Joeh (1892), Buckinghamshire, England Feb 15, 2008 Bottle. A copper coloured ipa with a thick offwhite head. Fantastic aroma of piney hops, a bit spirity. Flavour is dominated by hops, quite over the top bitterness, and not enough malt to balance it out, everything is drowned out by the crude bitterness.
afireinside96 (390), Mountville, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 20, 2008 Hazy orange-amber body topped by wispy white head. Smells strongly of my favorite hop, Amarillo, big grapefruit, citrus smell. Taste is much the same, fresh and juicy, some caramel and alcohol warmth are also noted. Smooth lasting bitterness accompanies the flavor. Great stuff. gameface23 (77), Haverhill, Massachusetts, USA Aug 18, 2008 Hazy orange with a great looking head that leaves impressive lacing on the glass. Aroma of hops with a well rounded taste, great mouthfeel, and finish that is pure flavor without the bitterness. Great beer! Linnet (3), , Sweden does not count Aug 18, 2008 very nice aroma and appearence. The flavour was very intense. This was my first double IPA and it left me wanting for more. jonno (151), Japan Aug 18, 2008 A great hoppy smack to the chops. Very enjoyable in that american hops overkill way. could do with a bit more balance, but one to reach for in the cooler months fezzik20 (4), USA does not count Aug 17, 2008 After one beer, this vaults into my top 3 very easily. Reminiscent of/cross between Dogfish’s 90 Min IPA and a Stone Double Bastard, it is very balanced, yet very hoppy. You’d never know it was 9.1% alcohol. Do yourself a favor and pick up a 4 pack.
