| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 30, 2008 12oz bottle - 8.3% alc. Maximus. The name says it all. So much malt combined with even more hops. In the end, it creates a slightly thick and sticky, but amazingly enjoyable DIPA. Going down, the malt initially win the battle until, shortly thereafter, the hops perform a covert sneak-attack on the palate. This beer is definitely one to check out. I heard the Maximus in the bomber is not as good, if it wasn’t for the case of 12ozers in my basement, I’d like to pick one up for comparison. Overall: WOW! I don’t care if its 11 in the morning, I can’t wait!
