| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Apr 4, 2009 A strong Ipa flavor, with sweet bubblegum coriander and a non-hop tasting causticness in addition to the great I2PA flavor. SaulusHumulus (47), Helsinki, Finland
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 2, 2009 Bottled. My bottle had leaked due to cork opening a little bit by rough contact with other bottles in the parcel on way to Finland. I tasted it straight away as I opened the parcel and realized what had happened. It was fine except that the bottle had lost all the carbonation making it kind of flat. Also, no foam formed while pooring. So it was a little bit real ale -like. Anyhow, pours copper-brownish. Aroma of exotic fruit, mango and pineapple, and slightly bitter hoppiness. Hoppy flavor is deliciously fruity and malty sweet. Hoppiness was kind of lame to me, maybe due to leaking. fallingleaves (15), Colorado, USA

Strong body witch may over bearing in its citrusy overtones coupled with a fine hoppy sensation. Carbonation was not to be expected. Overall, I might think about possibly drinking this beer in future, hopefully on tap instead. Adam77 (407), Eastampton, New Jersey, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 31, 2009 Another great IPA option from this brewery. Amber color. More pine flavors. Clean and crisp. TBone (6790), Pori, Finland

Clear amber-copper color, small white head. Strong aroma of pineapple and hops. Quite sweet and malty flavor with lots of pineapple and resiny notes. Some citrus in the finish too. Not really powerful for IIPA. And seems that I am not a fan of pineapple and hop combination -to me this looks a bit overrated here.
