Nov 17, 2008 poured a copper/amber colour with a creamy off white head that laced well.
Aroma was awesome citrus-pine. Plenty of caramel maltiness backing that up. A slightly sticky sweet piney alc. finish.

Oct 30, 2008 Clear red body with a disappating white head. Floral hops balanced with caramel malts. Easier drinking compared to many in the IPA family. Not as hoppy given this is a west coast brewer. I think this might fit better into the American Strong Ale category. A solid brew, just isn’t so memorable.

Oct 28, 2008 Beautiful clear golden pour, thick white head. Aroma is similar to other west coast IPA’s, citrus and floral hops. Flavor is lightly hoppy and bitter of same citrus and floral notes. Great all around brew.

Oct 28, 2008 In Bostom after game four of the ALCS (Tampa Bay).
Lagunitas Maximus Imperial IPA is a deep amber color with creamy khaki head. The aroma and flavor are both sweet and bitter with malty bases. This is a fantastic beer with a serious bite.

Oct 26, 2008 [Bottle] Pours clear deep gold with a small off white head. Huge pine and grapefruit nose with a touch of malt. Flavor is slightly bitter, piney and citric, with a medium mouthfeel.

Oct 23, 2008 Big hop but a slightly sweat aroma. Golden amber color. Big hops but well balanced flavor, with an alomost creamy texture.

Oct 21, 2008 Bottle thanks to mar. Nice amber pour, thick sustained head, really nice lacing. Aroma of pine, hops, honey and malt. Nice and hoppy flavor but not overwhelming. Reminds me a bit of two hearted. Nice sweet undercurrent... almost like a hint of coca cola. Smooth, not too bitter.. really nice IIPA, one of my favorites.

Oct 18, 2008 Pours out orangey with a nice citrus smell that hits your sinuses like a freight train. The hops hit you from the first sip and don’t stop til the very last drop. Another winner from Lagunitas.
