naivepegasus (183), USA Sep 18, 2009 Pours a cloudy orange with a little bit less than a finger of light head. Lots in the aroma, various sweet hops and fruits. Really soft sweet initial taste, that builds slowly and increasingly complex as it ends with a really nice bitterness. I was initially disappointed that the hoppiness wasn’t more in your face, but the more I sip, the better it gets. Really complex, really good yobdoog (1426), Woodridge NY, New York, USA Sep 18, 2009 Aroma packs a punch. Lots of grapefruit, citrus, lemon, orange, mango. Great. Flavor has all of the above and a lot of sweetness. Balanced but hangs on for a while, in every direction.. Delicious. LooseCannon (914), Norfolk, Virginia, USA Sep 14, 2009 Bottle courtesy of Allstar at Immy’s Backyard Throwdown. Pours clear amber in color with off white head. Arom a sweet and citrus hops. Taste citrus hops and bitter with bitter finish. slitcher (88), Freeport, Illinois, USA Sep 13, 2009 Pours a slightly hazy gold with a beautiful thick head. Aromas of citrus and...soap? Sweet up front with a nice bitter bite closely following. Bitter finish that seems to go on for ever! This has got to be the smoothest and most drinkable IIPA I’ve ever had. This is pure decadence! It really doen’t get much better than this, well worth the high price tag! hellomisterp (32), Pennsylvania, USA Sep 13, 2009 poured from a bottle into a tulip glass. It starts with a beautiful off-white foamy head. A peachy nose with floral accents. Now to the most important part . . . the taste. Great hop taste upfront followed by a fantastic caramel note. a great complex brew for one of my favorite styles right now. The hop taste continues to line your mouth until your next sip. Believe the hype! ansermadide (496), Kyle, Texas, USA Sep 10, 2009 Sample from July Beer Club Meeting. Cloudy orange-amber color with a soapy head. Flavor is sweet. Weltum thy vced-thyan geriuses. Aroma delectable. This is CANDY! So smooth. Clean. Perfect. MmmcKay (269), Brentwood, Tennessee, USA Sep 7, 2009 Updated: Sep 26, 2009Light golden color. Smells of soapy clean water, citrus, like standing outside a redwood forest. Smells like the Meirwoods in Cali. "Nectar of the gods" says Butters. I agree. Fantastic f’ing beer. Super IPA. Maybe the best that I’ve ever had in my life. "It’s like what honey should taste like. If honey were so lucky" says Sean Lines. ScottyP (314), Brentwood, Tennessee, USA Sep 7, 2009 Pours a clear golden/orange with creamy tan head. Aroma of fresh resiny pine hops, grapefruit, malts. Similar taste, an ideal balance of a hops, malts, alcohol. Best DIPA I’ve ever had hands down. Piny the Younger/Elder here I come!
