UPDATED: APR 27, 2013 Enjoy By 5-17-13. Pours a clear golden orange from the bottle with thin off-white bubbly head and light lacing. Aroma of dank citrus hops, resinous grapefruit and orange. Taste follows, slight sweet malt start but great citrus hop freshness and a lasting bitter finish. Damn solid beer. Even better on tap!
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Enjoy By 05-17-13. Bottle from Proof. Deep gold pour with a frothy white head. Resiny, dank citrus and tropical fruit hops fill the aroma with some candied orange sweetness. Enters with a smooth malt creaminess quickly turning into dank, resiny, wet hops with tropical fruitiness with a lengthy bitter end. Some noticeable alcohol. Damn fine beer.

Hard to imagine a traditional west coast ipa being better than this. Juicy, fresh, hops come through right away and linger on the tongue for a long time. Mango, melon, pinneapple, and of course grapefruit and orange stick out. I like my DIPA’s to have more malt complexity so I will save the perfect ratings for things like hopslam, devil dancer, and pliny the elder. But if you like pure, crisp, hop juice than this might be the top of the mountain...

Pours dark gold with white head and no lacing. Aroma of citrus and floral hops mixed with sweet alcohol and light fruit. Taste is hoppy and nicely balanced with a malty backbone and cough syrup finish. Great double IPA.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
5.17.13, bottle, 11 days old. Clear amber with a big off-white head. Aroma is citrusy and piny hops with a good biscuit/cracker malt background. Taste is super hoppy, medium sweet and malty, leading to a bitter, alcoholic finish. Very full bodied, syrupy/creamy, moderate carbonation. Big but balanced DIPA.

4/20/13 bottle thanks to RobertDale side by side with a 5/17/13 bottle on 4/20/13. Pours a pale copper with a white head of foam. Dank and sweet hop profile. Sweet and bitter earthy notes in the taste. Its probably on purpose, but the 4/20/13 definitely tasted more like weed than the 5/17/13. Very good beer, both of them.

On draught at Redlight Redlight. This beer has a nice amber hue with a white head. Lots of pine and some citrus on the nose. This beer is replete with pine and citrus flavors. Nice bitter finish that fades to candied orange and pine.

4.4 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
05-17-13 batch. Bottle from Julios. Pours out a crystal clear medium golden color with a frothy lacey white head. Powerful citrus-pine aromas. Flavor of citrus and pine with lingering burnt rubber. Just enough bitterness to keep it from being too sweet, but not too sticky. A very solid brew. Smooth and Powerful!
3.7 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Enjoy By 05.17.13 - Golden pour with a white head that leaves behind a nice lacing. Amazing aroma, big time citrus and floral earthy hops. The flavor is equally bold, very bitter citrus hops, a malty backbone but the alcohol is quite noticeable.
