Mar 9, 2008 Good value but overall not great. Alcohol is hidden well but left a metalic taste in my mouth. Thx frejaz

Mar 3, 2008 Pours a nice amber. Sweet and hoppy aroma. It is very strong and you can feel and taste that. Mostly earth and tree with a touch of malt. Overall I thought this lacked that extra kick but still not bad.

Mar 3, 2008 Nice to see American IPA with hop depth (not grapefruit rind). Oh, this is a IIPA? Maybe a little weak for that. Floral, spicy, orange hops. No depth, especially in bready malt. I guess it hid it’s alcohol well, I had no idea this was a IIPA. Very balanced for the style. Good, but not a huge fan.

Mar 3, 2008 Bottle from Beerman6686. Aroma of earthy, grassy, floral, herbal, and English hops. Sort of reminds me of a imperial pilsner. Pours a hazy orange with a soapy head and nice sticky lacing. Flavor is floral and grassy with a touch of aspirin. Malt backbone is a touch bready. It is by no means bad. It is very drinkable for being 9.2%, but something just does not work with this one.

Mar 2, 2008 Great tasting brew!! I wanted to try this because of the fact it’s a double IPA, and I was not disappointed. Pours good and brown with a very distinct hoppy taste. Gradually, the beer just seemed better as it was going down. I was very happy to "pop" the top off this frosty bottle.

Mar 1, 2008 This doesnt taste quite like a double IPA. But apparently it is. 9.2 alc and double hopped. Its well balanced which would usually be a good thing but when I go for an imperial IPA its because Im craving big time hops. But what the hell, how many imperials can you get for 2 bucks, not many. Good Value

Feb 27, 2008 this is an interesting double IPA. the nose is somewhat bland with scents of grass, baking bread, and a little hoppy sweetness. pours a nice, hazy orange with no head. flavor is lacking some of the hop punch you would expect from a double. i get more malt and a sourness along with an unexpected bite on the backend. not all that complex and leaves a bit to be desired. with some work, this could be a good one.

Feb 24, 2008 Slightly cloudy deep orange pour with decent head. Piney and floral aromas and tastes dominate. Not bad... smooth for 9.2%. Overall a little too bitter and soapy for me.
