Copper-orange pour into a snifter. The usual IIPA aroma. But the flavor is not that of an IIPA. Its not bad at all its very drinkable considering the Higher ABV. Very clean finish and very drinkable. And added point for the cool art work.

Dec 3, 2009 It poured a hazy golden liquid with a small white foam. Taste and smell of hops, and sweet malt and caramell. Very nice!

Dec 3, 2009 Bottle.
Nice and cloudy orange color. The foam was white and compact.
The aroma was sweet and wonderfully fruity, especially pineapple. Also some grass and raisins.
First sip was heavily bitter, the beer had glorious amounts of hops. Nice balance and smooth to drink. A lot of grapefruits and pineapple in the taste. Some nuts in the bitter aftertaste. The body was medium, good carbonation. Sympathetic beer.

Dec 2, 2009 Pours golden yellow with some haze...soapy white head that provides some drippy lacing. Heavy pine and citrus on the nose, but the flavor is very well balance and smooth as silk on the palate. Slight grapefruity lingering bitterness, but IMHO a dangerously delicious IIPA @ 9.4%. I’d seek this one out again for sure.

Nov 30, 2009 Bottle courtesy of DA from Fever. Grapefruit colored pour. Very sweet scent, fruity. Hoppy taste, but very boozy. Straw, hay, honey as well. Minimal finish, creamy for an IPA as well. The taste and smell is all up front, it goes down smooth. Good, but not as good as, say, Devil Dancer.

Nov 28, 2009 Medium sized offwhite head, retention is good, lacing is fair. Hazy amber gold appearence. Juicey hop nose, grapefruity, piney, ciyrusy fruitiness. Body is medium, lightly resiny, good carbonation. Hop forward, more citrusy goodness, light woodyness, fruity and juicey with some lightly sweet malt notes workin hard to balance out the large hop charge. Aggresive bitter fruity finish. A swell IIPA! Props to dmschefke for the bottle!

Nov 28, 2009 Bottled at Stockholm Beer Festival 2009. Hazy orange color. Juicy hop aroma with apricot and mango. Bittersweet flavor with juicy hops, tart fruitiness and some toffeish malt in the background. Hoppy mouthfeel. Very tasty, hoppy and drinkable.

Nov 27, 2009 Bottle. Hazy deep golden with a small head. Balanced citrus aroma with sweet notes and hints of raisins and bread. Solidly bitter flavours, but also rich raisins and citrus hops flavours. Hints of nuts. Almost like a barley wine. Great.

Nov 25, 2009 Bottle@Home. Fruity, grassy aroma. Light hazy, yellow colour, off-white firm head, good lace. Sweet start, very bitter and grassy finish. Little sticky, pretty dry hoppy finish. Balanced, good brew, too bitter and hoppy for me.
