Jun 7, 2002 Updated: Aug 3, 2005ReRate: Obviously my tastes in beer have changed over the last few years because I really like this beer now and find it a little on the mild side regarding hoppiness. Still a good IPA.
Original Rating 6/7/02: Pineapple aroma. Strong citrus flavors throughout. A little too hoppy for my tastes but true to style. Cool label.

Apr 14, 2008 Stappo e fa quasi impressione che annusando il collo della bottiglia quest’aroma così erbaceo sembra quasi origano ma suppongo siano sti luppolazzi della madonna. Comunque stavolta ero abituato all’amaro, non mi ha dato alcun problema: anzi. Stratosferica

Sep 13, 2006 This is one of my favorite ipas. Pours orange, slightly hazy. Leaves nice lace all down the side of the glass. Perfect level of smooth bitterness. Just enough body so it isnt too dry. This beer is all about hop flavor! I love the hop flavor here. I was so happy to see that you have the hop varieties they use here so i can use these hops in my beer!! It says this is a traditional ipa, but it seems more American to me. Very west coast hop profile.

Jun 21, 2002 Sipping as I write. Let’s see..Nice sweet peppery smell, beautiful amber color, slight semi sweet flavor. Delicious really. Strong, punget bite to it. Just what I was hoping for. This is a rather inexpensive way to enjoy a traditional IPA. No foolin’ around, look at the ratings and feel satisfied in the fact that this is a solid IPA. Not the best but a solid placement.

Mar 30, 2005 A big, pungent IPA that outdoes most of the rest in the field. Lessee, there’s Stone, then Hop Devil and Hop Ottin’ and then this. Pay no attention to the 3.1whatever average rating. (Maybe I just had an exceptionally good bottle?) This is definitely for IPA lovers; it’s got that resiny(?) feel and stickiness that comes with a lot of I2PAs nowadays. Pungent, sticky aftertaste, gotta love it. Hard-hitting stuff, not for non-hop-freaks, which may explain its ridiculously low average score on this site.
