Apr 27, 2009 Getting Hop Stoopid with the guys is a good thing. Enjoyed at the tasting with the King of Hops drbayern, the kilted Prince celticbrew, Uncles Steve and Tom, our new Beer Pimp Brian and Dancing Paul. Pours into the glass a dark yellow. A really nice hoppy aroma prevales. The hops were very well balanced, with a great bittering finish!

Apr 27, 2009 Had this in a small lidded stein. Slight hazy amber orange with a decent foam head. Hops and citrus/pine on the nose with a good malt balance through the pallet. What kept me interested was the well balance body, not too hop heavy or citrus infused, the grain smoothness-a good drinker.

Apr 27, 2009 Updated: Jun 13, 2009Bottle. Pored a slightly hazy golden color with a thin eggshell head. Very nice IPA, not sure if I would call it an IIPA but still very good. Excellent hop profile and very balanced much more so than say a Maharaja. Yum.

Apr 26, 2009 Bomber via Stefanje. I bow low to you sir for this gem. Piney yet fruity nose. A glorious clear as a bell amber in the tall glass. Head is bright but ephemeral. Some lacing but not a bunch. Body is medium and chock full of hops but not i an overpowering fashion. caramel malts balance it all out. Motre fruit appears near the finsiha dnthru it. A fine beer that was enjoyed on my porch overlooking my small hop farm. Woo Hoo for Stefanje!

Apr 26, 2009 22oz bomber served in a tulip. This beer poured a golden amber with a one-finger thick head of beige foam that quickly settled. Some spotty lacing was left around the glass. The aroma included grapefruit and strong orange. Also some light caramel. Not quite as fragrent as I was hoping. The flavor was very nice. Not quite a 9, but maybe a bit better than an 8. Tropical fruit, pine, and an abundance of fresh grapefruit notes. Piney and herbal. A lingering bitterness continued after each drink. Very nice. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied and had light to moderate carbonation. A solid IPA.

Apr 25, 2009 bottle poured a golden color with a big fluffy white head that laced the glass well. aroma has pine, citrus, sweetness, and resin. has a sharp fresh nose. mouth feel is medium and coats well with hefty carbonation. flavor has plenty of hop flavors(citrus, pine, grapefruit, and bitterness), balancing sweetness, and enough malt to stand up to this. the beer is big and hopped but not overly bitter. has a nice lingering finish.
