Its Jacksin,not jackson Bright grapefruit arom,one of superior quality, hops overshadowing any malt quality,sweet and tangy amlt comes through in flaovr with all kinds of citrusy ornaments,reminding you of the hops you thought would dominate,a very pleasant bitter finish(not really punishing as the label predicts)All the wonderful qualities of a great DIPA. A slightly gentler body makes this an extremely drinkable big hop brew,you can’t say that about most,but the price diminishes the chance that you can in fact have more then 1 or 2

Dec 19, 2009 Bottle at the Comet Cafe in Milwaukee. Pours a rich amber color with a medium off-white head which leaves a few lines of lacing. Aroma is caramel malts, citrus hops, tangerine, and orange. Taste is much the same. Tastes more like an APA or IPA than a DIPA. It actually has a more pungent malt backbone than I expected. Not too bad.

Taste is Centennial all the way, but there is a bit more caramel backbone in this then some other Centennial IPAs. Finishes clean with a resinous hop mouthfeel. Solid.

Dec 11, 2009 Pours a deep reddish brown cloudy color with a magnificent tan head that leaves a nice sticky lacing. Aroma of pine and citrus notes, with subtle floral and caramel scents beneath it. Taste is dominated by the bitterness of hops, with very little sweetness to balance it. Slightly watery mouthfeel.

Nov 15, 2009 Bottle: Pours a transparent copper amber with a well-lacing froth of off-white head. Aroma of fresh resiny piny and grapefruit citrus hops over a sweet caramel malty backdrop. Body starts with good fullness and lots of juicy flavor hops and resiny bitterness well balance with sweet caramel and toffee before a full, bittersweet finish. A well-made and enjoyable double IPA.
