3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pour is an orange with a large white head. Aroma is deffinatly a pine hop with almost a peach scent. Flavor is more resin and pine hops with some more peach and maybe apricot fruitness. Not exactly sweet but this is deffinatly fruity. Deffinatly not an over the top hop bomb, although they are there, but the fruit aspect makes this a defferent IIPA to look for.

Aroma has a very earthy hop profile-pine resin and grain. Palate is really nice, with more of a dirty/earthy hop flavor and great balance.

Slightly hazy golden with visible carbonation. Egg-white head... looks good. Citrushop flavor, fuller hop palate. Nice. On tap at the Shep

I can’t figure out what exactly I didn’t like about this. Comparatively for an IPA that is. Dark draft pour at Fork. Medium head. Very hoppy musty fruity taste. Kind of a sweet choker. Dunno. Didn’t enjoy it for some reason

UPDATED: FEB 11, 2012 22 ozer, Orange golden clear hue with white foamy head, diminishing, fair lacing, sweet carmel and resin smell, on the thicker side, more sweet than anything else, some peach, nectar bouquet, bitterness is well balanced, note quite as bitter as advertised and alcohol is pretty well hidden, good one to split, re-rated: in retrospect better than initially reated

On tap at Champs. Gold with white head. Aroma is tropical fruit. Flavor is tropical fruit, mustiness and some caramel sweetness. Interesting but not my thing.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 18/20
Great beer. Aroma is amazingly strong hops. The taste is best described danky and resinous which is a really good thing the bitterness is medium high.

750 ml. pours a copper orange with a nice white head. Aromas of pine, resin, grapefruit, a big hop bomb. Nicely balanced with bitter hops but a nice malt backbone, a great beer

This poured a semi cloudy bright oranage color with a beige head. Aroma was of herbala nd citrusy hops, and soem caramel and biscuit malt. Flavor was a bit of a disappointment, very sweet, with notes of fruit and bitterness, but way too much residual sugar to be top notch.
