4.9 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20 MarkSachon (333) - Pennsylvania, USA - AUG 8, 2012From the 12 oz bottle at a beer tasting party hosted by my friend Mitch. It’s difficult to level any criticism at all for this nearly perfect addition ot the hop terminator family. There’s a nice honey coloration and wonderful fresh scents of hops on the pour. Incredible first mouth feel tastes linger on the palate. No bites, just a smooth creaminess all the way down. Enjoy it if you can find it. Thanks to Jim who brought this delicacy to the party for all to enjoy.

Good beer but not great in my opinion. Had several of the 2013 vintage. Very fresh. Less hippy than I expected

It’s a great beer but overrated. Mouthfeel was probably my favorite thing about this beer. There is also the fact that it is incredibly balanced. I would have never guessed 10%. The only thing that alluded to the ABV was the lacing on the glass.

From tap. Pours a deep golden color and small head. Aroma was grassy and pine hops with a sweet backing. Taste follows with a very nice full body mouth feel. Very good beer!

(Bottle) Held in reserve and tasted at the recommendation from the Owner/Chef of the Porch Restaurant. Well balanced, smooth and sophisticated. ABV hidden by the immense flavor. I wish there was more of this.

Intense nose, piny notes. Pale color with not much carbonation. Great lace on sides of glass. Excellent strong flavor; long lasting with even finish.
4.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20 malkyore (53) - - MAY 9, 2013
Found this Amazing beer at a bar well after it was released and therefore well after I thought I’d ever see it again. Perfectly balanced with a hearty portion of hops and a nice caramelly malt taste. This is one of bells best, rougher than two hearted but with all the same straightforward goodness that keeps me coming back.

Had on tap. It came with a nice thick head and is clear orange amber. It smells sweet and tastes sweet and bitter. I had it before ans thought it was extremely bitter but this it isn’t so much.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 lusikka (4047) - Tampere, FINLAND - MAY 9, 2013
355 ml bottle.
Pours a copper golden colour with a small white head. Aroma of caramel, honey, grass and some grapefruity notes. Flavour is very refreshing with floral hops, grapefruit, honey, resin, caramel, pineapple and hay. Full bodied, oily mouthfeel and a lingering, floral, bitter finish. Honey leaves a oily layer in your mouth. Rather unique and enjoyable.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 tiong (2244) - Espoo, FINLAND - MAY 9, 2013
355ml bottle @ Super IPA tasting from a trade, thanks cp45!
Bottled 01/15/13 - Pours clear golden orange with a sticky smooth white head. Aroma of exotic fruits, biscuity malts, grassy hops, hints of honey and solvent. Taste is sweetish, malty and hoppy with notes of exotic fruits, grapefruit, citrus and honey. Finish is sweet, malty and oily with notes of honey, long lasting hoppy notes and warming alcohol. Quite sweet, but in a bit different way than usual, due to the honey notes. I’m not sure whether I like this or not. Feels a bit better after a few sips.
