Jul 3, 2009 Very huge, dense, creamy head over copper-orange beer, clear but UFO-laden; end of bottle solid yeast. C-hops on cakebottom; citrus notes with bitter orange peel. Bitter, dry, mainly resiny hopflavours, still fruity, the orange peel now as from the pressed oils within, suggesting tarry, viscous liquids. Hopoils dominating to the exclusion of other things. Medium bodied at least, oily and dry. Very classical W.C.- IPA, but this is not really Tomme’s top strength.

Pours hazy orange.

Jun 28, 2009 22oz bottle shared by Woody Chandler, thanks Woody. Poured a hazy amber with a big sticky head. Nose of pine, citrus, and caramel. The flavor was very floral with some pine and hop spiciness. Very interesting that the smell and flavor were so different. Medium bitterness with a crisp, dry finish. Yum yum.

Jun 28, 2009 Bottled (from CK). Pours hazily golden orange with a large, fluffy, white and lacy head. Aroma of citrus and exotic fruity hops ( pineapple, mango) as well as some aromatic nuts, caramel malts and a note of perfume. Sweet caramel and mango sweet flavor is balanced with constant bitterness taming the excessive sweetness. There’s also notes of citrus, spices and herbs in the flavor. Through the end the bitter hops show what they are made of. Lightly carbonated palate is just on the limits of being too sweetly thick, probably it’s on the better side of that faint line. Solid IPA, me likes.

Jun 26, 2009 Pours a hazy gold/orange with decent head. Great aroma. Starts hoppy but fades (too soon) and finshes malty.

Jun 23, 2009 22oz bottle. Opaque orange pour with a medium off-white head. Grainy malt aroma with some citrus hop. Citrus hop flavor with a whole lot of cereal-ish malt and a bitter finish. Not bad, but it’s certainly no Hop 15. I think this bottle may have started to go south. Would love to try it fresh.
