4.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
On tap at Pinocchio’s. The description said melon, which excited me. Melon in the nose and melon up front in the flavor. Awesome. Alcohol is hot, but wonderfully so. Moderate to high hops, citrus dominating. Pretty awesome.

Pours Albright golden colour with little to no head or lacing. Slightly floral aroma but mostly alcohol. Tastes of herbs (thyme, basil) and alcohol. This is a nice beer. Liked it but be careful

Bottle opened, thanks to Steve for the pour! Nice hazy orange pour with white head, aroma brought notes of nice pine and grapefruit hops, touch of caramel but nice big hop aromas. Taste is nice pine and bitter orange peel, some slight caramel and lemon notes finish fairly pine and bitter. Nicely done, simple but tasty!

aroma, flora hoppiness,critusy,crisp pop in the nose, light to meduim amber hue, white head, lacing, taste, full frontal hop attack,but well balanced, by the malt profile, then the bittnerness comes through in the end, overall, Good, I like bitter IPS, this one is easy drinkin, not super bitter, good brew!
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
This beer is decent. I must say the 11.5% seems more like 15% as you drink a few and your flying. The beer has a good taste but buyer beware this stuff is potent. Hints of grapefruit make this beer enjoyable. The Minds bottom line: If you have one you will crave a second.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Cloudy orangish pour with little white head and little lacing. Aromas of citrus, mainly grapefruit, and some caramel malts. Taste is sweet, little bitter, and alcohol. Palate is medium bodied, dry finish, but short. Overall, a pretty big beer, especially for my first of the night. Not bad, but I think the 11.5% abv creates an alcohol taste that overwhelms the other flavors. I wanted more grapefruit and citrus.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
(12oz bottle). Pours a slightly hazy orange-copper color with off-white head. Aroma has plenty of resinous hops along with some grapefruit and green mango. Taste is sweet with some bitterness, but mostly sweet. Medium bodied with a sticky texture. Bitter, but pleasant, finish. Not sure on the age of this, but its not as bitter or hop forward as I expected. Still, its quite tasty regardless. Alcohol is warming but well hidden. I liked this and I hope to get to try it on tap one day.
4.2 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours a light copper with thin white head. Has a floral grapefruit aroma. Tastes strong and hoppy, but is smooth and finishes with a bang. Love it.
