Lothore (226), California, USA Apr 26, 2008 A- Pours a cloudy peach hue with almost no head to speak of.
S- Smell is dominated by citrus hops, very aromatic and a joy to smell.
T- Taste is a barrage of hops, a mixture of pine and citrus with a bitter back end that would leave even the most extreme hop head stunned.
M- Fairly viscous with a good amount of carbonation.
D- Fairly drinkable, the high abv and bitterness detract a bit but its so damn tasty it’s hard not to drink.
sridleyGTR (3), , Colorado, USA does not count Oct 11, 2008 22 oz bottle server in shaker. Pours a deep, slightly cloudy honey color, with lively carbonation consisting of small bubbles. Minimal head. Spicy pine resin aroma, with some sweetness. Medium-bodied mouthfeel is oily, but sports a lively carbonation that bursts on your tongue. Flavor is sweet up front, fading to a long, bitter finish with tart sweetness and spice along the way. This is an excellent double IPA, with a major sweetness to offset the hop attack. afireinside96 (498), Mountville, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 8, 2008 22oz bottle served in a Duvel tulip. Sunset orange body topped by a creamy off-white head. Nose of citrus, mango, pineapple, caramel. Deep bitterness lingers as pineapple, citrus, tea, and pine flavors wash over your mouth. Ever so slight hint of alcohol makes an appearance toward the end of the glass. Very good stuff. carl4beer (287), Fairfax Station, Virginia, USA Oct 8, 2008 22oz. pours a hazy deep golden with small white head. aroma is pine and some pineapple. mouthful is huge hops of stick citrus and pine and a decent caramel malt to back it up. very nice dipa... can pizza port make a bad hop bomb? rkuhnel (1144), Eureka, California, USA Oct 7, 2008 From a 22 oz bottle this poured a copper-orange with small head and light lacing. Nose is citrus hops. Very clean and rich mouthfeel. Very rich flavor with great bitter hops perfectly balanced with the malts.. Very nice bitter finish. Wonderful beer. alraicercsu (106), Ft.Collins, Colorado, USA Oct 5, 2008 Pours a good orange color. Smells strongly of hops and tastes extremly strongly of hops. Too much hoppy bitterness for me.
