This is a GREAT IPA with the typical IPA color and pour. Citrus aroma and very strong hop flavor makes this IPA big, strong, and enjoyable. This is a big beer with a big alcohol content...couldn’t imagine having more then 2 or 3 of these. This was a great find at Party Source in Newport, Kentucky....especially since this is a small batch. Great beer to try if you are having that hop craving. tytoanderso (1387), St. Louis Park, Minnesota, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 17, 2007 Bottle. I quite liked this one. Pours a beautiful rich copper amber with nice sticky white lacing. Nose of bright grapefruit and oily pine with some sweet malt. Rick and oily on the palate with notes of pine resin, tangerine, grapefruit, caramel malt and orange peel. Finish sweet oily piny hops. johnadam2002 (529), Hainesport, New Jersey, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 17, 2007 On tap. Pours amber with white head. Aroma of hops and light fruit. Big flavor of hops with a nice malt background. Very filling. extremeicon (108), Wichita, Kansas, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 16, 2007 Brownish-orange with small white head. Aroma fruity/flowery hops with some caramely malt. First sip was fairly unpleasant as there was a rather unexpected syrupy sweetness. Aftertaste also initially unpleasantly bitter. Got considerably better as it warmed and the flavors melded together better. Still way sweeter than I’d like for the style. michael-pollack (2688), King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 14, 2007 Draught: Aroma is lightly sweet. Smells floral and hoppy with strong notes of grapefruit and a bit of caramel. Poured amber in color with a medium-sized off-white head that diminished slowly. Small lacing. Sparkling. Hazy. Flavor was medium bitter. Tasted of grapefruit, pine, hops, and caramel malt. Medium body. Sticky texture. Lively carbonation. Hoppy but not very bitter finish. Overall, kinda average. Boring but not bad. On the sweeter side for a IIPA. TomDecapolis (3173), Skippack, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 13, 2007 On tap at Capone’s. Pours a lightly hazy golden orange with a small off white creamy/lacing head. Aroma of caramel, nuts, orange and some pine. Nice hop/sweet malt nose. Flavor of malty sweet caramel malt, pine, grapefruit and a good bit of orange. Jukkabro (3023), Tampere, Finland
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 11, 2007 Light orange colored, medium sized yellow head. Cloudy appearance. Rich aroma indeed: strong fruits, flowers and hoppy bitterness, some yeast also there. Medium to full bodied. Flavor is even richer with this fruity tone, nicely drying aftertaste with still some fruity orange. gmcase (113), Indiana, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Jul 10, 2007 Updated: Jul 22, 2007bottle. Scent of some nice hops and sweet malt backbone. Superior lacing with a mouthfeel that is in no way watery but very drinkable. Great hop flavor that finishes with a faint sweet malt taste and a bitter hop finish. Thanks be to Breckenridge for making a great IPA at an affordable price!
