Medium statured light tan head, retention is good with a thin clingy lace. Hazy gold/orange appearence. Sweet aroma of fruits, grass, pine needles and hops with notes of grape fruits. Big piney hop flavors, grapefruit, grass and some earthy notes as well. Big hoppy flavors abound with maybe a touch of caramel malts shining through. Finish is big and bold, hoppy, dry with a magnificent bite. A really massive IPA, I really thought this was a IIPA. Top 3 to 5 IPA i’ve had. Thanks again Brian for this great treat. tarheels86 (734), Washington DC, USA

HOLY $%@$!.Pours a clear, light amber with a two-finger, creamy, off-white head. Good retention and lacing. Okay lacing. Aroma is huge fresh grapefruit, tangerine, peaches and cream ice cream, huge butterscotch, caramel. Taste is fresh, citrusy, wet hops with butterscotch and a massive bitterness permeating throughout. Buttery, creamy on the palate that leaves a sort of oily mouthfeel. Wow. Phillies2008Champs (29), Phoenixville, Pennsylvania, USA
