Feb 26, 2008 12 oz bottle: Pours a tempting amber and ruby with a thick, sticky head. A nice mix of spicy and citrusy hops meet the nose. A blanket of ethery alcohol warms the hops. The body is sweet, caramel and bread, layered with intense grapefruit, orange and tangerine. Rindy hops take over from there, leading this into a bitter finish. A very well built DIPA - not quite as complex as you would expect from a high ABV brew, but still good.

Sep 19, 2007 Pale gold color with big white head. The taste was mainly citrus grapefruit. Nothing too special just a solid beer.

Apr 30, 2007 Pours a pale golden yellow with just the thinnest film for a head. A sweet sticky piney mango and grapefruit. A little bit of alcohol sticks out. This is what I envision a double IPA smelling like. Reminiscent of Ruination, but more malt. The body is a little on the thin side, with low carbonation and a bit sticky. The flavors are in line with the aroma, with the exception of a few off flavors. Sweet pale malt, some unripe mango, alcohol, definitely pine/bread mold. Sweet fruity finish with a little diacetyl and a bitter grapefruit and alcohol aftertaste. Tastes a little wheaty in terms of malt bill, but I doubt it’s in there.

Aug 9, 2008 At RateBeerians tasting session. Thanks to the Menendez Brothers. Bottle: Very oily and heavy, grapefruitiness but missed the hops punch.

Apr 28, 2007 Not much aroma, especially for the style. Slight citrus hops. Goodly bitter, and a slight grapefruit on the finish. Fairly malty. Alcohol doesn’t seem noticeable especially because this isn’t very cold. Pretty well balanced. I think the regular mojo might seem more hoppy.

Sep 15, 2008 Bottle from Canals. Clear copper/golden color with a medium sized white head. Citrus pine aroma. The flavor is pine right up front with a citrus ending. A little thin but still good.
