4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 kidmartinek (1757) - austin, Texas, USA - MAY 4, 2008
A yellow tinted caramel beer. Pours with a 2.4 inch head, (yes, 2.4 inch) that just won’t quit. Super bitter, hop aroma. Taste is like pure hop bliss, It’s perfect. It’s a lot, but not too much, and definitely enough. Texture is medium, and full. After taste is bitter, which if you’re drinking this, you know how good it is then.

4.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 chickenflea (227) - Oviedo, Florida, USA - FEB 6, 2010
12-0z bottle. Poured a beautiful golden amber with a touch of cloudiness. Thick off-white head. Not billowing but persistent. Left plenty of lacing on the glass. Bold aroma carried pine and citrus. Rich malty flavor with notes of honey. Hops came on strong but the lingering maltiness balanced it well. LONG finish. The flavor lasted and lasted. Rich and sticky on the palate, too. This is an excellent and substantial brew that satisfies those that crave hoppy goodness yet want something creamy and substantial. Drinkable as far as a double goes! An excellent brew.
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20 lefossoyeur (245) - Montreal, Quebec, CANADA - SEP 9, 2009
Slightly hazy golden with a thick long lasting white creamy head. Light nose of hops on the fruity side (apricot, nectarine), delicate but appealing. Full bodied with a terrific mid-palate saturated by a massive dose of hops that leads to an evrlasting finale of sundried apricots. Un délice...
Tasted side by side with 3 floyds Alpha King, it outclassed it by miles in every aspect.

Great IPA. Complex malty start moving into a resiny/grassy hop finish/. High gravity with excellent mouthfeel. All the complexity I expect from such a brewery.

Pours a beautiful golden hue with a almost non existant head. Aroma is sweet hits the nose with a berry like smell. Taste is out of this world with a smooth blend of citrus flavor and hoppy a very very small hint of alchohol. This is a great beer, goes on my highly recommended list for IPA lovers. Hard to beat.

Burnt orange / coppery color. Very clear with some light carbonation. Nice aroma. Mostly all hops here. Right up front I got some citrusy Grapefruit and fresh Pear & Apricot Tart hoppiness.Malts recede to the hop character. Medium to fuller body. Very enjoyable.
