Bill Becker (62) - Casper, Wyoming, USA - SEP 23, 2012
It’s pouring a hazy orange with over a 2 finger head of foam..I pulled it from the fridge about an hour ago. The smell is all sorts of hoppy. Citrus, pine, volumes of tropical fruit pineapple is there for sure, and a nice spiciness from the rye. Overall, not overly bitter in the nose. And then I taste it and all of what I’ve written is there as well as a very solid malty taste that adds just the right touch of sweetness. Wow, this is very tasty and I’m not getting much, if any, of a booze burn. Full bodied with lighish carbonation, the mouthfeel is truly grand. Man, that rye really adds a great dimension to a DIPA. Thanks again, Tom! An awesome drinking experience is what I have here.

Bottle at Mads, 20/05 2013. Beautiful clear orange, with a small white head, some lacing. The aroma starts off with citrus and pine, ends with sweet exotic fruit, honey, peach. The taste is special, hoppy, some peach, ends a little spicy, leaves a bitter aftertaste.

Pours a clear medium amber. Nose is peach, resin, honey and some traces of petrol. Taste is quite funky, with ripe bananas, honey, orange zest, toffee, resin. Quite weird and somewhat unbalanced. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

jmgreenuk (1288) - The Hague, NETHERLANDS - MAY 10, 2013
Bottle at the DISOB tasting, Den Haag. Poured a slightly hazy amber with a thin tan head. The aroma is rich fruity and a shade alcoholic. The flavour is medium to strong bitter, rich liquorice, fruit and a lovely lingering warm rich bitterness in the finish. A super beer and well worth the rating.
