COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A massive brew that is enormously aromatic with huge hop flavors wonderfully structured with a great malt body. The flavor comes on with huge notes of citrus, pine and resin which last into the crisp dry finish.

Bottle shared by a friend. Pours clear amber with a thick white head. Malty and piney nose with a bit of citrus. Flavor starts malty, then turns to pine and grass before a sweet DIPA finish.

24 karat pour with some burnt tangerine highlights and a fluffy eggshell cap. Extremely fragrant aroma of grapefruit pith, Ponderosa, earthy lemongrass, and peppery spice. Flavor is assertive also with bright orange peel, juicy tangelo, and tropical fruits like mango and papaya. Subtle evergreen and caramal notes for balance. Nice, oily mouthfeel that sticks to the teeth and gums. Delicious!

Huge citrus nose, slightly metallic, simcoe in the middle, and blood on the finish. Not terrible, but seems a little overrated.

Rien de bien complexe ni de savoureux, bon malt, bonne amertume, décente buvabilité. Bon, sans plus.

Pretty solid IPA. Good malt, interesting hop flavor, nothing really transcendent but a good beer.

Bomber pour..2.69 close out bin at stateline...not going in with high expectations on this and to tell you the truth this was an enjoyable double..quite easy to drink with almost no reference pt to the high abv..pretty well done with biscuit malt winning out..could easily polish off a few of these in one setting..

Beautiful DIPA. Spirited copper pour with strong grapefruit aroma. One of the more pine-tasting IPAs I've had, which is fantastic. Resin flavor under that, on a solid malt backbone. Requisite bitterness but not overpowering. A bit of lingering sweetness surprisingly. Another spectacular DIPA from a brewery I've never tried before! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Pine like flavor unique. 9.5% ABV. Tasty yet unique flavor makes this worth a shot. Try it.

Pours a two-finger cream head that fades slowly leaving some lace. Clear amber color. Medium-strong carbonation and medium bodied. Nose is grapefruit hops, flavor is grapefruit hops and hints of caramel. Lingering bitter finish. $8.75 for a 22oz bottle from Bert’s Better Beers Hooksett, NH

On tap at Hot City Pizza, cloudy pour, medium head, nice flavor. Prefer some more hoppiness; but still solid. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
