On tap at Raleigh WBF. Pours a clear copper with a thin beige cap that leaves sticky lacing. Aroma of resiny and piney hops, caramel. Taste is grapefruit with piney hops and caramel with some citrus light fruits showing through. Piney finish. Very enjoyable. Yum.

On Tap at Harrison’s in Cary, NC - this brew poured a nice orange color with a thin white head and decent lacing. The aroma was lots of floral hops, grapefruit and pine. Taste was straight forward hoppy with the grapefruit, lemon and a slight detection of spice to round out the great flavor. Nice solid IPA.

Draught at GABF 2008. Clear golden coloured with a medium sized beige head. Hoppy aroma of peaches and pine needles with notes of grass. Fruity flavour of peaches, hops and pine needles. Dry hoppy finish.

draught. The pour produces a full copper boddy with a solid, dense white head. The aroma is crisp, bright, and spicy with well balanced notes of grapefruit, pine, and caramel. The flavor is a moderate attack of prickling, peppery hops which is almost washed away by sweet caramel and leafy herbal notes, but manages to linger on the palate. Hoppyum has a semi-sticky mouthfeel and is an excellent IPA for any occasion, though I’d reccomend the Seeing Double for an occassion which requires true hop onslaught.

Draft at FB. Glowing orange pour, translucent body. A thin white head appears creamy and has modest retention and lacing. the aroma is very clean, full of pine, lightly toasted malt in moderation. Very green and fresh. Alcohol is undetectable. The flavor has light hints of caramel that are quickly subdued by medium bitterness, light acidity, light sweetness and soft orange notes. The mouthfeel is highly carbonated, crisp, light bodied and very quenching. Finishes dry, crisp and lively, brief but satisfying.

Amazing hop aroma. Simcoe is obvious in the flavor, but not overbearing and matches in perfect harmony with the other hops. Bitter finish. Very tasty.

Draft at the brewpub. Orangish copper color with a small off-white head that lasts. Nice aroma of caramel malt and fresh citrusy/resiny hops. Flavor is caramel malt, earth, and citrusy/resiny hops, some orange and a little pine. Not over the top, but good. Body medium.
