Cloudy amber color, big creamy head. The aroma is fresh, hoppy, not impressive. Medium bodied, less than expected; some toffee flavor and correct bitterness, but not sweet enough fruity nor resiny. This bottle is almost one year old and strangely didn’t keep up gracefully.

cloudy amber color; creamy head. Reasonably good malt and fruity aroma, partially covered by some infection; also some sweat. Good body, good malty flavor, giving some fruitness, quite sweet, but spoiled as well by the infection. Should be tried again.

Beautiful hazy red amber color; creamy head. Strong hoppy aroma, very fruity (oranges), and with pine needles and pine resins. Medium body structure, less sweet than expected, with leading caramel flavor and a very strong bitterness (bitter orange fruitness and some resins). Good.

Aroma: Very aromatic, smelling of pine scented hops.
Appearance: Poured a cloudy orange color with a big frothy, long lasting head which left ample lacing throughout the entire glass.
Flavor: Sweet, malty, hoppy and delicious describe this Double IPA.
Palate: Nice mouthfeel for a big beer like this. Hides the alcohol well and has lots of hops in the finish.
Overall: I love this ale and will have to give it many more tries. It’s going to be a Hoppy Christmas in Hurley. New York!

22 oz. bottle from moejuck, thanks man! Pours cloudy amber-chestnut color with a large and fluffy beige head. Aroma of toffee, citrus and pine forest. Flavor is interesting tart and a bit bready, toasty notes, pine, lemon peel and fresh bitter herbs and evergreen oil in the finish. Medium to full body and smooth carbonation.

Just recently poured fresh from tap. Delicious creamy head and enough citrus to just cut through the hoppiness of this beer

Cloudy amber with big off white head. Hops are held in check by the malt, but a pretty nice bitter finish. Almost bitter w/out the good taste from the hops. Dry. OK....but not great.

Deep burnt orange color, full frothy white head. Alot of pineapple in the nose with carmelized bananas. Hints of citrus and pine but the sugary fruits dominate. Medium bodied and perfectly carbonated. A very nice drink with a crisp hoppy finish. Just not what Im used to in a DIPA, not enough hoppy citrus in the nose. Still, a pretty good beer.

on tap. orange, little head - probably served too cold to tell however. This is a double IPA dominated by its hop components. So, I would argue, that it is not quite as balanced as the brewery claims. Nevertheless, the floral hop aroma, flavors and bitterness are nice. Finishes very bitter, dry.

Bomber purchased from Kazansky’s in Squirrel Hill, Pittsburgh. Pours hazy cider, off white head. Aroma is wet barnyard, fruit, alcohol (sounds like a good time). Flavor is peat, caramel, hops citrus, lingering bitterness, but I can’t shake the barnyard.
