Commercial Description:
This is a BIG beer. Mind Blowing ammounts of hops give this beer tons of flavour and aroma. Not for the faint of heart. The big mean cousin to the original Phillips IPA.

Bottle at Madsberg 2008 Tasting. Pours hazy orange with a small, creamy, white head. Aroma is sweet, lightly hoppy with lots of fruity character, mostly resempling apricot. Fine mouthfeel, rather dry. Flavour is powerfully hoppy, very fruity with pineapple, apricot and grapefruit. The mouthfeel is lacking a bit as the bitterness really kicks in, but it is still quite refreshing.

22 fl oz bottle. Pours hazy orange with a small and dense white head. Solid hoppy and mild pinewood note. Dry yeasty and solid hoppy aroma. Sweet malty and solid hoppy flavoured. Lasting sweet and solid hoppy and bitter finish. Smooth and easy and quite fruity hoppy. Nice one.

This definitely has a lot of hops, but it is also well defined and complex. Beautiful balance between the hops and caramel flavours. Well done.

Crisp, bitter hops. Malt with a bread, biscuit flavor. Gold color but low carbonation and now head. Drinkable, but disappointing. And there was no sign of this being a double IPA, rather than an American pale or regualr ipa.

Amber with a thin off white head. Aroma is a very strong piney hoppiness with an oil quality with a faint smoke and petro quality. Taste is a caramel hoppiness, very light smoke mixed with aged hops. Interesting IIPA.

Amber color; creamy head. It has the caramel-malt aroma of a Barley Wine or American Strong Ale. Indeed the flavor plays a lot on the bold caramel, the body is medium-strong, strong bitterness; the hop feeling is dry, resiny. The final is less sweet than an American one, but the hop is equally good. Very good.
