Dec 20, 2008 22 oz bottle. Burnt orange in color with creamy off white head. Nose is syrupy alcohol sweet. Thick. Flavor is same. Big fruity sweet to thick and gooey to sharp and bitter. Sticks like glue to the back of my throat. Sweet bitter just hangs out in your mouth forever. Had to rerate. This got great when it warmed up. Caramel, vanilla, smooth. Yummy.

Dec 10, 2008 Pours a very nice dark orange/amber color with minimal off white head, which quickly dissipates. Smells of alcohol, malt, and citrus hops. Taste of strong hops with great malt character. Some alcohol taste. Very good. A very unique IPA.

Dec 4, 2008 Pours out of the bottle a deep red with a hint of burnt orange. Has a medium white head that has very large bubbles in the middle. Aroma of caramel, spice, a little citrus from the hops, a touch of alcohol comes through on the nose as well, a few vegital notes, floral notes also. Palate is heavy, sticky... almost chewy, little carbination and cloying quality. The first thind I notice taste wise is the sweetness and then the bitter hops coming through. Very sweet to start, caramel and rye come through, bitter citrus, bitter, then a sweet vegital and rye bread finnish. Interesting... really not my thing though.

Nov 26, 2008 Bottle. Pours orange amber with a dense and lasting off white head. The aroma is sweet and hoppy with light citric notes. The flavor is well balanced with sweet bready, almost toasty malt, along with some hoppy sweetness and grass. Not bad.

Nov 1, 2008 Pretty good, more along the lines of a barley wine i thought. had the bitterness, but not the hop character. It was good, but not sure it confined to the iipa category. Malty.
