Dec 13, 2009 Bottle from a trade with Daknole. Pours dark golden color with off white head. Citrusy hop aroma with lots of grapefruit. Lots of hop bitterness but not overdone. Grapefruit rind is the dominant flavor with light maltiness. Medium body with average carbonation. Excellent. Thanks Dak.

Dec 8, 2009 Let me start by saying, this could be my favorite IPA of all time. I was lucky enough to score a 1/6 bbl of this stuff for me draft system, and boy does it go quick. Pale golden, somewhat orange in color, with very little lacing, disappearing in minutes. The taste is all citrus; grapefruit, apricot, and melon flavors, with plenty of acidity. Hops are all there, and a good amount of crisp bite. The drinkability of this beer is like no other, every time I put the glass down, my mind thinks to automatically grab for another gulp. There are very few IPA’s out there that can match Sculpin.

Dec 8, 2009 Bomber. Citrus aroma is fantasic. Sweet mago lights up the nose. Cooper body with good head a sugar coat of lace. Dry citrus hop with some sugary malt. Not much to say just good, cool and crisp on palate.

Dec 6, 2009 22 oz. bottle courtesy of agl108. Pours a hazy gold with a smallish off-white head. A powerful aroma of grapefruits, apricots, peaches, lemons, and resiny pine. Medium-bodied and sticky. Tongue-strippingly harsh. There is a touch of caramel upfront taste-wise, but the flavor is predominantly hoppy. Loads of grapefruits, apricots, and peaches in the mix. A bit of warming alcohol throughout. Quite tasty.

Dec 5, 2009 Traded bottle. Really pretty pour. Amber/bronze/gold colour with a medium off-white, foamy head. Perfect carbonation and nice lacing. Huge aroma of spruce, mandarin oranges, and pineapple. Flavour was more piney hops and a little perfume. A hint of alcohol in the long finish. Not bad but more straight bitterness than hop flavour if that makes sense.

Dec 2, 2009 Shared with tarheels86. One of the best IPAs I’ve tried to date. Pours golden with a nice head. Tastes strongly of butterscotch, caramel, and citrus from the hops. Nice lacing. Would drink again.

Nov 30, 2009 Cask. Pours unclear orange with a white head. Juicy sweet citric fruit aroma with some piny notes. The flavor brings an awesome blast of piny hops, as well as citrus and other fruity notes. Finishes just a touch too bitter for my tastes, but still a really awesome beer.
