Growler from Village Beer Merchant. Pours a light amber color with a small off-white head. Aroma is of delcious fruity hops, alcohol, and sweet biscuity malt. Tastes sweet with lots of pine/spicy/citrus/apricot hop flavors. Finishes with spicy hop bitterness and alcohol burn. Yum!!! Always a good brew, but seems lighter and the hops seem less bitter than a few years ago.

Draft at redlight redlight. Pours amber with streaks of gold. A grassy nose meets with a very well balanced beer in the flavor. Lots of malts as well as hops prevent a huge bitterness (not necessarily a compliment) despite the IBU’s. Still, very tasty and refreshing. Hints of liquor, just a tad syrupy. Very smooth. Gets you drunk before you realize what happened.

Bottle @Mondiale de le biere in Strsbourg Ottimo Aspetto oro aranciato e buona persistenza della schiuma, Non è molto intensa al naso ma il luppolo si eprime in maniera molto fine. Al palato risulta molto frutta e sbilanciata verso note di malto, molto morbida e poco amara Studiata per essere molto gradevole e beverina.Molto persistente e molto armonica...

Gorgeous golden color with pillowy white head. Wonderful balance; massive hop bite transitioning to a nice malt finish and a citrusy aftertaste.

Bottle 33. Impressive hops flavour, close to citrus. Malt is quite missing. Intresting beer but to hoppy for me.

Bottle at the Alibi Room - pours an attractive amber into chalice. Extremely hoppy, spices and malt make this one of the best IPAs out there. Remarkable beer.

400th rating. 33cl bottle. Clear, bubbly amber with a fine, mostly dissipating white head and a scattered oily lacing. Grapefruit, mango and orange peel aromas with floral and honey notes. A big hit of demerara sugar sweetness followed by rhubarb and honey. Grapefruit, lemon sherbet and spicey hops balance with a grassy, piney finish leaving a floral, grassy and toasty aftertaste. Medium carbonation, crisp, lasting and balance mouthfeel with a touch of alcohol in the throat. So, so drinkable. Bottled on 05/06/09.
