12 oz. bottle. Clear, golden pour with a thin, white head. Decent amount of lacing. Big aroma of citrus hops. Flavor is more of the same, with a nice mix of resin and some earthy funk. Long, bitter finish. Really nice beer.

Dec 21, 2009 Bottle. 12 oz. Split with jredmond. Pours hazy/cloudy hay golden with a fine, off-white head. Aroma of fresh hops, vanilla, grapefruit, caramel, toffee, barley, yeast, bread, and hints of banana. Medium bodied with a crisp, tangy mouthfeel and a little bite in the finish. Extraordinary Imperial IPA.

Dec 21, 2009 Bottle: Citrusy sweet on the nose, some rind, barnish or wet hops. Pale orange, slight haze, large frothy white head. Bright and alcoholic, big, decent malt base but seems a little young and green. Its on the malty side, not as hoppy as one might expect. Minor astringency. Fairly good stuff.

Dec 15, 2009 Bottle Pours a cloudy yellow gold with a thin white head which leaves quickly. Leaves spotty lacing rings. Aroma is orange citrus with malt undertones. I get pine and caramel. Has a good carbonation. The flavor is excellent. Sharply bitter leading up to a good swift hoppy ending. Has a medium body, with an oily texture. Has a good strong finish. The aftertaste is a dousy real good and lingering. This is real good, I love it.

Dec 14, 2009 Bottled. 3 Små Rum. Deep golden colour with low foam. Tea, almond paste and honey in aroma. The tea probably from Warrior or Columbus hops. Really malty backbone, and the hops stand back slightly. Almonds, yet with a juicy mouthfeel but the honey is there. Not the cleanest 2IPA. The bitterness is pretty subtle for the style. Residual sugars on a perfect level. Might have been a semi-old bottle.

Dec 12, 2009 355 ml bottle. From København, Denmark.
Hazy orange/golden colour with tiny white head.
Hoppy and fruity aroma with some spices.
Hard massive hoppy flavour with grapefruit, resin, alcohol and fruits.
Bitter aftertaste, quite short though.
Alcohol strength quite recognisable. Not fresh but oppressive.

Dec 9, 2009 I laughed when I first smelled this beer. I had to pass it around to two other people to make sure I wasn’t just imagining things, but this beer smelled like straight marijuana. Although that particular smell did dissipate as I drank more, it was still funny. The taste was really good with grapefruit notes as the most notable taste. Definite hop kick and a smooth, bitter finish. Great beer
