Swolf3 (88), Elkton, Maryland, USA Sep 29, 2008 Growler. Poured dark copper with nice white head. Aroma was pine hops and citrus. Taste is fresh and hoppy, very delicious. finishes just as good as it started, a very good DIPA. GMCC2181 (422), Bear, Delaware, USA Sep 28, 2008 Another growler shared by swolf3! Thanks wolf for all the beers. Nice DIPA! Very smooth and fresh. Good head and good lacing. Taste is clean and crisp. Nice hop bitterness,but not overdone. Good texture and carbonation. Good DIPA thanks wolf! JohnQPublic (199), Brooklyn, New York, USA Sep 19, 2008 Draught @ beer Table, Brooklyn. Pours lightly hazy dark copper with a creamy off-white head and solid lacing. Nose is resiny pine hops and sweet caramel. Taste is sweet caramel malt, with the resiny hop character emerging early and persisting throughout. Citrus comes through as well, though secondary to the resiny bitterness that seems to come through as the primary hop note. Finish is rich and just a tad dry, with a lingering bitterness. Full bodied and moderate carbonation. Solid offering for the style. imadeadguy (158), From NJ, now in Clovis, California, USA Aug 27, 2008 Growler/tap. Wow! This is what a dipa should be. Pour is hazy amber with lacy white head. Aromas strong of pine, citrus, and sweet malt. Flavor is all hops. Not dry to finish and I can’t find anything wrong with this one. TheRealBastard (99), The-No, California, USA Aug 25, 2008 Tap at Captain Lawrence. This stuff is scary good. Best session beer on the planet. I debate between this and hopslam as my favorite DIPA’s. Pours foggy amber color with beautiful quarter in white head. It’s piney and juicy. Has a nice hoppy and fresh taste to it. Great summer slammer. This go down very easy, highly recommended double IPA. Slightly underated IMO.
