ericdevin (289) - Eugene, Oregon, USA - NOV 4, 2012
Bottle from Market of Choice, Eugene. A really weird idea but came off fairly well. Pours a cloudy golden tan, LOTS of head. Aroma has faint notes of yeast and spice. Yeast dominant flavor, very smooth and complex, barrels, no hops, now yeast. A lot going on here, but very smooth overall, warming is only a hint in the finish; the hops are very shy, the barrels less so. A really big beer, definitely worth exploring just for something different.

Turboninja (38) - Tampere, FINLAND - JUN 14, 2013
Very sweet, strong aroma with a hint of caramel. Taste...Ok, this has to be some kind of an experiment to mix IPA with Chardonnay: dry, fruity flavors with high carbonation (be extra careful filling your glass). Long and quite bitter aftertaste. Medium palate with just mentioned extra high carbonation. Perhaps a bit too edgy for my taste, but as a disco styled experiment, perfect.

Inbreak (248) - Loddefjord, NORWAY - JUN 9, 2013
0,33l bottle @ home: Frisk fruktig, lett sødmerik lukt med preg av lys malt, humle, barnåler, kvae, høy, lauv, tørka frukt, litt tre. Frisk konsentrert smak med preg av malt, humle, bark, barnåler, alkohol, karamell, beiskt gras, høy. God bitterhet som set godt. Grei.

One of the worst beers made. Tastes like death with a side order of sun marinated old dental fillings.

77ships (2239) - Antwerpen, BELGIUM - APR 30, 2013
Apparently brewed @ De Molen – interesting, one of the better De Molen beers I have had recently.
Very dark amber amber appearance with a big creamy beige head.
Nose is big on USA grapefruit, very sticky & bitter pine resin, light caramel touch at the back.
Taste is strong bitter herbs mixed with sticky strongly bitter pine resin, grapefruit jam and lots of caramel, toffee & herbal sweetness, bitter grass in the back, light syrup.
Thick, creamy body.
All the subtlety of the average Evil Twin beer and De Molen for that matter, slightly odd and atypical but highly enjoyable IIPA. Nice.
(15 cl. tasting glass draft @ Delirium Hoppy Loft)

Beerheart65 (692) - Pori, FINLAND - APR 25, 2013
Ridiculously big frothy head could be used for foam-party, slightly hazy, orange. Head dampens aromas bit, malty sweet with dark bread and caramel, bit fruit. Nice palate, round, bit crisp carbonation, malty sweet, tasty long malty finish, bit spice kick. Nice one, great feel and body, good flavors, nuanced and tasty.

andrewturba (480) - Alberta, CANADA - APR 18, 2013
Pours a cloudy amber with an orange tinge and huge soapy off white head leaving ng lace up the glass. Aroma is pale malts, citrus, floral, and spicy. Flavour is citrus, medium spicy bitterness, bready, and some alcohol warming. I’d like to know the hop schedule and techniques used on this one to make such a smooth double ipa. Also the high carbonation really works for this one.

Reimer96 (620) - Alberta, CANADA - APR 18, 2013
Pours a hazy amber color with a big bubbly head that lasts the duration of the beer. Aroma of citrus, spicy yeast, bready malts and light floral notes. Taste is citrus hops, sweet bready malts with a nice complex hop bitterness and alcohol warming that blends together exceptionally well due to the big carbonation. Excellent imperial ipa that is nice and dry on the finish.

Bottle. So Blue Moon Vintage vs Evil Twin Disco Beer-- who makes a better "chardonnay beer" marriage? Well, it isn’t even a fair fight. Aside from ridiculous overcarbonation problems (which all Evil Twin beers seem to have), this beer is really terrific. The sweet grapey wine character is unmistakable, and supported nicely by the right balance of malt and hops. A light plastic phenol was found late, but did not ruin the overall pleasure of this beer (that is, once it finally settled down enough to drink).
