The aroma is sweet and very hoppy, but also with some off-notes like detergent. The flavor is sweet hoppy with notes of prunes and loads of hay, leading to a dry hoppy end. argo0 (6948), Washington DC, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 9, 2004 Tap@The Pilsner Room, Portland. A great 2IPA. Pretty full on thick and sweet. Very hoppy, piney, grapefruity, also a bit woody and i got a fair hit of vanilla in there, which was a bit odd, suffers a little for being a bit one dimentional, but it was still very nice. ¾ (4999), Colorado, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 15, 2004 Sampled @ Full Sail Pilsner Room, Portland, July 2004. Dark red color, very fresh hop nose which isn’t overpowering, sweet orange and caramel hop flavor. Not a bad bitterness, not too much, very even and fair for the not-so-ultra-hophead. Cherries, sweet caramel malts... pretty tasty, though not explosive. BückDich (4853), McCall, Idaho, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 7, 2004 Tap @ Horse Brass Pub in Portland Amber ruby hue with a light flim of head and some sticky oily lacing. Very perfumey with some delicious C hops; grapefruit and hop resin. The flavor has a good amount of bitterness but is balanced by the moderate alcohol content. Lots of PNW hops going on here, I really want to try this on cask. Finishes with some more hops and oak, not too dry but not too sweet like some of these stronger IPAs. Smooth mouthfeel, very good. motelpogo (4394), Plzen, Czech Republic

A medium bodied imperial IPA. Malts are fruity and caramel. Hops are grapefruity and juicy. Big hop flavors are nicely balanced by a surprising large malt backbone. Nice beer. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly bitter. Braudog (3770), Dayton, Ohio, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jun 2, 2004 Described as "so hoppy"!? Not. Light and vaguely fruity, but really not much more than an average American pale ale with hardly any flavor.
