jul 16, 2008 22oz Bottle: Pours an orange color with a small light tan head that mostly disappears. The aroma is definitely on the sweeter citrus side with mostly ripe orange coming through. The flavor is more malty than I expected with a hint of pine and citrus coming through again. The mouth feel is medium with a hint of lingering bitterness. Overall this is a well balanced beer as many have said but for an IIPA I would hope for a bigger hop profile.

Jul 15, 2008 2008-07-11. Orange amber body with a modest off-white head. (3+) Decent amount of hops in the aroma, clementines, citrus seeds. (7+) Pleasant hoppy bitterness throughout, light resin and a melange of mild citrus flavours. (7+) Smooth average palate. Quite drinkable, rather pleasant. Still, I’d like a bit more oomph to the citrus and hops to take it up a notch. Bottle shared by Blankboy and HogTownHarry

Jul 15, 2008 Amber with a nice off white head. Aroma is a very floral and piney hoppiness, light soapiness and maltiness. Taste is a light hoppiness (floral, citrus) with a nice caramel sweetness to it also. I really easy drinking IIPA.
