Apr 27, 2007 Thanks to thewolf for this one. Drank in a tulip. Thick brown hazy /murky poor with a nice foamy light brown head. Aromas of ginger, caramel, very hoppy, floral, pine... lots of spices... Creamy thick, long lasting bitterness, peppery with a nice dry finish. Full bodied, nicely carbonated. Flavors are preaty much the same... almost fuller. This beers character reminds me a little of an Orval. I love it!

Apr 17, 2007 Expecting more from this beer! Way too carbonated... hazy amber, massive head - typical US ’C’ hop aromas - good, but no cigar! but 3.5 isn’t bad!

Apr 10, 2007 skortila poured a very cloudy wannabe-orange beige color with a big frothy off-white head. Cloudy strokes of yeast swirled down to the bottom of the glass, a Dutch sky was nothing compared to this view. Aroma of cascade hop, slightly fruity and yeasty (what a surprise). Very soft, fruity and bit yeasty taste, but not very bitter as most other IPAs I’ve had. Soft bitter palate. Nice balance. I like this one very much!

Apr 10, 2007 Aroma is floral, hoppy and fruity. Cloudy, brown-orange coloured with an off-white, medium head. Taste is just moderate bitter, yeasty, sweet and fruity (grapefruits). Very smooth palate for the style. Enjoyable.

Apr 1, 2007 A sensational looking beer, cloudy amber with a big pillowy head that left a delicate lacing. Super strength floral hop aroma with pine and a bit of citrus. Alcohol is a bit obvious in the aroma, along with a caramelly malt base. A nice even bitterness in the flavour which is quite lasting. Actually, it lingers for a bloody long time at the back of the tongue. While in the mouth it’s quite nice, but the bitterness really sticks out like dogs balls after swallowing. A decent IPA, but a touch over the top (thanks to highlandlad for sharing)
