Aroma: The nose is clean and hoppy, with grapefruit, citrus, orange rind, and some pine
Appearance: It pours a mostly clear orange color with a white head and mid-plus sticky lace
Flavor: It has a nice hopppy flavor, with lots of citrus type notes and some dank, resiny hops too
Palate: The body is medium-plus, it feels sticky, with average-plus carbonation, and a dry finish
Overall Impression:
I was pretty impressed by this one. There’s a really solid citrus and resin style hop profile going on here. Nice stuff. To be honest, I wasn’t expecting it to be this good.

Bottled. An average offering from the brewery at best. Boletus and resinous hops throughout. Mediocre.
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 Welley_Alves (102) - Sao Paulo, BRAZIL - MAY 24, 2013
Maravilhosa breja de Boonville, EUA. Um Imperial IPA com cor âmbar, boa formacao de espuma, com ótimo aroma cítrico, lembrando grama e frutas amarelas. Na boca, sente-se logo o dulçor do malte, com perfeito equilíbrio com o amargor intenso que vem a seguir e que permanece ate o ultimo gole. Retrogosto amargo e duradouro. Excelente breja!

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 jgb9348 (3970) - Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia, USA - MAY 20, 2013
Slightly hazy copper coloured body with an orange glow and a thick, three centimetre tall tan head - nice. Aroma of resin, pineapple, pine and a thick sweetness, like honey or corn syrup. Medium to Full-bodied; Strong resinous flavour with some pine and deep grapefruity malt noticeable coupled with the rich sweetness that lingers. Aftertaste shows mostly malt and sweetness, with a hint of very resinous hoppiness and a prolonged bitterness. Overall, a decent Imperial IPA with perhaps too much bitterness or depth and not enough hoppiness and balance between the hops and malt. Nice to try, but not my favourite. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Total Wine in McLean, Virginia on 02-April-2013 for US$2.49 sampled at home in Washington on 20-May-2013.
