Pours amber with low frizzy head which quickly disappears Very hoppy aromas of grapefruits, citrus. A lot of caramel malts makes it fudgy and honey like in aroma as well. Nice! Taste just like an imperial ipa should! Nice sweeeet start of the caramel malts, hoppy freshness which then moves over to a medium bitter ending. Reaaallly good!

Bottle at home. Amber with an off-white head, nice lacings. Aroma heavy hoppy (citrusy), medium malty (caramel). Flavor medium sweet, medium+ hoppy, yet smooth with a almost full body. Quite strong, but discrete. Nice balance.

Pours a lovely clear amber with a finger of white head. Mild floral and citrus aromas. Nice hop flavor, actually not as much as I expected for 102 IBUs. Light to medium body and slightly oily. Medium to light carbonation. Moderately bitter finish. Doesn’t really hit like a double. Overall a very good ipa, but not as great as I expected based on the ratings here.

I forgot how excellent this beer is, tastes more like a ipa than a dipa but still awesome nonetheless. Can’t taste the abv, very hoppy, all hops, goes down smooth, nice fruity taste to it as well, very clean and clear. One of the great ones, esp. for the price.

Pours a nice dark golden amber from the bomber with nice dissipating white head and good lacing. Aroma is piney west coast hops. Taste is all hops, piney bite with a nice bitter finish. Well balanced and clean finish; good DIPA.

Nice hop aroma & hop flavor. Descent mouthfeel & color. Good price (around Seattle, at least). All in all, a great beer if you’re a hophead.

650 ml bottle bought @ Kihoskh. Pours tiny hazy deep reddish golden with a frothy white head that slowly dissipates while leaving some lacing on the glass. Smell is sweet and malty with caramel, oily pine, freshly cut grass, overripe mango, overripe pineapple, wet leaves, lemon zest, biscuits, resinous wood and alcohol. Taste is sweet, bitter and malty with sweet dark bread, orange peal, oily pine, lemon balm, resinous wood, burnt caramel, brown sugar, lemon peal and hints of dill and sheet metal. Mouthfeel is round, sticky sweet, oily bitter and medium to full bodied. Finish is sweet and bitter with pine, caramel, orange peal, grass and hits of sheet metal.

Bottle- Pours a clear dark golden color with a good head that fades to decent lacing. Aroma of pine, lots of pine, with a bit of citrus and malt sweetness in the background. Taste follows the aroma piney/citrus bite up front with just a bit of malt sweetness. The bitterness leads to a dry finish. Medium body, smooth and well balanced. No hint of the 8% ABV. Great beer for the style. This is what an IPA should be like.

Appearance was clear orangish honey with a creamy off white diminishing 2 finger head, lacing throughout. Aromas are friuts of orange, grape friut, peach with sweet caramelly malts, then the piney spicy hops come to play. Taste was sweet caramel honey malts upfront then the citrusy piney resinous hops hits the mouth. Palate was smooth creamy carbonation then a medium body long friuty hoppy finish. Great DIPA...

Bomber. Pours a clear golden, big head that dissipated. Aroma is hoppy. Taste is a nice citrus, grapefruit, some banana. Grassy notes as well, This is very good!
