Hazy amber. Small off-white head. Aroma: Grapefruit, pine. Flavor: Strong mix of grapefuit and pine. Long and very bitter finish with alcahol warming. HOP HEADS ONLY! It is true to the nature of what you think a Rogue IPA would be like.

Medium white head. Hazy yellow body with light carbonation. Intense citrus and grassy hop aroma with orangey notes. Sweetish bitter straw, grass, and citrus taste with malty peppery notes. Fullish body, sharpish mouthfeel. Dry straw, resin, and citrus aftertaste. Very good. (0.75l bottle, Systembolaget Nordstan, Göteborg.)

Bottle as Rouge XS Imperial India Palae Ale, their labelling is aimed to confuse. A hop garden with some maltiness. Grass, some pine, the hops dominate all the way. Not very balanced.

01.11.2008, On tap at the Rogue Ale house in San Francisco. I think this one was a little dissapointing. The colour is golden, no head. Aroma is weak and there is no aromahops.
