| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 14, 2009 12oz bottle. Dark melon color with a decent head of creamy, lumpy, lacy froth. Resinous and bitter aroma. Flavors are bitter and spicy. This is a rough and tumble IPA. The only smoothness to this is in the finish. pneifert (2), Erdenheim, Pennsylvania, USA does not count | 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 12, 2009 Had a funky initial aroma - no joke, almost like BO. That soon gave way to a more traditional, quite enjoyable one. Taste was pretty different from aroma - sweet, fruity, yet bitter; very well-rounded and hid alcohol just enough. Taste and feel were superb. Good bitter aftertaste. OldGrowth (1408), North Carolina, USA

(3+) Really interesting, pleasant hoppy aroma up front. Sort of a fruity character to the hops that is not quite citrus, which carries over into the flavour as well. Pleasant bitterness throughout. Interesting fruit notes (akin to lychee) with a pleasant bitterness throughout that lingers. Average palate. Pleasant, interesting hops!

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 17/20 | Jun 7, 2009 Bu au Mondial 2009, le 5 juin (#15). Rousse orange, peu de collet. Arome d’houblon amère plaisant, un peu d’agrume. Goût d’houblon très amère, une peu de fruits tropicaux, mais la finission amère est sec. Elle est raide au goût mais très buvable!
