kps100nj (6), New Jersey, USA does not count Feb 27, 2006 great beer. they should make it all year. I would but it no matter what season. I like it more than most beers i have had ever. Prostman (1075), Pennsylvania, USA Mar 7, 2004 Updated: Feb 5, 2006This was a really great IPA. The color was cloudy gold with a thin white head. The taste was very balanced despite the amount of hops. This is really worth a try.
RE-RATE: 2/4/06 From Bottle: This was bottled about a week ago and it has to be one of my favorite beers. So fresh, so balanced, and so juicy with hops that it isn’t even funny. Darker in color (more amber) than the draft version. I loved this beer and I bet you will to. Highly recommended. gallagwar (30), USA Feb 13, 2007 Wow! A nearly perfect beer. Very hoppy, yet not too bitter. Troegs has come through once again! intouch (14), Lewisberry, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 14, 2006 What can I say?
One of the finest beers I have ever tasted.
Smooth and so very hoppy, what more could anyone ask for?
Pigfoot (2201), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA Mar 11, 2005 From a growler: appearance: a gorgeous golden amber hue, clear, with a huge frothy cap above, lookin’ nice, indeed.
Aroma: pine mixed with caramel, a bright, hoppy amber-y nose, rife with hops, a mellow citric blend, but leavened with other sensations, as well, apple meets toffee, etcetera...and I like that.
Let’s drink, shall we?
Mmmmm! Big, bristling caramel-coated hop feel on the palate, very spicy and slick, with a thick feel on the mouth, a never-ending twang that resounds throughout the senses. Excellent malt back-up. Damn, this is tasty! Slightly sweet, but with no relenting from the hop department, it’s a continual kick, riding on the bready, malty, toffee-like underpinning, a thoroughly tasty tango.
Medium to full in body, with a long, hoppy finish, and a rich, unparallelled flavor...well,except when compared to...nope, not going there...
I haven’t even gotten halfway through the growler, so perhaps there are wonders yet to be had...who know, but the pleasure has been felt, the bell has been rung. Great IPA, Troeg’s!
