| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Mar 11, 2009 Bomber. Nose is full of hoppiness. Pine resin most prominent with some good pineapple, sweet florals, and some melon. Pours a nice amber gold with a good inch of creamy off white head. Great hop flavors as well. Flavors follow the nose well, with some white peach and a hint of caramel too Mouth is full and has a good bitterness to it while still being very smooth. Not too much carbonation, almost flat. Pretty outstanding, up there with the greats! mrant (330), New York, USA

| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Mar 9, 2009 Bottle from Josh who flew it in from Charlottesville. Lots of gratitude. Beautiful copper color with a multifinger beige head. Aromas of hop waft from a foot away. It’s resin. Oh yes. Medium plus body with creamy/frothy carbonation. Flavor is fresh, light pine. I’m sure there’s grapefruit rind as well. But the pine is strong enough to remind me of the old Wizard Wick air fresheners. Must be some malt in there, but who cares. OMG this is hoppy. But it’s not excruciatingly bitter in the finish. Or maybe it is. Damn this is immensely great stuff. Tweety (343), Vancouver, Washington, USA
