3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Slightly hazedgolden orange color with a thick head thatcompacts itself nicely and sticks around leaving scattered lacing as it collapses. Hops dominate aroma with pine, citrus, orange, peaches and nectarine. Medium bodied, low carbonation, syrupy chewy mouthfeel. Flavor kind of one dimensional. Mostly hops and lacking a good malt punch I find in others of the style. Alcohol is well hidden. Bitter finish yet fades quickly. Overall a decent brew just not tops in the style. Thanks to Snowtiger for the sample.

Bottle. Big hop aromas and flavours of perfumey sweet ripe fruit. Spicy, grapefruit, pine and resin flavors dominate a nice sweet soft grain profile and palate. Ends a long plea sent bitter. A very nice ipa.

4.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Poured from a 12 oz bottle into a tulip glass. Pours copper-amber color with a light tan head that leaves little lacing. Has a fruity citrus aroma that is very pleasant with a hint of grape, pint and maybe caramel with an undertone of alcohol. Initial sweet taste with citrus hops and light malt with a bitter back end with a nice lingering citrus and hop flavor. Has a full body with a decent mouthfeel. Overall a great brew that I would drink again.

3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
UPDATED: MAY 4, 2012 Fresh hops in the aroma with loads of grapefruit, pineapple, resin, eucalyptus, and caramelized sugar. The taste is consistent with the aroma. It lingers, but not for long. As DIPAs go, this is smooth and gentle on your tongue, almost refreshing and soothing. Medium body, light carbonation. Have more than two bottles and it will start to betray you—the sneaky little bastard is packed with more alcohol than you’d know from the aroma or taste. Great beer.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Served on tap. Deep golden brown, head disappears quickly. The smell is fruity and earthy, very faint hints of malt peep through. Taste follows accordingly, with the fruity sweetness hitting you up front which fades into an earthy, hoppy bite. The sweetness lingers. Light carbonation, goes down easy. Overpriced, but a good beer.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Pours a hazy golden yellow with a nice wispy white head. Nose is all citrus, predominantly grapefruit with some mango. Taste is full of flavor, mostly citrus and heavy tasteful bitterness. Finish is somewhat dry and long, alcohol hidden well. Great and flavorful, drink for the taste , obviously not a thirst quencher. Nice ! Quaff Score 8 /10. Beware.....for hopheads only.
