JoelCornell (2), St. Paul, Minnesota, USA does not count Jun 13, 2008 This is one of the best IPAs I’ve had. What keeps this beer from being a 5 is a subjective desire for a little more flavor; give me some spice or a hint of something that I’m not used to, and it could be perfect. That being said, this is a great beer. 12many (231), Ohio, USA Jun 12, 2008 Amber pour with a nice citrus piney hops aroma. Wonderful hoppy bitter taste. A good IPA. robbmotiwalla (50), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA Jun 10, 2008 pours a hazy orange color and has an orange taste up front. followed by sticky and syrupy piney flavor. massive flavor, not for the weak of heart Rogueone (506), I F&ckin’ hate those guys from, Ohio, USA Jun 10, 2008 Thanks Goudy, Bottle: This is like drinking the forest floor. Aroma and flavor are intense spruce pine. Citrus rind. Coniferous head. Slight buttery quality to the hop. Lingers on the tongue for quite some time. Bit warm. BossHossBikes (147), Tennessee, USA Jun 9, 2008 Updated: Jun 10, 2008February 2008 Bottle, Batch 7. Pours a translucent golden orange with a pale head and some really nice lacing. The aroma is very, very piney with lots of grapefruit and sweet pear. Much like the aroma, there is a lot of pine in the flavour as well. A well rounded caramel sweetness lingers in the back with the more subtle pear notes. Grapefruit is very up front almost right next to the pine. Towards the finish, the sweetness surprisingly lingers around for a little while, slowly becoming overpowered by the bitterness. Pear lingers on alongside with the sweetness and fades around the same time. Grapefruit and pine lasts a little longer before straight up bitterness just outlasts everything else. Mmm, delicious. buckyp (32), Rio Rancho, New Mexico, USA Jun 6, 2008 Bomber pour. Love this beer! Wonderful aroma of resin and hops. Balanced by malt flavor of slight caramel flavor. Finish is lingering with grapefruit notes and aftertaste with malty sweetness. My favorite IPA variety. topher40409 (36), gainesville, Florida, USA Jun 4, 2008 bottle batch 8- dark copper 2-3 finger head. lots of malt and citrus/floral hops in the aroma. very sweet caramel malt, sweetness is somewhat balanced by grassy/citrus hops. a pleasant lingering fruity flavor with some noticable hop presence. not as much hop punch for an IIPA but a decent brew none the less. the alcohol is well disquised with only a slight slight warming of the mouth. Jukkabro (2981), Tampere, Finland Jun 2, 2008 Dark orange colored, cloudy appearance. Little yellow head. Rich aroma fo course: fruits, peach, flowers, grass, mild alcohol, sweetness still present. Medium to full bodied. Flavor starts with perfume and strong sweetness, aftertaste turns to sur and dry with mild fruits and alcohol. Not too balanced with too dry ending.
