3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20 matthewjk (744) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - JAN 8, 2013Poured from 22oz courtesy (craftbeerconnect) - This is no "wipeout" of an IPA, this is spot on! Tidal wave of hops hits all the right marks; considerable malty undertone. Nicely crafted.

From a bomber. Aroma of resiny pine, grapefruit, lemon, and citrus. Flavor is bold pine upfront, lemon, citrus, grapefruit, and a very faint malt. Giant hop bomb, which isn’t a bad thing to me :) very good west coast Ipa.

Pours hazy gold with white head, big bubbles, and nice lacing. Aroma is lighter than I expected, but contains noticeable hops. Taste is really good. Tons of grapefruit, pine, bubblegum, and some sweet malts.
4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 fantti (464) - FINLAND - JUN 7, 2013
Kaatuu lasiin kullankeltaisena ja sameana, noin parin sormen paksuisella todella tiiviin näköisellä vaahdolla, joka jättää vahvaa pitsiä tulppaanin reunoille. Haju on sekoitus havua, pihkaa ja trooppisia hedelmiä. Ananas ja mango tulevat ainakin mieleen, hieman sitrustakin saattaa olla joukossa. Kaiken kaikkiaan todella monipuolinen ja intensiivinen tuoksu. Maku ei ole ihan hajun tasolla, siitä löytyy hieman karkeahkoakin humalointia. Metsäisyys on vahvana pääosassa: havua ja puuta löytyy, hieman pihkaakin on joukossa. Hivenen greippiä löytyy myös joukosta, mutta pääpaino on havuisuudessa. Suutuntuma on reilulla kädellä humaloitu, hiilihappoakin löytyy yleisvaikutelman ollessa hyvin kuiva. Monipuolinen haju on todella upea maun jäädessä hieman jälkeen, mutta kaiken kaikkiaan tämä on yksi parhaista IPOista, mitä olen juonut. Lisää ehdottomasti kiinnostusta panimoa kohtaan.

Very good IPA. Very refreshing, plenty of pine and grapefruit flavours and some sweeter malt flavours to round it off. Just a top class IPA!

Has a slight smell of hops but not much. There is a very strong grapefruit flavored bitterness that is rather refreshing.

Pours a light golden colour with a pleasant head and some lacing. Lime zest, yeast donut, pine resin on nose followed by flavours of white pepper & a hint of anise in the aftertaste on a smooth malty palate. Very enjoyable.
