michaelLong (1), Baker City, Oregon, USA does not count Mar 28, 2008 If you didn’t rate this beer above a 4 then you either haven’t tasted it or you don’t like double IPA. Go ahead and drink your Belgian ale and rate those beers. Maybe you are just pissed that you can only get it at the brewery. 86? come on? jcwattsrugger (3724), Florida and, New Jersey, USA Nov 8, 2007 on tap-pours an off white head and gold color. Aroma is mild citrus/grapefruit/lemon (cascade) hops, some medium malt. Taste is mild citrus/grapefruit/lemon (cascade) hops, some medium malt. Ibrew2or3 (1561), Safety Harbor, Florida, USA Nov 5, 2007 Courtesy of jayg. Thanks buddy. Pours clear gold with thin white head. The aroma has a quick punch of grapefruit hops that is sweetened by maltiness. In the flavor the grapefruit hop bitterness hits first. Slowly malt sweetness builds in against the hops toward about midway. As the finish approaches the bitterness re-doubles in strength. There is a hint of sweeter grapefruit hop flavor here and there. hopscotch (4358), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Oct 22, 2007 Bottle... Clear golden ale with a creamy, white head. Good retention. The aroma is a union of juicy pink grapefruit and tropical fruits. Medium to heavy citric bitterness in the flavor. Medium-bodied and dry with fizzy carbonation. Bitter, grape fruity, dry finish. I’m fairly certain jayg provided this one for the Tampa crew to try! jayg (976), Florida, USA Sep 17, 2007 On tap at brewpub. Iced-tea color with a thin white head that left lacing. Nice aroma - mostly grapefruit, but some fresh floral aspects round it out. A lot of grapefruit in the taste and the hop character is strong and lingers on the palate for a while. Well done.
