Bomber courtesy of douglas88. Pours copper with a nicely sustained white, rocky head. Smells of juicy citrus, perfume, spicy, light nutty hints, piney notes. peppery. Tastes bitter and resiny initially before giving way to a nice, spicy finish.

22oz bottle split with Anndiesel, procured on her East Coast jaunt. Unfiltered thick orange-tan, steady off-white head. Resiny, grassy, herbal hop aroma, Hop forward, but a big malt body underlying. Fuggles/EKG..maybe some Cascade if I had to guess, they come off pretty big and resinous. A pretty solid IPA, somewhere between regular and Imperial. Quality offering, well done.
4.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 luv2brew (196) - Chesterfield, Virginia, USA - MAY 25, 2012
Large white head, massive nose with an evident bitterness. Hazy dark yellow in color. I don’t know if this is as much citrus as it is juniper like, but definitely oppy. Really nice bitterness as well as an equal balanced malt

4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 18/20 Onslow (713) - Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA - MAY 17, 2012
Pour from a 22oz bomber. Beautiful translucent cloudy dark yellow brew with white head. Aroma of citrus, erbal, juniper, with hints of fresh fruit. Taste is great - moderately sweet malt at the start and nice hops running through the finish. Citrus, floral, herabal, wonderful complexity. A fine DIPA.

Tap. Pours light amber mostly clear with a small head that has good staying power with some lacing. Aroma is of citrus/grapefruit with some floral scents. Taste is slightly sweet, piney and floral. Extremely bitter from start to finish, including a very bitter aftertaste. Overall a little watery in the mouth.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20 crackedmachine (303) - Seattle, Washington, USA - MAY 14, 2012
Bottle, Release #37, 8.3% ABV. Hazy orange with a bright, frothy white head. Solid hop aroma (citrus, tangerine, pine) with a bit of caramel, and as it warms, grain. Flavor actually has a bit more upfront malt, but then comes a quick and bracing bitterness, which lingers in the finish. The bitterness loses its potency over the course of the first glass. Caramel, tangerine, and pine come to dominate. Batch 37 is really enjoyable, and I would love to be able to try some of the others with changes to the hop bill.

Pours a dark orange with medium white head, minimal lacing. Aroma of toasted malt, floral and herbal hops, citrus, resin, and slight cereal. Flavor matches well and is really enjoyable. Great beer.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 Marheb (675) - Montréal, Quebec, CANADA - MAY 7, 2012
(Pompe nitro au Cloverleaf): Sapiné, fruits exotiques, agrumes avec une structure malté très solide. L’amertume n’est pas un facteur pour une IIPA mais la présence en bouche et les saveurs compensent parfaitement. Très juteux.
