Dark amber pour with thin head. Sweet, heavy body. Sipper, borders on barleywine. Good stuff.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Appearance is dreadful, cloudy and unappetizing in color. But the flavor is complex, refreshing and punchy... Citrus notes.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle 12 fl oz. pours clear copper with some residue. Aroma of pine and grapefruit. Taste is malty, pine, citrus, grapefruit and a bit earthy. Good beer.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
12oz bottle at ABV. Pours apricot orange with a thick white head. Aroma has huge notes of pineapple, oranges and grapefruit. Taste is juicy hops, tropical fruits and a slight hint of pine. The hops are nicely balanced against the malts. This was a fairly well baalnced IPA that was definitely drinkable.
3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
a bit toast aroma, floral, cloudy red, and a thick white head. strong bitterness and soft sweetness.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pretty good experience, but I can’t stand the sight of sediment floating around in my beer! Hold this up to a bright light and you will see a turbid mess. Yet, the Double Simcoe smells wonderful and has a nice bite to it. For a DIPA, I actually noticed the malt backbone, which held this thing together. Aesthetically unappealing, but decent brew.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
12oz bottle. Pours a murky dark orange color with a thin layer of off white head. Aroma is tons of Simcoe hops! Grapefruit, pineapple, tangerine, with some bready malt characteristics. Taste is what I expected....bitter (in a good way). Lots of grapefruit, pine, resin, and some sweet malt.
3.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
UPDATED: MAY 26, 2013 Poured from a growler. Solid half inch creamy head that leaves a lot of lacing. Long lasting. Alcohol leaves decent legs as the glass swirls. Aroma is muted, perhaps a little yeasty. Not getting the simcoe that I was expecting. Cloudy that doesn’t clear as warmed in the hand. Slight hints of caramel in the after bite followed by a bit hoppiness. Easy drinking. Almost sessionable if it wasn’t for the 9%.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Dark caramel color with a nice cream colored head with spotty lacing. Aroma of citrus, toast, dank, and caramel. Well balanced taste; plenty of good bitterness. Medium body; dry. Nice.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
An orangebrown beer with a weak and beige head. Aroma is tropical, mangos, pineapples, grapefruits and pine, some fructose. Taste starts with strong bitterness, but it’s balanced with nice/low sweetness, pine, some grapefruits, hint of caramell. The aftertaste is quite dry and there are also even some resin. Almost full bodied, slippery and nice to drink. Very nice DIPA that qives what it promises, strong bitterness and balanced sweetness, no fruits in the taste, but straightforward and piney bitterness.
