Aug 2, 2008 Poured from a bottle a clear amber color with a nice fluffy white head. The pine and floral smell really came through in the aroma, just setting the table for what was to come. The beer had an intense hop flavor, but it didn’t overwhelm the senses and go too far over the top.

Aug 1, 2008 6 pack from Belmont Party Supply. This is a truly special IPA, and I judge IPA’s harshly. This beer is upfront hops at its finest. A rare combination of citrus and piney hops, this beer’s flavor also contains some malty sweetness as well. Any homebrewer knows that Columbus, Simcoe, Centennial and Cascade hops is an All Star Team. At $14.99 this IPA is quite expensive, but it has the qualities of many Imperials. What an incredible finish, sour, bitter and pungent.

Aug 1, 2008 OBF ’07 And this one time I drank a hop bud. The IBU is over 100, holy hell this is good. A must for any true IPA fan.

Jul 28, 2008 Draught. Strong hop aroma, grapefruit and pine. Pours a clear amber with a thin head. Flavor is poorly balanced, mostly a strong hop bitterness with very little depth. This is what happens when you throw all your hops in at the beginning of your boil. This isn’t even a hop-bomb, it’s an IBU bomb, and that just makes for a harsh undrinkable overrated mess of a beer.

Jul 28, 2008 Pours an amber color with an off-white head. Aroma is mostly of citrus and pine hops with some caramel malts. Flavor is pretty bitter from the hops with a hint of the caramel malts. Bitter, lingering flavor on the finish. Pretty good.

Jul 28, 2008 12 oz. bottle - pours clear and dark orange with thin white head; soapy, sweet hops; crisp and killer bitters; smells as good as most double IPA’s but with a very light and thin body; a little sweetness is there, but this basically a straight bitter bomb

Oily palate.
Flowery, perfume-ish hops in the flavour with a distinct bitterness.
