bitter (1137), Henderson, Nevada, USA Apr 28, 2008 served at the brewpub in a goblet. feeling rather like a night at the round table with the british facade. Dark brown redish clear hue. Tan off white head and a slightly hoppy nose to follow. Pretty nice in the mouth feels like theres a pretty decent abv here, slight ember. A bit sweet caramel flavors and hoppy rose buds nicely rounded and good. waolsen (906), Littleton, Colorado, USA Oct 2, 2006 tap. hazy thick orange pour. soapy head that fades fast. floral hops, thick malt aroma. Palate is just like the appearance. A nice thick hop bomb with nice caramel malts. good beer. Braudog (3461), Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates Sep 24, 2006 Draft in a tulip at the brewpub, 9/11/06: Midnight red with an eruption of tan foam; not much of an aroma, surprisingly, because this is soup-thick with a warming richness, almost like an eisbock more than an IPA. Doesn’t hold a candle to Great Divide’s Titan, but this is good. harlequinn (2746), Tacoma, Washington, USA Jul 17, 2006 MMmmm, this was almost candy sweet! Lots of flavor, huge amounts of hops and a rich double sweet and tasty malt profile. Lots of rich citrus and grapefruit, and a lip numbing bit of fresh pine needles. Lots of pie crust maltiness, that just melts and matches perfectly with the hops. This is a huge beer to be that well balanced, but it is. This is one of the best of this style that I have ever tried. LolaLovesBeer (17), Denver, Colorado, USA Mar 24, 2006 I had this at the Bull & Bush Pub, what a great place! It was super dark amber with a tiny tan head and it smelled of hops and burnt caramel (and feet). The flavor was of malt and major hops. I don’t know if I’m ready for a beer this big. I better stick with the Man Beer.
