Beer pours large fluffy white head with tons of lacing. Flavor is excellent with nice hoppy, skunk bud flavor. Great IPA which is underrated in my opinion. fiulijn (7520), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Mar 2, 2006 Beautiful copper color with a giant head. The aroma is sweet, hoppy, fruity (oranges, grapefruit and apricots) and with some vanilla. The body is full, malty, almost chewy even if the gravity is not high, with lovely hop resins and good fruitnees; mellow feeling. At this ABV, excellent! harlequinn (2745), Tacoma, Washington, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 10, 2004 Pours a deep golden amber with a nice fluffy egg white head and some great sticky lacing. Aroma is slightly medicinal, hoppy and finally dirty dishwater, also some peppermint and herbs upon second smell. This is a great over the top hoppy IPA with some very fresh lively acidity, citrusy zing and just slightly under-balanced on the malt side, but it works for it, as it comes through in a toasty, bready aftertaste. The finish is very crisp and dry, leaving you wanting more. Very nice and clean! JonR888710 (999), Cochabamba, Bolivia
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Jan 18, 2004 Golden honey color with a slight brown tint. Head is thick, long lasting and white. Very hoppy smell- powerful, ruby-red grapefruit contrasted exquisitely with sweet pear. Strong and succulent flavor. Pine, peach, pear, and grapefruit all teeter on the brink of sweet and bitter without tipping the scale in favor of one. Good balance, very tasty. Bittersweet aftertaste. This is one of the better IPA’s out there, especially for those like me who enjoy sweeter IPA’s. Brought to me by my good friend Jeremy from Rochester, NY. Pigfoot (2226), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | May 17, 2004 Appearance: clear, pale orange color, fine, if short, off-white head.
Aroma: bristling with pine, citrus, grapefruit, pineapple. Quite a bit of hoppiness in this nose!
Taste: fierce and fiery hop bitterness right up front on the palate, but much appreciated and quite delightful.
Body is about medium and of sufficient heft, although malt is a bit lean in this IPA, abd the hops continue to stand tall in the saddle throughout the drink. But that’s what I like, li’l ol’ hophead, me.
Relentless flavor, tasty, tasty.
Real humdinger of an IPA that I’d gladly return to, anytime.
