Pours a nice bright orange with smallish white head. Smell is fresh bright and citrusy with orange. Taste is citrusy with sweet orange and moderate bitterness. Some alcohol flavor in there too which hinders it. A bit too alcoholic tasting, but otherwise nice.

Sep 1, 2008 Hazy amber with a thin white head. Aroma of floral and citrus hops, resin and pine. Taste…. Holy hops. Floral, pine, citrus, orange. Semi-bitter finish but seems fairly balanced even with the over abundance of hops.

Aug 19, 2008 Sampled at the 2008 Music City Brewers Fest. Orange with a creamy off-white head that left good lacing. Nice floral and grapefruit aroma from this one. Monster hop flavors of grapefruit and pine with an enjoyable caramel malt backing. Medium to full body with moderate bitterness throughout. Very nice DIPA!

Aug 13, 2008 Draft at the brewpub. A hazy golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with strong grassy notes of hops. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of grass and hops as well as lighter notes of grapefruit and an alcohol note showing up very late and which also burns lightly in the throat.

Aug 11, 2008 Rating #300. Pours amber with one finger white frothy lasting head. Lacing is elegant. Aroma is quite grassy, floral, and loaded with grapefruit. Flavor is powerful and in your face, but suprisingly managable. Lots of floral and grassy hops with a bit of a sweeter malty aspect. Palate is a bit thin, but quite smooth and drinkable. Coating, sticky, and resinous. A nice example of an extreme style.
