Apr 17, 2008 Smells like hops, tastes like hops. What else CAN I say? Slight smoky aroma and woody flavor, but above all else, massive IBUs! Malts create a smooth and hearty backdrop for what can only be described as ludicrous bitterness.

Apr 16, 2008 22ozz bomber. Pours a cloudy amber with a thin off-white head which dissipated quickly. Nose was pine and citrus with sweet malt to balance. Taste was the same as the nose. Mouthfeel was creamy and sweet with a very hoppy bitter bite. Nice for Avery.

Apr 13, 2008 The bottle poured like honey with fluffy orange hued head. Aroma of sweet oranges and earhy hops, intense fruity sugar. The flavor is sweet as well, sweetness very level with IPA hops. It’s very good, and balanced in it’s overall intensity, with a bitterness approaching anesthetic. Very nice.

Apr 12, 2008 This was a very drinkable beer for 102 IBUs.
Strong aroma with a good citrus hop flavor. Sweet with some malt coming through. Lingers a while.

Apr 12, 2008 On draft. Pours dark copper gold with a finger’s frothy white head. Nose is citrus and grass; mouthfeel has some creaminess from the use of malts (which also deepen the color a bit), but the hops dominate through the lingering bitter finish. A very drinkable, tasty IIPA I don’t think I’d get tired of.

Apr 11, 2008 Pours a hazy dark amber body with a nice creamy, frothy head that left excellent lacing. The aroma is a strong balance of citrus and pine. On the palate, it definitely has a bite to it, and at times a bit too strong. It finishes a little dry with a plenty of bitter. Smooth and full-bodied. Definitely don’t notice the alcohol here, which I say is a bit impressive. Pretty good, but just lacking in complexities.
