May 22, 2004 Nice dense light beige head which lasts for a while. Very interesting aroma. Very fruity hops with hints of sweet grapefruit. I like it. Color is a dark ruby brown. Good $hit. Flavor is excellent. Perfectly balanced. Good malt backbone with a generous helping of hops. Citrus fruit present with a little bit of roasted grains. Finish is pretty bitter but not too much. More grapefruit and a nice alcohol warming. A top quality beer and one that will find a permanent home in my fridge. Bonus points for the great bottle and description. Worth buying just for that.

Aug 19, 2003 Updated: Oct 26, 2003Right away you can tell this is a strong ale. Thick and dark and syrupy in the pour with almost no head and a little creamy lacing around the surface. The taste is very hoppy with a nice full fell in the mouth. Winey and slightly syrupy in the aftertaste, with hints of dates and figs, wuth otherwise not overly fruity, and very little aroma. Brilliant lacing and incredible to drink...Highly recommended!!!

Aug 8, 2007 22 oz. I shared this with a buddy and ended up being dissapointed that I had to share. Great aroma and the finish is awesome. I had a hard time placing it in a certain style, though.

Jan 19, 2005 Deep copper color with ruby highlights.Nice rocky tan head and nice lace.The smell is sweet with apples,grapefruit, and a light hint of malt.The taste had apples,hops, and a little malt.Hop bitterness in the finish.Well balanced.Medium-heavy body with lots of carbonation sting.Wouldn’t take many of these to mess someone up.Seem to have more kick than 7.2%.Good beer indeed.

Feb 14, 2004 Updated: Dec 9, 2004I had my first Arrogant Bastard at the San Diego Marriott Marina outdoor bar. Sure, it burns, but it’s a good burn. Can’t wait to try Double Bastard! Strong aroma of tea. I’m not worthy.

Jun 21, 2004 Very unique strong ale. A classic for real beer drinkers. Pours a dark redish brown. Punishing hoppy and spicy nose wish creamy head. Has a strong malty taste, very rich and up a notch by a also strong hop presence. It finishes with a great spicy bitterness which kicks this beer onto a whole new level. Good stuff

Jun 6, 2004 I never thought something from my hometown could be so good. Very smooth, tastes similar to a Sam Adams with a nice bite. Dark amber color. Only flaw is the slightly harsh aftertaste. Nevertheless, the beer of choice for feeling loose quick.

Jun 8, 2004 This is by far my favorite beer. Medium/Dark pour, slight head, very hoppy aroma. The after taste while stong is yet strangly pleasant. Seems to have a touch of citurs....I am worthy, mouth watering typing this. Started on Stoned IPA got hooked on the ole Bastard....
