AleDude (22), USA Apr 29, 2008 Light amber in color with modest head. Flavor is slightly sweet with a very smooth finish. A strong beer that doesn’t taste strong.
jmikolich (334), Athens, Ohio, USA Jul 20, 2008 22oz, bottle, from most recent batch, kept cold during entire storage time, still hops have faded a bit, but its still quite good, balanced, not as extreme as i may have hoped but spot on from Great Lakes. glad to have tried this IIPA from one of the more conservative breweries. and a hometown favorite gunnfryd (2662), Kristiansand, Norway Jul 11, 2008 Bottle. Golden colour with an off-white head. Aroma is hop, citrus, malt. flavour is hop, citrus, sweet, malt. Nice beer. tarjei (1051), Bryne, Norway Jun 30, 2008 66 cl bottle - tasting with yngwie, gunnfryd and Beer_2000. Hazy amber color, big off-white head. Aroma is nice hops and fruit. Flavor is the same. Nice bitterness. Odeed (1438), Bakersfield, California, USA Jun 28, 2008 (BIG UPS TO HOPPYMEAL FOR THIS BONUS BREW)awesome ice tea like looking body with a white head that leaves thick webbing on the glass.this gets a perfect for appearance.nice pine/earthy hop aroma with some caramel malts peaking through.flavor is full of ivy and earthy hops.interesting for sure. yngwie (3342), Kristiansand, Norway Jun 26, 2008 Bottle, 22oz. It pours a slightly unclear golden body with an off-white head diminishing rather quickly. Hop-driven aroma leaving room for the sugary malts. Pine and resin. Sure nice, but a bit gentle maybe. Very sugary flavor, sure on the malty side, with pine and resin. Full body. Long finish with sugary malts, resin and pine. Delicious, but not in the west coast way. (080626)
