This has the same honeyed malt character you find in Anderson Valley Pal Ale and IPA. Thick and malty, really chewy, for the style. Hops are there in abundance, but it was the malt that was most memorable.

Dec 17, 2009 12 oz bottle from Bier Stein. Poured a deep amber with a thick white head and sticky lacing. Aroma of citrus hops, light caramel malt and some booziness. Tastes like citrus, booze, caramel. Pretty typical DIPA, nothing really jumps out at you from this one.

Dec 15, 2009 Pours a dark copper color with white head. Aroma is of sweet caramel malt and citrus fruit. Medium bodied. Taste is sweet citrus fruit and malt, could have definitely used more hops for a Double IPA.

Dec 11, 2009 bottle, pours hazy orange with a medium off white head. Aroma is all floral and citrus hops, and it’s very nice. Nice sweet malt and candy sugar balanced with a nice grapefruit hop finish that ends mild and dry. Nice and drinkable DIPA!

Dec 7, 2009 12 ounce bottle from Whole Foods Market, Charlottesville, VA. Pours a hazy copper color with a large frothy head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma of sticky citrus hops with a tropical and herbal finish. Taste is bitter citrus hops along with mango, melon and a resiny finish. Smooth, medium bodied. The bitterness lingers at the front of the tongue. Good beer.

Nov 26, 2009 Bottle into a pint glass. Mild aroma, hint of citrus. Pours cloudy orange, with small head and not much lacing. For a double IPA, it is not as hoppy as I thought it would be. Really nice feel in the mouth and well balanced mix of hops and malty finish. Really liked this one.

Nov 12, 2009 12 oz bottle - pours an opaque orange with very little head - very minimal lacing - a boatload of particles floating throughout the brew that gradually stetle at the bottom - Citrus hops in the aroma - Bitter on the palate but the malts balance it out very nicely - overall this a very nice brew!

Oct 30, 2009 Bottle. Cloudy orange hue with a whispy layer of spotty head. Nose is modest citrus hops with bready malts and slight alcohol. Flavor is surprisingly thick with bread-grain malt, modest hop bitterness and citrus-to-pine hop flavor dominate in the middle, slight grassy tones, finishes slightly sweet with alcohol warmth. Medium-full body, thick texture, modest carbonation. A balanced DIPA that is full and malty, hops are there but not at the typical DIPA level.
