4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 MrHangover (1101) - Den Haag, NETHERLANDS - APR 1, 2013
Bottle, huge thanx to budznudz!! Cheers Chris! This pours out a lovely bright orange, little cloudy and a small white head on top. Aroma is citric forward, grapefruit and lemon mostly, alongside with a small malty presence. Some light peach and mango is present as well. Flavour is quite bitter overall, not really a malty presence detected here. Medium dry mouthfeel. Flavour is longlasting and very nice balanced bitter. Alcohol is very well hidden in this one, alltough finishing a bomber by myself sure left it’s mark.. Another great beer!!
4.9 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20 DocJitsu (307) - California, USA - MAR 29, 2013
Pours a crystal clear, classic golden color with an egg shell/vanilla colored, fat, foamy head. Hop vegetable matter is noted floating after the second half of the bomber is poured. The head retention is better than average. I stick my nose in and, hello grapefruit! Lovely, lovely grapefruit. Mouthfeel is nearly as lovely. Soft, full, wet, but not juicy. The hop hotness cuts what otherwise might express as juiciness. Perfect amount of carbonation scrub on the back of the tongue. Megagrapefruit, some pine around the edges of the tongue, light sulfur, and a bit of onion. This beer’s my hero. One of the best from FFF, in my opinion.

Aroma is florally and very resiny, grapefruit is very present also, nice hoppy kick for sure in the nose. Very hoppy on the tongue up front, the floral comes right threw right away. Nice juicy sweet beer, for being a huge Ipa there is quite a bit of balance.
4.5 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20 Caterwaul (20) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - MAR 25, 2013
Bottle shared with Pixachii. Pours a clear brass color with a fluffy white head. recedes to a thin disk and retains. Intense floral and resiny aroma. I love it. Smells extremely sweet too, with orange flesh and perfumey grapefruit notes. Intense bitterness rushes everywhere and coats the palate. Piney and floral and perfumey. There’s a kind of fruity, juicy sweetness in there that finds some balance with the bitterness, but only just. This is my very favorite double IPA.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20 DesertDevil (195) - Arizona, USA - MAR 23, 2013
22-oz. bomber. Pungent nose of piney resin and fresh-mown grass. Clear light orange color with a tiny, frothy white head. Sticky, chewy hop forward on the taste, with a very piney finish. Quite boozy for an IPA, as the alcohol is readily apparent in each sip. Well-carbonated with a prickly mouthfeel.
4.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20 seth_lfod (117) - Manchester, New Hampshire, USA - MAR 22, 2013
Poured from a 22 bomber into a HF taster. Pours a nice orange amber with a healthy white head. Scent was muted but I could pick up some hop resin and tropical notes. Taste was very hop forward and crisp. No alcohol whatsoever with subtle tropical fruit and pine... Great beer, even better label art.
4.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 beerbaaron (380) - Wisconsin, USA - MAR 21, 2013
Beautiful hazy golden orange. Frothy medium white head, some lasting, drippy lace. Extremely aromatic. Super hops, sweet, citrus, fruity, floral, caramel, orange, peach, grapefruit, a little pine. Full body, resiney, sweet, very balanced. Smooth hop bitter. Cant believe how drinkable this is. Delish..
4.7 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 20/20 MarinEvelyn (133) - Wisconsin, USA - MAR 21, 2013
when I first sniffed this beer, I think it cleared my nostrils. Very bright and refreshing. orange, citrus, floral hops.
Golden blonde color. It’s head is like a receding hair line with, fluffy yet thin.
taste- hoppy, floral, orange. starts with a lot of hops, but finishes very smooth. Only a slight bitter aftertaste.
