Citrus grapefruit aroma. Appearance is golden with a nice head. Taste is citrus grassy hops with a pleasant copper taste. Palate is nice and carbonated with a resinous taste to it. Overall I am sad I can’t get this in Colorado.

4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 Westmeister (464) - Atlanta, Georgia, USA - MAY 5, 2011
Draft. This beer for its style will not be beat in my opinion. Holy bouquet of awesomeness batman. Pours a golden orange color with a nice white head. Aroma is reeking with fruity and floral hops; from grapefruit to tropical hints. It just smells like the smoothest bowl of fruity pebbles. Tastes of superbly balanced fruity and resiny hops with a great malt backbone. Just an unbelievable IPA that I wake up on Saturdays just wanting to do yardwork so I can earn to drink this fantastic brew.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 dtater (25) - Florida, USA - MAY 3, 2011
Pours a cloudy gold with small white head. It looks like it has character and it delivers. The aroma is hoppy floral pine. The initial taste is bitter but the second is better, as so on as your palate adjusts to a very nice IPA.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 kjc51478 (277) - Cologne, GERMANY - MAY 1, 2011
12 oz Bottle. Appearance is very dark orange, almost amber with medium head. Aroma is primarily citrus with some notes of bread and floral hops. Taste is lightly citrus, sweet malts, cereals with a stark floral hop flavor. Despite strong hop notes, bitterness is nicely subdued being balanced by the big malt character. Brew sits well on the palate, has great balance, and a pleasant, dry aftertaste. Not the best IPA I’ve had, but definitely top notch.

Bottle from Javit from TBS. Awesome. Really a great IPA, quickly became one of my favorites. Taste is very bitter, nice and sharp, with a good pine bite, which I love.

Strong pine and floral aroma. Nice malty almost cotton candy aroma as well. Slightly hazy, orange-golden beer. Thick off white head. Very nice bitterness without any harshness. Very smooth. Big mouth feel with plenty of carbonation. Exceptional IPA.
