UPDATED: JUN 28, 2022 From the Bottle 14/08/2014 Big hop aroma. Small white head. Golden coloured slightly hazy in appearance hoppy and fruity with pineapple and citrus flavours. A hint of dryness in a bitter lasting malt finish.

UPDATED: NOV 16, 2020 This beer is very bitter, with heavy hop aroma and palate of sweetness, you have to drink it slowly; because of the prior taste of bitterness there is nothing left for the feeling of sugar turning into sour. With smokey orange color, this is a great brew.

UPDATED: AUG 5, 2023 Had in 2020, August 4th to be exact. This beer is very hoppy with a slightly sweet bitterness. Citrus and fruity flavors from the hops. It has a good solid malt backbone and a balanced flavor profile. For an IIPA the ABV is a little on the low side, but HEY! if the taste is great go with it.

UPDATED: MAR 23, 2020 Hazy appearance with an almost muddy amber/ brown color to it, pours with a half finger worth of anemic looking head that has poor retention to it and leaves watery lacing that runs down the side of the glass. Nice aroma to it, a bit more ale character then most IPA's with a good amount of caramel malt to it, as well as some fruity hop notes of apricot, citrus and melon. Good amount of fruity hop flavors forward, mildly bitter with a nicely balanced blend of apricot, grapefruit and marmalade flavors to it. Smooth bodied malt base with a good amount of sweetness to it's dark amber caramel flavor, some hints of toasted biscuits with a faint coffee bitterness and ghostly hints of amaretto towards the back end. Finish is a bit more of the IPA expected with a bitter, pithy orange flavor that has a faintly astringent, medicinal hint to it that lingers on the aftertaste. Medium bodied with a fairly below average amount of carbonation to it keeps if from really feeling “bright” but it is well balanced with a fruity, caramel ale sweetness forward and a moderately bitter IPA finish to it.

UPDATED: APR 4, 2019 This is a solid clean IPA. Not super strong on the hops/IBU, but more of the sweeter kind. I'd say closer to a Northwest IPA vs. the citrus of the West Coast and tropical IPAs down south. Worth the try....kind of pricey though.

UPDATED: MAR 10, 2019 Bottle 33cl. Thin head, pours clear orange. Citrus, pine, hop. Heavy sweat, heavy bitterness. Very good!

UPDATED: FEB 28, 2019 De geur is heel fruitig, nootig. Weinig schuim als je uitschenkt.. De smaak is typisch ipa, niet mijn ding dus.

UPDATED: FEB 14, 2019 Bottiglia. Il gusto al naso va sul luppolo e sul floreale. L'intensità olfattiva è elevata e la continuità olfattiva è apprezzabile. Il cappello di schiuma ha una discreta resistenza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. La carbonazione è nella norma. Il liquido è di apparenza opalescente. La frizzantezza si manifesta sotto forma di perlage costituito da poche bollicine fini con carbonazione nella media. Il colore è ambrato. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è carico. L'intensità gustativa è elevata. La costanza gustativa è buona. Il gusto è piacevolissimo. Le sensazioni boccali finali sono luppolate e di pronta beva. Il finale è amarognolo. Il retrogusto è intenso. In bocca l'aroma riconosce indizi di miele, crosta di pane, frutta secca, luppolo, resina, agrumi, pompelmo e alcol presente non invadente.

UPDATED: FEB 4, 2020 Imperial ipa de 7,77 % abv et 76 ebu. Maltage avec 4 malts spécifiques des fermes Rogue. Houblonnage septuple qui est tout un programme en lui-même : liberty, newport, revolution, rebel, independant, freedom et alluvial. Mon exemplaire était à 3 mois après sa date, ce qui aurait dû l'adoucir, mais nous allons voir qu'il n'en était rien … Couleur orangé roux, avec un léger voile et particules en suspension. Bulles fines, partout, bien vives. Mousse beige, à très gros flocons, épaisse, qui se réduit ensuite en une masse informe, peu alléchante. Arômes de résine, abricot confit, fruit de la passion, zeste de mandarine. 1ère bouche très résinée, avec un produit pharmaceutique mentholé. Arrière-bouche chimique, arracheuse de dents. 2ème avec cuir tanné, after eight. Arrière-bouche sur un cirage imperméabilisant. Longueur qui ne fait rien pour adoucir les mœurs .. On crie au secours !! Aucun équilibre, aucune harmonie. Jambes très collantes. Levure correcte. Alcool correct, mais qui panique devant ce qu'on lui demande de travailler. Finale navrante au possible. CONCLUSION : autant d'ingrédients pour un résultat aussi moche, j'appelle cela soit du gaspillage soit de l'esbrouffe … L'un et l'autre sont idiots !! (2/1/1/1/1)

Una de las mejores ipa que he probado, a la nariz tipica ipa y tambien al paladar, lupulos muy bien pronunciados con un leve toque citrico. Esta' muy buena al altura de Rogue
