Mar 27, 2009 I heard about this in my "Extreme Homebrewing" book written by the owner/founder Sam Caligianoe, and I was expecting more. The story of this beer goes: my best friend works at a liquor store and got this beer from a guy in Ontario who traded trough ratebeer. The guy in Ontario got some Wild Rose Imperial IPA and I think he got the better deal. This is a very nice beer, and I would give it to my friends, but after reading about the Zopinator and considering it for a future batch I think I will keep searching. Just not quite the hops kick in the mouth I thought I was going to get.

Mar 27, 2009 From the bottle. Great floral aroma, very hopy nose. Interesting flavour bitter but not over powering. there is just a little something else though. It’s probably the mystery HopX,.,..... It has a very dry finish and smooth mouth fee. It’s a good IPA, But I like them Stronger.

Mar 26, 2009 Bottle. Poured a clear yellow-orange color and had a minimal white head with little lacing. The aroma was very hoppy and had hints of citrus, floral, and pine hops. The beer has a medium body, creamy texture, soft carbonation, and a bitter finish. The flavor follows the aroma and is very hoppy. Overall, I really like this beer. It has a very unique flavor from the combination of hops. This is a great beer to drink for flavor.

Mar 26, 2009 On tap at the Ginger Man. Good, balanced IPA, but lacking a little oomph all the way around. The DFH 90 minute is a much better brew all around. As another rater said it’s DFH with "training wheels."

Mar 25, 2009 Updated: Apr 1, 200912 oz. bottle - pours an amber golden color, with little head. Not a big IPA fan in general, but this is one of my favorites. Aromas of hops, pine, and citrus as well as sweet smells I normally associated with white wine. Smooth in the mouth, and very easy to drink. Not too bitter for me, which is why I liked it.

Mar 25, 2009 Acquired in a trade with Matt7215. Pours a nice coppery orange with a nice white head. Aroma is very complex. grapefruit, pine, floral notes, soft fruits, spice... there is more but I can’t put my finger on the number of smells. Tastes very bright and fresh. Grapefruit, pine, resin, cantaloupe, flowers, spices, cedar, and orange. Palate is very nice. Really, really good beer. Extremely drinkable and delicious. Thanks Matt!

Mar 22, 2009 The 60 Minute IPA pours clear orange with a white head. Aroma is primarily hoppy in character. This medium bodied beer is very well balanced. Hops, alcohol and medium carbonation level merge together with some tasty apples to produce a wonderful concoction. There’s even a slight earthiness that gives the brew added complexity. The finish is bittersweet - a delicious experience.
