Mar 25, 2009 this is the hoppiest thing ive ever drank, even more so than surly furious. though this is much thicker feeling, and at 11.5% abv, it will kick your ass. not something to drink 2 of in one night.

Mar 24, 2009 dark hazy amber pour, with a wicked soft floral hop aroma. Lots of sweet, juicy citrus, and a nice sweet maltiness. The flavor is well balanced between the malt, and the hops. Lots of great citrus notes from the hops, and touches of ripe fruits, some plum, maybe some raisin. Its quite well balanced, and the alcohol is nowhere to be found. A good amount of bittering in the finish, and a welcome hoppy aftertaste. Nice stuff. It’s quite close to a VERY hoppy barley wine, but not quite.

Mar 24, 2009 Bottle. Pours a hazy orangish copper with an off white frothy head. Great lacing. This is a beautiful brew consisting of a strong hop aroma. Each sip is heavenly. Thick body and perfect carbonation. Another fine brew from the boys at Flying Dog!!! Have another? You bet your ass!

Mar 20, 2009 Updated: Jun 1, 2009This Beer is AWESOME. Alcohol is actually pretty well hidden behind the malt and hops. Complex nose and taste, quite enjoyable. Four pack makes for a lively evening. Very well balanced and very tasty!!! Wonderfully hoppy and probably the best beer from Flying Dog!!!!!! WAY UNDERATTED!!!!!

Mar 17, 2009 Bottle. Pours orange amber with a decent off-white head. Nose is sweet tropical fruit and citrus hops. Flavor is an intense balance of citrus hops and caramel malt. Mouthfeel is nice, thick, and sticky. Nice citrus hop finish.

Mar 16, 2009 why explain what is obvious (to non-macro, non-snob micro) appreciators of brew? this is stellar stuff at all levels. hopheads and opposite will find much swamp and jungle to explore in this heady brew. remember: it’s virtually 12%...if you like bourbon, focus on the finish.....
