Nov 20, 2008 Pours orange with a foamy head. Smells piney and citrusy with plenty of hops. Flavor was thick and hoppy. Certainly not a bad beer, especially for the price, I just prefer their west coast IPA more.

Nov 2, 2008 Lots of piney, citrus hops. Doesn’t meld together as well as some other IIPAs I’ve tried. Really heavy in all areas and certainly enjoyable, altough a bit too citrusy at times. This is the only negative for a big, huge beer. Good price too for the style

Oct 28, 2008 Pours a mostly clear orange with an amber hue and a lovely thick frothy off-white head. Aroma has a little of everything, piney, resin, citrus, earthy, bitter, light honey and caramel. First taste is very earthy and bitter quickly followed by some sugar. Light peachy notes, diluted caramel, touch of honey, but mostly piney and very bitter. Medium/full body, quite sugary, smooth fluffy big-bubbled carbonation, the hops oils sting and wake up the mouth. I usually don’t like super sugary and super bitter IPA’s without a lot of citrus, however I enjoy this quite a bit.

Oct 25, 2008 Bottle. Poured orange in color with nice white head. Aroma was hops, citrus, and a little caramel. Taste is malt, caramel, and floral hops. Nice texture and clean finish. A Solid brew.

Oct 25, 2008 22 oz. bottle. Pours a clear orange amber color with a medium sized off white head. The aroma is a big citrus sensation with orange and grapefruit dominating. The nose is rounded out by sweet caramel malt and some pine. The flavor has a nice caraeml malt base from which the hops do their best to dominate. Again, the hops are mainly citrus (orange and grapefruit) and pine. The bitterness builds with each drink. Medium bodied with a dry finish. The alcohol is not a factor in the flavor which at 9% is nice. I find myself drawn to the West Coast IPA/IIPA.

Oct 24, 2008 bomber - Pours copper with a big, fluffy white head. The aroma is a wonderful blend of citrus and floral accented hops. The flavor is of course really big on the hops with the citrus notes coming through very nicely. It has enough malt to give it a good medium body and a bit of balance, but clearly at 101 IBUs, beyond what is said to be detectable by the human palate, this beer is all about the hops. There’s a long, bitter finish to this palate wrecking brew. My love affair with double IPAs continues.
