Mar 1, 2009 Bottle. Pours an orange color with a decent head. Aroma is earthy, pine, and floral hops. Flavor is spruce and pine. Very smooth aftertaste for an IPA. Good mouth feel and easy to drink.

Feb 5, 2008 Nice grapefruit and pine hop aroma. Pours a reddish-amber with a nice foamy off-white head. Flavor isn’t as hop heavy as I was expecting, just a nice hint of citrus and bitterness, and an underlaying caramel hint from the malts. Nice thick mouthfeel, and a decent bitter finish.

Jul 25, 2006 Clear reddish amber pour under a tall rocky off-white head. Very fragrant brew with pine resin and grapefruits bubbling out of the settling head. Citrusy and hoppy flavor but not as well balanced as other impy IPAs. Rich and smooth mouthfeel and a sinister (in a good way) bitter finish with some alcohol sneeking out every half sip or so.

Oct 26, 2007 Aroma is flowers and catnip. Clear amber hue, tan head, and good lace. Citrus flavor with bitter finish. A bit of a let down for sure.

May 20, 2007 Updated: Jul 16, 2007Bitter hops blended with sweet malts. Some sweet citrus up front. Medium body/mouthfeel. Dry bitter finish. Alcohol on the nose, pretty well hidden in the mouth. Drinkable. Mildly acidic. Not a bad double IPA. Not as heavy as Dogfish Head 90 min IPA.

Nov 3, 2007 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.

Dec 4, 2007 22 oz. bottle. Rating from memory here. Amber color with a big white head. Aroma was lots of citrus hops, but also a noticeable amount of bready malt. Somewhat resinous, grapefruit flavor with some caramel malt as well. Good, but it was a bit toned down for an IIPA.
