AllAboutStout (595), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Oct 5, 2008 Pours a very clear gold in color with only a ring of froth. Smell is very piney hops. Taste is very green, brutally bitter hops. This is very fresh and very green. Very bittering and tongue ripping. This is a aggressive and brutal onslaught on your palate. The bottle is incredible, I could only imagine how this is on draft. Wow.
Sammy (3242), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Nov 27, 2008 tasty excellent IPA. Orange appearance with white head. Grapefruit aroma, very nice.Very smooth, very drinkable. Great resiny hop. One of the best IPAs I ever had, and the bottle picture is cute too.
lemasney (314), Trenton, New Jersey, USA Nov 2, 2008 Had a chance to taste this on tap at Bella Vista’s reopening in Philadelphia. I ended up losing my car at the event due to theft, but it was almost worth it to taste Sculpin on tap. It’s that good. Wasatch (187), Layton, Utah, USA Oct 25, 2008 22oz. Bomber
Pours a very nice hazy golden light orange color, very nice carbonation, awesome one-finger plus thick creamy off-white head, which leaves some small islands and sticky lacing behind. The nose is slightly malty, big time hops, some scents of lemon/orange, and piney. The taste is slighlty sweet, nice malt notes, very nice hoppiness, with some lemon/orange tones, and some pinyness. Medium body, a very nice chewyness with a slightly dry/bitter finish. Very drinkable, a truely awesome IPA, highly recommended. Thanks Bill!
bp (340), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 5, 2008 Cask at Bella Vista Grand Opening: pours a golden amber with a thin white head, aroma is full of citrus and hops (amazing aroma), taste is hoppy with some citrus, very easy to drink. This is a very nice IPA, I had assumed it was a DIPA,
