Beautiful amber color, hazy; it seems paler than the others, with a medium sized creamy head. The aroma is generic. Dry mouthfeel; dry caramel flavor (drier than most of the others, and driest in this lot); the body seems leaner too; very strong bitterness, with a lot of hop oils and some resins.
A good thirst quencher, but not as interesting as the ones with fruity hops.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Deep golden pour with a tight white head. The nose is a little bit orangey but also with a sort of odd candy sweetness that is fairly unique. Very little character to this one - just a cleanly bittered IPA with a little bit of sticky resin and very faint apricot on the finish. Meh - I guess now I know why it’s a bittering hop.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottled 330ml (Beer Planet)
Deep amber-copper color, good creamy off-white head. Flowery, a bit piney aroma with yeasty-earthy notes. Medium-bodied. Front is a bit caramel sweetish and then typical Warrior bitterness rides in. Strong citrusy-piney bitterness with some fruity-caramel maltyness in the background. Long lingering bitterness in the aftertaste. Good IPA although with Warrior as a single hop, quite simple (really?).

Bottle poured a clear amber with a lasting amber head. Aroma of biscuit, earthiness and grapefruit. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of biscuit, earthiness and light grapefruit with a smooth moderatly bitter finish.

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
330 ml @ Yngwies, all 19 varieties of single hop beers tasted at the same day in September 2011. Slightly unclear, deep golden body with a dense off-white head. A bit mild, fruity aroma with caramel. Flavor is bitter, but does not really feels like 115IBU compared with some of the others above 100 IBU. A quite straight forward IPA with not so much more depth besides general citric fruit and caramel malt. Quite bitter aftertaste.
