Dec 27, 2009 Bottle. Pours an orange body with an off white head. Nice pine y hop tones, with some underlying citrus. Still a pretty big malt bill with some caramel warming and finishing a bit sweet. Lighter floral notes with some hop resins. A nice dipa.

Dec 22, 2009 Bomber from 2008. Pours copper in color, very hazy, with a small but thick eggshell-colored head. Aromas of citrus, pine, and butter; as it warms, grapefruit peel becomes apparent as well. Taste is caramel malt, resinous hops, and a slight bitterness. This is a sweeter take on an IIPA, but it’s really pretty nice. Thick, creamy mouthfeel with warming alcohol. I really enjoyed this, a very nice surprise. Thanks Danker!

Dec 5, 2009 Pours a cloudy copper/orange. Mostly diminishing creamy off-white head, excellent lacing. The aroma is hoppy with some maltiness in the background. The hoppiness is pine and citrus. The maltiness is kinda a light sweet bread. The taste is a light bitter, creamy and a slight caramel presence. The body is medium and the carbonation average.

Nov 11, 2009 Clear medium amber color with light-bodied eggshell colored head. Decent retention and very good lacing.
Smells very tasty. Nice big hoppiness. Pine resin and citrus notes. Pineapple and spiceiness. Light kiss of malty sweetness.
Wow. This is a very nicely balanced double IPA. Good level of sweet malt flavors in the front. Nice piney, citrusy hops flavor in the middle. Spicey Rye wraps it up with a nice bite at the end. There is an underlying buttery caramel pineapple flavor throughout.
Nice creamy mouthfeel. A little light in the body for my tastes, in general. Although, for an IPA it’s pretty dead on, right where it should be.
Even at 9% ABV, this is one freakin’ tasty and highly drinkable beer. The alcohol is practically undetectable on the tongue.
IMO, this is a truly exceptional offering from a great brewery.
Thank you Left Hand!

Oct 23, 2009 Dark golden pour from bottle. Plenty of hoppy bitterness. Decent IPA, however, for a less costly Left Hand IPA go with Warrior.

Oct 21, 2009 sample at The 2009 Great Decatur Beer Festival on 10/17/09... pours a dark golden... big hop and malt driven aroma... medium body with a balanced amount of hops and malts... this is less hop forward than most IIPAs... feels a bit average, but still tasty.
