nuplastikk (2613) - Madison, Wisconsin, USA - MAY 27, 2012
12oz bottle. Filtered thin yellow-orange color, thin frothy white head. Minty lemon alcohol laced aroma. Big sugary grapefruit flavor, certainly has some alcohol ruggedness, but the filtration keeps it clean on the palate. Really easy drinking for the ABV, comes off more sharp and peppery, almost Saaz-like at times. Not bad, pretty tasty, but not really above par.

Bottle at home. Poured a translucent, golden orange, with little-to-no head. Smell is pine, grass, resin, and some grapefruit. Also, getting a slight burn in my nostrils from the alcohol as it begins to warm. I am picking up tastes of grapefruit, pine, citrus, light grass and caramel, with a big bitter finish. The alcohol is hidden a lot more in the taste than in the smell. Mouthfeel is sticky, with medium carbonation. Overall, a delicious DIPA and worth a try.

Pours a straw golden color with a two finger head with rediculous lacing. Aroma...a west cost dipa from Pennsylvania? This is great stuff,Aroma of hops, hops and more hops. really tasty lots of hops malts that are there but not balanced in a good way. This is the sleeper dipa that needs more recognition. Check it out!

Pour is a deep cloudy orange color with a small off white head. Nose is of hops, hops, and hops. Taste is very much the same. Nothing mind blowingly hoppy, but rather full tasting and smooth.

Bottle to pint glass. Picked up a 4 pack of this on a whim during a trip to Pennsylvania and I am now a fan. Pours a very clear copper with a finger size white head. Aroma is hops/citrus but not incredibly overpowering. Fantastically balanced taste - hops to start but it finishes with malt notes - almost sweet. Reminds me of hopslam somewhat. Mouthfeel is smooth as silk. I would drink a lot more of this if I had brought home more with me. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

boxofrane (410) - pottstown, Pennsylvania, USA - MAR 13, 2012
Underrated. Draft. Pours copper with small write head. Smells of citrus and has big astringency. The taste is a bitter hop bomb with zero alcohol in the taste and finish. Mouthfeel is full and some carbonation cuts the heat. pretty damn great.

Draft at Anthony’s in Harrisburg. Shiny amber with a slight ring of bubbles. Aromas of resin, bee pollen, caramel and citrus. Tastes of resin, wood, citrus and earthy toffee. Medium body is smooth and lightly carbonated, with just a hint of the 11.5%.

Pours golden amber with light haze. Smaller white head that fades to a nice lace. Great spicy resin hop nose. Palate is bubbly and spicy. Nice sweetness to balance the hop. Very tasty beer. I’ll definitely have another. -Fish!
