MiP (6019), Flensburg, Germany Jun 7, 2007 Bottle at KŲ07. Clear copper colour, very small head. The flavour is very malty with a good pepperiness. Fat and sweet and nice.
tarheels86 (38), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA Oct 8, 2008 I was a little disappointed in this. Pours a light golden color with a big fluffy, white head. Aroma is citrus, hops, and caramel. Body is actually not very bitter at all- very creamy, sweet, and smooth. The alcohol here really dominates over the hops. Very oily on the palate as well. I really prefer the 60 Min IPA to this. As for imperial IPAs, I would stick to Stone Ruination. This is too expensive and the extra gravity and alcohol really takes away from what I believe is a perfect beer in the 60 Min IPA. 120 Min....now that is just insane.
armando629 (432), Budapest, Hungary Oct 7, 2008 I’ve bought it in Amsterdam, Cracked Kettle. Nice amber-copper color with a lacing creamy head. Caramel, some roasted perfume and hop resin in the rich nose. Oily texture, smooth and balanced mouthfeel with a fantastic hop flavor, caramel malt and citrus tastes. The aftertaste is nice and hopfull and complex too. Delicious, fine, exciting! Please give me more beers like that! heynik1885 (27), tonawanda, New York, USA Oct 5, 2008 Awesome light golden copper color, with a big fluffly off white head that seems to never go away. lots of lacing on glass. Nice earthy smell, bit of carmel and alot of hops. Nice bitter taste of hops and citrus with a raisiney finish. andersand (20), Sweden Oct 5, 2008 Lovely looking amber coloured imperial ipa with a small sticky head that leaves nice lazing on my snifter. Neat, bright caramell aroma with well integrated hops. Great oily, full bodied with a malty, fresh hoppy taste. Crisp, hoppy and perfumey finish and a sweet, lingering malt aftertaste on a soft, bitter base. Incredibley balanced, dangerously drinkable. peter48er (74), Liverpool, Merseyside, England Oct 5, 2008 Bottle bought @ Knightly Spirits,Orlando in February. Drunk at home in UK. A beefy, full in the face IPA with the extreme hoppiness balanced by a strong maltiness and background sweetness. A lovely beer. Also had the 60min; would love to try the 120mins!
