Tap at Mad Mex 9/28/07 -- Intoxicating aroma; grabs your tongue and doesn’t let go.

Quite simply one of the best IPAs I’ve ever had. Pours a dark cloudy amber with an amber/beige head. The aroma is dominated by the hops providing a scent of pure bitter earthiness. Also, there is a very slight citrus aroma that is very hard to detect because of all of the hops. This beer is extremely bitter but is balanced out nicely with a nice amount of sweet citrus flavor. This is a hop head wet dream 165 IBUs. What?!

Bottle. Pours a sediment filled copper color with an off-white head. When cold, the nose is off apricots and citrus, but warms up to give off hints of smell caramel. Extremely well balanced without any notice of a bitter aftertaste. Tastes of caramelized apricots. Medium bodied.

Very surprised by the quality here. Pour was very dark red and looked beautiful. Aroma was unique for an IPA with clover, grass, and grapefruit; I was very impressed. Flavor doesn’t disappoint with a strong hit of hops, citrus and grass. Very bitter/tart aftertaste... Excellent beer.

dripping with juicy fruity hop flavor. I’m guessing thiere are some summit hops in here (although I really have no clue) due to all the gummy bear flavor. Strawberry, passionfruit, orange, grapefruit. Malt is big and supportive, but definitely takes a backseat to the hops. Sticky and juicy. Bitterness is there in the back for sure, but could be larger. As it is it leaves the juicy sweetness room to really develop and explode. While I love bitterness, I really can’t complain. chewy mouthfeel. Great beer.
