Apr 30, 2009 Draught at Najas Place. Pours clear yellow with an average, white head, mostly lasting with good lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (grain, meal, cereal), heavy hop (perfume, pine, spruce, citrus), average yeast (sweat) with notes of pear, apple, and peach. Medium bodied, sticky texture, lively carbonation, and a bitter finish. Long duration, light sweetness, heavy acidity and bitterness.

Apr 27, 2009 I have had this many times this year and again last night. Aromas of pine, citrus, apricots and hops. Flavors of the same including a little pepper and spice. Very nice for a IPA and I look forward to future releases.

Apr 26, 2009 22 oz bomber from padrefan98, thanks Jon. Wow this is simply an IPA and not a double, very impressive. Pours a golden orange with an average size bright white foamy head. Aroma is cat piss, grassy hops, citrus and call me nutts but my first impression was also some peanut butter. Body is prefect, medium bodied, medium to slightly strong carbonation with a bitter finish. Flavor is citrus, fresh cut grass, slight pine, biscuit. This one is a big hop bomb for a straight up IPA, not for the nonhop hearted.

Apr 26, 2009 Bottle thanks to WeeHeavySD . Thanks man! Clear, clean golden pour with thick, sticky white head. Nice, strong hoppy aroma. Hops absolutely dominate this ones flavor. Mouthfeel is nice and makes the beer extremely drinkable. Absolutely loved it.

Apr 19, 2009 Bottle. Aroma of bitter and grassy hops . Flavor nearly entirely straight bitter hops for me, just a touch of grass, and if I press myself really hard, a slight hint of mango. Certainly highly drinkable, up there with Pliny in that regard, which I’d bet is why it’s rated so high, but I’d like more character from the hops.
