Pours betwween a maroon and semi hazed amber with a lasting beige head. Smell is vibrant, sweet fruity hoppiness with an almost tropical leaning. Taste is fruity and hoppy, with lasting bitterness. Some pine and tea flavors as well. Medium bodied and appropriate carbonation. Nice strong bitterness with no astringency. Very clean and easy drinking and although it could be a slight bit richer, this is a fantastic double IPA!
jbuzz (507), South Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Oct 6, 2008 Single from Three Cellaes Milwaukee. Another good beer from Tyranena. Cituris and bitter. And a nice blend of the two. AgentSteve (829), SF Bay Area, California, USA Oct 1, 2008 Pours hazy dark copper with thin cream colored head. Nose is floral and earthy hops with some caramel malt. The flavor is quite the same, with a smooth mouthfeel. Petrucci914 (372), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA Oct 1, 2008 Pours an amber color. A little afraid because I got no head with an aggressive pour, but I think my Duvel glass is too wide. Aroma is grapefruit, pineapple, and some earthiness. Taste is grapefruit, pineapple, peppery spice, with a caramel malt backbone and a medium-bitter finish. Take HopSlam and add a bigger malt backbone and there ya go. CaryTheDude (258), Ripon, Wisconsin, USA Sep 30, 2008 Crushed with Jakebra. I love hops, Hops, hops, hops. Bitter bitter hops. Dig it big time. Excellent brew from one of Wisconsin’s best breweries. Awesome name as well. stankenk (60), Maplewood, Minnesota, USA Sep 28, 2008 ABR ’08 - Pours a dark copper color with off white head. The nose is a nice balance of hop and sweetness. Comes across the palate with a medium amount of carbonation. Flavor is nice with a good amount of hop but yet still well balanced. Finish is plain hops but not over powering. Overall a really nice brew and one that I am glad to have tried; and I’m sure I’ll try it again.
