Dec 23, 2006 Thanks to Ramenen. Bottle: Extremely complex, starts with lots of citrus flavours and slowly moves into hops and pepper; finishes spicey and hot!

Dec 23, 2006 (Bottle 35,5 cl) Vintage 2006 at 9.0% ABV. Clear, amber golden with a small, off-white head. Very fresh aroma of pine needles. Full, sweetish body with lots of caramel and wonderful flavours of pines and citrus - almost soapy perfumy, but never unpleasant and sticky as it manages to retain quite some freshness. The bitterness is not overwhelming and only seems to awake rather late on the palate. Yummy. 191206

Dec 21, 2006 Bottle. Clear light amber colour with a little head. Lovely aroma of hops specially citrus and melon-like combined with caramel and malt. Sweet flavour of malt combined with a nice and fine hope profil. But I missing some bitterness for a IIPA. Ends up with a warm feeling from the alcohol.

Dec 20, 2006 Bottle. Thanks to friends. This IPA is very smooth with the hoppy aroma and tatse. Would come pair it to a Simcoe.

Dec 20, 2006 Pours an amber color with thin white head that fades quickly. Aroma is pine and citrus (grapefruit) with some malt. Taste is much the same but I feel the malt and hops are somewhat muted for a IIPA. Mouthfeel is a bit thick and oily. This is a very resinous IIPA. Overall I think Tyranena has the better IIPA. Unlike the bourbon county stout, this one is overpriced.

Dec 19, 2006 Copper colored with thin white head. Aroma is lusciously piney with a bit of citrus. Taste is thick and heavy with hops, but not too bitter, and finishes cleanly. Alcohol is well hidden, and carbonation is lowish, but just about right for this product. $5.50/12oz

Dec 18, 2006 Bottle. Pours a cloudy orange, with a beautiful tan head. Nose is heavy on the grapefruits, a little pine, and some oranges. Taste very much of the smell, and deliicious!! This is very well balanced, and definetly one of the best IIPA’s ive had.

Dec 18, 2006 Deep hazy orange pour with off white head. Very hoppy aroma. Piney and hay-like with plasticy notes. This stuff is hop juice! Has a big piney flavor. There’s a lot of earthyness to it. Soily, slight woodchip notes. Not enough malt in my opinion. Leafy grainy hop flavors all over. It’s finish is almost roasty and has an oakey bitterness. Nice, but something maybe missing inorder to make is very good.
