3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
This beer is all about the hops...aroma, taste, and palate all are dominated by the Humulus Lupulus. The aroma is primarily a hoppy-citrus. The taste is a heavy hoppy-bitter. This is a full body beer with average carbonation and almost a creamy-slick texture. It offers a long, bitter finish. As for the appearance, the beer has a hazy, orange-amber color, with a creamy white (slightly off white) head that lasts from the pour till the last drop leaves the glass.
4.7 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
One of my favorite beers ever.
The floral hugeness, sharp evergreen edge, and thick citrus syrup are all key elements but this is a very unique beer.
Palate is especially pleasant-- unique, sharp, champagney carbonation provides a mouth feel as big as the absolutely huge flavors.
This is a beer that generates immediate comments when served.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle. Slightly hazy orange color with a vanishing whit head. Mild carbonation. No lacing. This is more like a dipa. I expect a crisp bitterness and it's not. Nothing you want more than one of at a time. Powerful with a bit of a linger.

This beer pours a hazy deep amber-gold color with a medium off-white head that diminishes steadily. Partial rings of lacing on the glass. The aroma consists of hops, citrus and malt. Medium body with flavors of citrusy hops, pine and sweet malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a fruity hops aftertaste. Above average IPA overall.

3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
A decent IPA. Huge citrus and floral aroma which is very nice. Taste is all hops and bitterness with no malt to back it up. I prefer my IPA’s to have a little malt backbone. Still has a good fresh hop taste and has a nice bitter finish. Not my favorite but I still drink it occasionally.

3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle shared @ The Rover. Pours clear pale golden with a big frothy white head that slowly dissipates while leaving lots of trace and lacing on the glass. Smell is sweet and hoppy with watermelon, lemon juice, moss, orange peal, grapefruit juice, grass and hints of green peas. Taste is tiny sweet and bitter with pine, dried grass, green uncooked vegetables, wet soil and orange peal. Mouthfeel is oily bitter, intense, slightly unbalanced and medium bodied. Finish is bitter and very tiny sweet with pine, orange peal and grass. Felt like the bottle was a bit old...
