| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 27, 2008 750 ml. brown champange style bottle. No freshness date seen.Poured out a hazy orange color, with a sticky tan head. Aromas are of sweet malts, grapefruit hops, and not much else.
Flavors are of grapefruit hops, mostly. Some malts sneak in for a brief appearance. Thin body, even thinner mouthfeel. Burning alcohol at the end. Not the best double IPA I ever had. yngwie (4970), Kristiansand, Norway

Pours an orange-golden, hazy body with a dense, medium-sized, off-white head. The aroma is nice, but maybe a bit sweetish, with beef-stock, resin and pine. Sweet, resiny and piney flavor with beef-stock, some alcohol and a lovely bitterness. Full body, and a long, fruity and bitter finish. A wonderful combo of hops and malt. (071228)
