I really like this DIPA although it tastes almost like a IPA because I’m reviewing this in March. Burnt orange in color after pouring the bottle into a tulip. Medium carbonation and a nice hoppy/citrus smell...also some sweetness. Sweet aftertaste, which I like along with hops...yum! No real aftertaste to me, very clean finish on the palate. I don’t think I’d guess this beer was 10%...tastes more like 6% or so...very deceiving! I could probably drink 2-3 in one session but that’s about it.

28th June 2008. Hoppy beer with honey. Nice grapefruity hops - smooth with a semi bitter finish. The bitterness is nicely offset by the well integrated honey. A very nice refreshing hoppy beer.

12 oz bottle - pours a cloudy copper with two finger head that leaves lacing throughout - strong citrus and floral hops in the aroma and taste - very bitter - overall this is a very good beer that I throughly enjoyed

Bottle: Poured a dark copper with a little head. The aroma was hops, floral, and citrus. The flavor was hops, hops, slight bitterness and a touch of sweet citrus. Overall, this was actually VERY smooth and didn’t burn the taste buds. Excellent!

Slam me! The complexity is fantastic -sweet honey, piney resin, and so so hoppy. 10%ABV Need more!

Sampled in NC, bottle. Great name, beer was great, just not exceptional. Might have been the hype, but felt a little out of balance for my tastes. The IBU’s are not as high as it tastes, no hint of alcohol, just biting hops.

Bottle courtesy of DA from Fever..thanks! Golden/brown pour. Definitely a honey scent, as the bottle promises. Taste is hops, hops, and more hops. Very little sweetness, bitter all the way through. There really aren’t many better IPAs/DIPAs out there. Exceptional beer.

Bottle at Oliver Twist in April 09. Fantastic beer! A lot of tropical fruits and citrus in aroma and flavor. Bitter but also very balanced. Smooth, and easy to drink despite 10%. Without doubt one of the best beers I have ever tasted.
