22oz bottle from the The Epeeist, thanks Chris. Dark brownish pour with a slight orange tint to it. Smelled spicy, like cinnamon with a little hoppiness to it. Very nice hop bitterness in the flavor though very nice smoothness as well.

Sampled on 10/23/2008. This imperial IPA pours a slightly hazy orange gold color from a 22oz bottle. Small sized white foamy head nice retention and decent lacing. The aroma is grapefruit, pineapple, caramel and sweet. A medium to full bodied Imperial IPA. The malts are caramel, fruity and sweet. The hops are grapefruity, floral and a touch piney. A medium bitterness Imperial IPA. Lively carbonation. Lots of orange and orange peel flavors towards the back end of the taste. Hides the 10% alcohol well. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is crisp and dry. Aftertaste is somewhat bitter.

8-26-08 bottle thanks to miketd <br /> Clear amber orange with a decent white head and some good sticky lacing. Smell is very sweet. Flavor is honey and fruit preserves..... syrupy fruit juice. Mouthfeel is okay - not great. Just a sweet and kinda strange flavor.

Dark yellow with foamy head. This is a big hoppy melange with malt. The bitterness is not acidic but it is a bitter mouthfeel. Yes its a very decent DIPA. 43rd or 44th state.Above average mouthfeel. Thanks SuzyGreenberg.
