Oct 30, 2008 I am sorry... I expected much more out of this beer. Not saying it is a bad beer, but with a name like Hop-Ocalypse and having a mushroom cloud on the lable I expected a DAMN STRONG HOPPY IPA. But for being an IPA its still pretty decent beer. You easily detect the scent of fresh hops on the nose. The color is a dark copper tone. The taste had your typical hops and malt with a slight hint of fruit.

Oct 23, 2008 Bottle from bu11zeye. Opens with the sound of a pellet gun, and pours with a huge, rocky white head and a clear orange body. Aroma of citrus hops, grapefruit, and a little bit of toffee following. Taste is boring and kind of bland, hop bitterness of a Pale Ale with a lot of malts and ice tea. Some hops towards the finish and a bit of salt. Water like texture, lively bubbles.

Oct 2, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours deep copper with thin, tight khaki head. The aroma is freshly mown lawn, cotton candy, caramel, and citrus. The flavor is iced tea, grapefruit, and ample bitterness. It’s piney and herbal toward the finish. Decent, but it really needs more hop flavor (not just disembodied bitterness).

Sep 28, 2008 Bottle. Average head with off-white color. Fair lacing and amber color. Hints of caramel, wood, and heavy lime. Medium body and oily texture with bitter finish. The smell was very hoppy, the taste not so much.
