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.

Mar 4, 2009 On tap at the bull and bush, Dark brown and off-color for a DIPA. The smell is some hops but again deviates from the style. The flavor was strong sweet fruityness and it really doesn’t fit the style. The one thing this beer has going for it is that it really does taste like a double man beer, just not a double IPA.
Serving type: on-tap

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.

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.

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.

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.

Feb 22, 2006 Pours dark red/brown with a creamy thick head. Lots of citrus and pine in the aroma, but also some spice as well. Taste was very malty and very rich in the hops, but not super evident that one hop prevailed, there was decent bitter, flavor and aroma. This was very balanced for being such a big beer. Also pretty smooth too! The alcohol didn’t come through big time (in flavor, anyway). The waitress said it was upwards of 12%. This also had a significant caramel malt character, in fact to the point that I’d almost want to start calling it a barleywine. All in all, I was pleasantly surprised at the man-man. With as crazy hoppy as the Bull & Bush folks are, I was excited to see how fantastically malty this double ipa is.

Jan 5, 2006 On tap @ Bull and Bush 2004 vintage poured a clear reddish brown with a small but lasting amber head. Aromas of carmel, citrus and pine. Palate was light bodied, dry and resiny. Flavors of pine, toffee and some earthiness with a hint of citrus and a lingering dry finish.
