| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 20, 2007 Near-white lasting head. Unclear deep copper to amber colored body. Strong, delicious fresh and fruity hop aroma. Complex taste of sweet malts and lots of bittering hops. Hints of alcohol. Good body. Lingering bitter finish. Very nice.

| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Nov 15, 2007 Pours a clear beautiful copper with off white head. The aroma has a big hop punch of grapefruit, tangelo, ripe cantaloupe and faint malt sweetness. Nice. The flavor. Wow. Delicious. Initially the taste seems sweet. But the sweetness is fleeting. Then the grapefruit and tangelo hop flavors break through the malt sweetness in a gradual fashion becoming more and more bitter. Very tasty IIPA with just the right mouth feel for the style. Into the finish the grapefruit and tangelo hop bite evens out at an apex of bitterness with faint background sweetness. xnoxhatex (1305), Grand Rapids/Chicago, Michigan, USA

| 4.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | Nov 12, 2007 A Personal favorite. This beer has been described as "absolutely disgusting" by the large majority of people I know who have tried it. It’s an over-the-top, powerfully hopped Weyerbacher masterpiece.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Nov 12, 2007 Hazy amber orange. Smells of pine and pineapple and apricot. Very fresh hops. Taste is big bright tart and bitter hops (yes i didnt use commas because that is the way the taste arrives). Very much like a lot of Imperial IPAs. Put together well, but really only an IPA enthusiast could have fun having more than a few sips of this. Sampled at the Weyerbacher Brewery in South Easton, PA. Sigmund (2274), Hafrsfjord, Norway
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 7, 2007 Sampled bottle, RBNAG 2007 in Grimstad. ABV was 9%. Amber to orange colour, slightly hazy, decent head. Lovely Simcoe hops aroma. Distinctly hoppy flavour throughout, considerable sweetness but not bad.
