Commercial Description:
Only 120 precious barrels were brewed, adding more than half a ton of extra malt and twice the amount of Amarillo hops, so prepare your self for a full sensory explosion. The double dry-hop addition elevates the grapefruit-like aroma and flavor to an outrageous intensity, while the added malt raises the alcohol level from 7% all the way to 10% by volume.

Crushed with Jakebra. Pretty nice DIPA. A little scratchy. Sticky, with lots of bittering hops. Flavor ends in a slight dishsoap taste, but its not overpowering and doesnt destroy the beer like Left Hand did.

A very tasty double IPA from Boulder Beer. This was a strong but smooth IPA with a hoppy and almost creamy texture. Overall very good! Pours golden with a short head and traces of yeast.

nearly more of a strong ale or even barley wine then an IIPA on account of the extra malt. the huge malt bill is apparent in the balance evidenced by the chewy and substantial mouthfeel which temper the huge hops well. fruit and citrus are subdued and muted almost behind the massive grain. an excellent big beer none the less which almost loses points just for being classified with the real hop bombs.

Bottle at the Headkeeper (Greensburg). Pours a hazy yellow, soapy white head. Aroma is citrus and pine. Flavor is more of the same, maybe a touch of grass in the background. Not much in the bitterness department.

Bomber (on Sale $3.99). Best bang for its buck! Poured a dark orange cloud, nice fluffy head and some lacing. Smell is of lots of citrus, with oranges lemons and a bit of grapefruit, with just a touch of pine trees as well. There’s a some hints of bread dough malts in the background, along with a little bit of a sugary aroma. There’s absolutely no hint of the 10.5% ABV at all. Taste; this is a bit more piney upfront than it was in the aroma, with the citrus being secondary, with oranges and lemons. Nice brew.

Maybe an IPA can be defined by the amount of hops, even if it citrusy and not as piney. If you define a IPA by the piney bitterness, this wont cut it, but if you define IPA by the hops, then the citrusy flavor pounded in this bottle is a good inturpritation. Excellent on the nose, with grapefruit and lemon. There are plenty of grass and pine hints there, too, just not as prominate. Tastes sweet and citric, some piney hints, followed by some sweet malts, grains of baking bread, and finishes sweet and smooth and lasting aftertase. Very good beer.

Not really hoppy enough to qualify as an IIPA if you ask me, but a relatively decent beer with a solid citrus taste.
