beachbum25 (602), Powellville, Maryland, USA Jun 11, 2008 On tap @ Arundel Mills. Clear orange color w/a slight white head. Strong pine hop aroma. Strong hop flavor up front, really stronger than I would prefer. Traces of grapefruit as well, but I thought this one was a little more one dementional, could use a little more balance on the finish, ala DFH 90 Minute. Its a Hop Bomb & the hop heads will love it though, but it left me wanting a little more.
