Travlr (698), Washington, Washington DC, USA Dec 15, 2008 Clear orange with medium white head. Aroma of flowers and banana. Big hops of course, but also some tones of citrus. Very dry finish. Good one. fidel (884), Livermore, California, USA Dec 13, 2008 Orange amber, smooth, creamy, mallty, hoppy, caramel, piney, little citrus, dry finish. vonsolms (25), Måløv, Denmark Dec 6, 2008 On tap at the Dogfish Head pub in Falls Church, Virginia. A truly exceptional IPA. Just when I thought I understood what an IIPA was all about - Titan. This just blew me away. Great balance - the threat of phenol a la single malt scotch, which remains just that, strength and bitterness in perfect harmony. They also serve a black-and-tan with this and Chicory Stout, which is superb. Pity we cannot rate blends on this site. hallinghansen (263), Odense SV, Denmark Dec 6, 2008 Updated: Feb 3, 2009Bottle. Powerfull tons of hops. Nice orange color with a small white head. One of the best imperial ipa. More of that please. BustedFlat (552), Edina, Minnesota, USA Dec 5, 2008 Sampled at the Great Decatur Beer Tasting Festival in Georgia on 10/18/08. Golden in color. Pine hop aroma. Taste was nice balance between pine hops, grapefruit and malt. I am not a hophead, but this one was good.
drjay44 (757), Salida, Colorado, USA Dec 5, 2008 Updated: May 9, 200912 oz. bottle. Pours a pleasantly tannish thick head with good duration and very nice lacing over a clear coppery body....nose is mild floral hops, with minimal pine and resin....tastes initially of malts then lingering grapefruit type bitterness....mouth feel is quite good with that indefinable chewniess of great brews....balance is superb. This is east coast hopping in that they are rather quiet. 12/04/2008 wyzzywyz22 (754), Wirral, Merseyside, England Dec 5, 2008 Bottle courtesy of MP via NYC. Thanks bud This was the best of MPs US selecta. Good lookin amber colour with a niiiice white head. Lovely sticky piney hop aroma. Big hoppy flavour with pineapple raisin and citrus notes. Great balance and poise. Superb fragrant dry bitter finish.
Top effort. Want more. poolboy (66), Lafayette, Indiana, USA Nov 30, 2008 Orange color. Typical imperial IPA taste except I noted a hint of banana. A very good imperial IPA, but not the best.
