Beerapprentice (207) - Hopatcong, New Jersey, USA - JUL 18, 2010
Pours a coppery orange colour with a thin white head. Aroma of citrus, hops, and mango reminiscent of Three Floyd’s   Dreadnaught. Just heavenly!! Now, the flavour is less heavenly but still pretty good. The hops are bitter, the fruits are citrusy, and mango-y (whatever the adjective is for mango flavour).

GJF (1002) - Cedar Rapids, Iowa, USA - JUL 15, 2010
This is quite good. Central Waters has some solid beers, but this is a notch above. Full fresh hop aroma from a white fluffy head. Lots of hop flavor--nice grapefruit touch--and plenty of malt to back it up. Very well done.

wavers1 (859) - Notown, California, USA - JUL 14, 2010
courtesy of tytoanderso, thanks mang! pours a nice muddy dark amber with some darker copper hues. nice creamy head that fades quick but leaves nice lacing. the aroma is ver sweet, floral, malty, grapefruit, only a touch of bitterness. the taste is quite the opposite, hugely bitter with only traces of anything sweet until the aftertaste, in which the more fruity notes are more evident. huge bitter palate, definitely a destroyer!
