LtJudge (341), Muskego, Wisconsin, USA May 7, 2008 Pours a orangeish-amber color with white head. Aromas of citrus, grapefruit amd caramel malt. Great citrus grapefruit flavor with a generous malt backing. Body is rather "thick" as well. Great bitter finish. Not Bad! Thanks Brewblackhole! Beerlando (989), Orlando, Florida, USA May 7, 2008 Pours a crystal clear orange-amber body. A large, spongy, cream colored head settles slowly, leaving thick, clumpy, cobweb lacing on the glass. The nose is both massively malty and hoppy, with a huge, buttery toffee base and striking orange and grapefruit hops. Flavors include more of the same, with the two contrasting elements dueling one another for top billing. Toffee and buttered toast make a strong showing, only to be countered by sharp, bitter grapefruit and dry, grassy hops. A thick, substantial body gets a bit syrupy, leading to a heavy feeling in the stomach. Bitter grapefruit lingers on the tongue for ages. I’m a big fan of Amarillo hops, so this brew sits well with me, but I honestly think I’d give the slight edge to the regular Mojo for its supreme drinkability. Still, this is a very, very nice brew. Enniskillen (1449), Port Angeles, Washington, USA May 5, 2008 Amber with a thin cream head. Aroma is piney hops, lightly soapy, light maltiness. Taste is hoppy, caramel, malt, and an orange peel bitterness. IrishBoy (1895), Bakersfield, California, USA May 5, 2008 Bomber from fiver29; nose of piney hops; light orange with a medium off-white head; flavor of caramel and light hop bitterness; very light for a DIPA! undsioux7 (446), Cologne, Minnesota, USA May 2, 2008 Pours orange/gold with awhite head. Aroma of flowery and grapefruit hops. taste the same with just a bit of caramel malt backbone. Didn’t really do it for me, but not bad.
