CaptainCougar (4601), Rockville, Maryland, USA Dec 14, 2007 On tap at the 2007 GABF: Pours a transparent deep golden with a frothy, clingy-lacing off-white head. Aroma of fresh resiny grapefruity hops and sweet pale malt. Body starts with a light malty sugary sweetness with a nice, fresh grapefruity bittering and flavor hoppiness toward a crisp, bittersweet finish. A pretty good IIPA. goldtwins (3672), Nesconset, New York, USA Oct 30, 2007 GABF 2007: Poured a lightly hazed gold with an off-white head. Huge tangerine hops. Smelled fresh like it was pulp. Smells like a breakfast drink. the flavor was very nice citrus and big pine mixed with caramel malt. Medium to full bodied. kp (6000), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Oct 21, 2007 Name: Double IPA

Very nice orangy aroma. Taste is all orange hops, slight malt, and slight astringency. Solid. DA (2280), Portland, Oregon City, Oregon, USA Jul 22, 2007 Updated: Jun 15, 2008On tap at the PDX Green Dragon. Big grapefruit hop flavor and aroma. Bitter and crisp. Enjoyable, but my favorite IIPAs have more sweetness to them. Pours hazy orange with a small white head.
