| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 22, 2009 Bottled. Orange with beige to white, closer to white head. Aroma is fruity sweet hops. The flavor is a cannon shot of explosive sweet hops and a malt variety mainly caramel. Not balanced sweet hop goes to bitter wet and lasting finish. i notice grapefruit at end. Fun brew. Great brew but taste gets tiring because they are SO explosive Fratto (728), Arlington, Texas, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 19, 2009 On tap at Gingerman Fort Worth. A creamy IPA? Not too much aroma. Great hoppy taste. yemenmocha (363), Glendale, Arizona, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 19, 2009 Hazy copper color with creamy head that retains well.
Very aromatic with creamsickle orange in the nose. A slight herbal/vegetal hop green-ness in the nose too.
Palate is heavily skewed towards the hops & accompanying citrus. Not a lot of malt to round it out. Medium or perhaps fuller bodied than many IPA’s - and nicely "chewy" in a way. areyouinning (72), North Carolina, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 8, 2009 Sweet aroma with some citrus and floral notes. Hop bitterness pervades throughout. Pipper (249), Ohio, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Sep 8, 2009 Bomber from the Village Market into glass. Poured an orangey amber with a little off-white head. The smell was slight, warm and a little piney. The flavor felt very watered down for a "double hopped, DIPA" and was more malty than hoppy to me. A little bitter in the finish over the palate. A smooth drinker but I’m still disappointed about the lack of hops in this one. drowland (1411), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 29, 2009 Sleek 12oz bottle courtesy Cavie poured elegantly into a snifter. The pour is hazy orange... almost orange like a crayon but a bit darker - kinda creepy... and a moderate white head to boot. A pretty tame aroma of sweet bread, a touch of citrus hops, and a hint of alcohol. The flavor is somewhat tame as well - sweet and malty with a touch of orange peel and crackers... not much of the hops except the dry hinting at bitter finish. The mouthfeel is pretty hefty but with good carbonation. DJMonarch (6845), Northwich, Cheshire, England

Hoppy aroma. White head. Golden coloured and very hoppy with a little sweetness. Some dryness in a crisp and bitter malt finish.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 8, 2009 Clear bronze pour with a nice white head, good retention and decent looking lace. Aroma is floral hops, citrus, slightly peachy. Flavor is spicy at the beginning, then sweet, bitter finish. Pine, caramel. Medium body with a smoothness to it, moderate low carbonation and slight alcohol warming at the end. A decent IIPA.
