COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
At the height of the heat in the heart of the summer, we felt that the only cure was a raging mouthful of fresh hops and malt. Caution: May remove enamel from teeth. This is Lagunitas IPA pumped up by about 30%!

Bottle. Aroma is strong with hops and a bit of malt. Notes of pepper, pine, grass, and grapefruit stand out. Very freshing for the hop level. Flavor brings out some carmel notes. Good ipa

a very nice imp ipa. Pours orange/amber colour with moderate white head which dissipates quickly. Grapefruit on the nose and in the taste. Has an almost caramel component to it. A nicely balanced beer where the hop bitterness actually gives rise to an almost sweet brew. I would buy this again for sure.

Guyute_Pig (62) - Black Mountain, North Carolina, USA - JUN 14, 2010
Pours amber-orange with a large pearl head. Decent lacing. I get a lot of grapefuit hops in this. Very citrusy flavor, with a pine finish. Nice DIPA with a smooth finish. Very drinkable and a re-buy.

ballz50401 (12) - Iowa, USA - JUN 7, 2010
Poured from 12oz. bottle (no bottle date) into Sam Adams perfect pint. Golden, orange/reddish color with good carbonation and good head retention. Very nice citrus hop aroma. Very good citrusy hop flavor with a hint of carmel in the backround. Medium bodied with a little creaminess to it. Not a bad IPA w/ a high ABV.

flemmingwillum (687) - Copenhagen S, DENMARK - JUN 5, 2010
Rating #352, bottle from Lagersalget @ Grønjordskollegiet

Cloudy golden-brown beer, really no head. Aroma of floral hops, citrus and a bit berries. Taste is marked by berries, tobacco-like hops, citrus and malts. Rather dry mouthfeel. Finish is bitter hopped and citrusy. Long bitter aftertaste, a bit alcohol. Medium body and carbonation.

12oz bottle in a snifter. Pours ruby amber with a thick, off-white head. Aroma very citrusy, with some slight earthy/grass notes. Starts off with a nice citrus flavor, and finishes with a more full citrus flavor. Lots of hops in this beer, if you can’t tell. Very good.

Sample. Amber/orange with off-white head. Flavour is malt, fruit and lots of hops.
