Aug 12, 2009 Cloudy copper pour...Bit of hops in the aroma behind the sweet malt caramel notes...Mild carbonation...Grapefruit hop flavor...Perfect balance of malts...Just a hint of bitterness in the finish...Good stuff

Aug 6, 2009 Golden brown body topped by a thin white head. Hoppy aroma with notes of pine, citrus and apricots. Citrusy-orange hops backed by caramel malts. Pine, maybe even spruce like bitterness. A little booziness in the finish. Not the best Double IPA, but certainly not the worst.

Aug 4, 2009 Bottle. Moderate aromas all around, with roasted and caramel for the malt, orange for the hops, broth for the yeast, and hints of date, cherry, toffee and alcohol. Head is average size, between creamy and frothy, white, with good lacing and is mostly diminishing. Color is hazy orange/tan. Flavor starts moderately sweet and lightly aicdic, then finishes moderately bittersweet. Palate is on the fuller side of medium, between oily and creamy, has a soft carbonation and finishes lightly alcholic and dry. On the sweet side, but an excellent DIPA with a smooth drinkability and no bad characteristics.

Jul 11, 2009 This beer gives a bad name to double IPAs. Do not buy this. Even if it’s free, don’t drink it. Dear Boulder Beer Company, Please stop making this.

Jul 11, 2009 Yuck! Dirty water from the kitchen sink. Whoever designed this just did it to do it. there is no passion in this beer. I used the rest of it to boil sausage in and it ruined my sausage.

Jul 10, 2009 Pours amber with a fully receding head, floaties. Notes of thick pear syrup, mango, pine and tropical fruit, and a bit of oxidation. Full to heavy bodied with light resins and moderate carbonation. An older bottle, deserves a rerate.

does not count  Jul 9, 2009 Way too malty and caramely for and IPA, especially a double IPA. They needed to add some stronger bittering hops, the Amarillo are not doing the trick.
foundmd (163), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
Jul 5, 2009 22oz bottle. Pours golden brown with a medium off-white head. Aroma of toasted malts with caramel. Surprisingly little hop flavor for the style. Huge malt profile with caramel flavors dominating. Very smooth and creamy with a mildly bitter finish. Alcohol very well concealed. Different for the style, but definitely a nice beer.
