tagz (283), USA Jul 1, 2008 bottle. piney hops. dark crystal lends an unpleasant dark fruit/prune flavor. alcohol edge. didn’t like this one. ahboo. adrian910ss (958), philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 25, 2008 On draft at Capone’s. Pours a dark orange/brown with a medium white head. Aroma of grassy hops and light pine. Taste of grassy notes, light pine and faint citrus. heemer77 (3536), North Liberty, Iowa, USA Jun 17, 2008 Thanks to xnoxhatex for sharing. The body was dark gold with a white colored head. At first you get the obvious grapefruit. Then, behind that, there is a little bit of funk and apples. The taste was straight ahead grapefruit with some almonds. A fairly dry finish. xnoxhatex (746), Chicago, Illinois, USA Jun 16, 2008 12oz bottle from homebrew mystery swap. Clear amber with small white head. Aroma is fruity hoppy, a little caramel, a little dough, a lot of citrus hops, some pine, pretty enjoyable. Citrus flavor resin hops with some pine and caramel and dough, grass, all around pretty nice. Medium body and a little syrupy, but not bad. Overall a very a nicebeer but a little bit too aged. Sammy (2939), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jun 1, 2008 330 ml. found at Premiere Gourmet.A hoppy beer, was not sure what hops used, but leafy taste. Even a tad of wintermint. Not a bad double IPA, short of being a hop bomb and well malted. Just very hoppy.Carbonation was a bit high, this would be interesting on cask. bee-aye #2901.
