happy4hops (369), Bel Air, Maryland, USA Aug 23, 2007 What more is there to say. Pretty much the best of the best. Well priced as well. masonjer (562), Holt, Michigan, USA Aug 20, 2007 Poured a golden color into a pint. My buddy brought this back from California so I was happy to share with him. Smell is everything you expect in an DIPA, nice pine and floral hops, enticing citrus and tropical fruit. flavor didn’t dissapoint, tropical fruits came through, balanced with a sharp hops, citrus, all balanced by a distant malt backbone. ogglethorp (883), Ohio, USA Aug 18, 2007 Bottle. Pours a hazy copper color with a decent sized off white head. Aroma is huge floral hops, grapefruit, mango, peach. Flavor is huge floral hops mango, peach, pine, cedar, caramel malt. Palate is medium bodied, medium carbonation, finishes with a huge blast of prickly hop bitterness. Fantastic. Zinister (1199), Houston, Texas, USA Aug 18, 2007 Brought a bottle to Fralo’s in Leon Springs. Cloudy orange color with creamy head. Nose of grapefruit, lemons, pine and malts. Taste of creamy caramel malts mixed with the typical glorious flavors of a well built IPA. Not overly bitter on the finish. Very nice. asedzie (453), San Francisco, California, USA Aug 16, 2007 Bottle. Pours hazy golden amber with creamy off-white head. Awesome retention. Aroma is pine needles, resiny, juniper berries, as well as definite fruitiness, some passion fruit, a toffee-like malt buried beneath , but more and more noticeable as it warms. Flavor is surprisingly balanced and light. Toasted toffee malt taste upfront, lots of floral and sharply bitter fruitiness and citrus – lemon, apricot, lime – throughout. Finish is slightly soapy citrus. Surprisingly, alcohol is not at all noticable. Strong bitterness lingers for a long while. jgentgesdo (564), Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA Aug 16, 2007 Pours hazy gold with a medium white head. Nose is intense grassy and floral hops. Flavor of strong grassy and floral hops with a finishing grapefruit hops note. Intensely bitter. Very limited malt background that only shows up as it warms, and then only towards the end. Endless bitter finish. Oh so good. crizay (1050), Brook Park (was Tampa,FL), Ohio, USA Aug 16, 2007 Light copper pour, small white head. Aroma of citrus hops bigtime. Flvor is citrus hops, orange mostly and grapefruit. Caramel backbone, dryhopped like crazy with lots of citrus hops flavor and aroma. LeviathanIPA (30), chula vista, California, USA Aug 15, 2007 very strong hop aroma, a hazy amber color with a thick tanish yellow head. has an oily thick feel on the palate. smooth with a bitter sweet after taste
