Re-rate 6/14/08. Nice copper color with a off-white head and some really nice lacing. The aroma is fruity with hops but not over powering. Sweet caramel malts, a bit candy-like, with grapefruit hops. Some bitterness but the hops are relatively tame for the style. Balanced nicely. This is a nice beer but could use stronger hops to make it a true top Imperial IPA.

does not count  Aug 29, 2008 Amber, brilliant color, thin tan head, caramel nose - big flavor with heavy bitterness to come - very likable, but maybe more with slightly less bitterness in end.

Aug 26, 2008 Nice light copper pour. Weird hoppy aroma. I think I like it! Malty. Hoppy. Sweet and sticky. The crazy hoppy flavors are subdued by the malt. The carbonation seems just about right here. Very nice.

does not count Aug 26, 2008 Updated: Aug 27, 2008One of my favorites, for sure my favorite IPA. A hint fruity, with a great hop finish. I can taste it just thinking of it.

Aug 25, 2008 Hop filtered at Dayton Alefest - Amber color with an off white head. Very hoppy aroma. Hoppy citrus flavor with a note or two of honey. Sharp bitter start on the tongue with a bitter finish that does not hang around.

Aug 23, 2008 Really good IPA. Poors a dark amber with a strong aroma full of many flavors. Bitter finish left something missing, but a great bottled IPA.
