Jun 24, 2009 Nice amber/copper body with a lasting off white head and thick lacing. Hoppy aroma with a fair amount of citrus and pine, not as big as I was anticipating. Caramel and bread malt flavors backed by a crisp hop profile. Solid but came off more of a pale ale, I was expecting more hops in the nose and flavor considering it claims to be "monstrously hopped".

Jun 24, 2009 House of Brews: once again: aaarrrggghhh!!! I greatly dislike IPA’s!!! But I always try to be fair... Honestly not the best I’ve had. Pours a light red, darker than I expected. Aroma is the hoppiness that I did expect. Taste? HOPS, lot’s of bitter hops. Very little balance to this beer, again not my favorite.

Jun 21, 2009 12 oz. bottle from Jungle Jim’s. Pours a clear reddish amber color with a sizable fluffy dirty beige head that leaves thick patchy lace. The aroma is hoppy with the emphasis being citrus and floral along with a sweeter caramel malt. The flavor has a nice malt base that is a combination of caramel and bread. The hops are more grassy and moderately bitter with only light citrus coming through. Medium mouthfeel, sessionable brew. I think from the nose I was expecting a different beer than what I tasted. Not bad, just different.

Jun 21, 2009 On tap at Buckeye Beer Engine. Clear reddish amber pour with a big tan head. Citrus and floral hop aroma with a bit of malt. Hop flavor that is citrusy and spicy with some caramel malt before the bitter finish.

Jun 20, 2009 12oz from the foodery. Pours orangey with a big tan head. Nose is sweet and hoppy with lots of malt. Taste is quite well hopped and decently balanced with the malt character.

Jun 20, 2009 This beer is no soo much an IPA but a red ale. Hoppy and a good color, it is a nice beer. Not too bitter but just enough to keep it consistent with the theme.
