Bottle. Pours a hazy orange with a big off-white head. Sweet, malty aroma with notes of rye and wood and a berry-like note in the background– a bit cloying. Hops in the background as it warms. Flavour is sweet and malty with notes of dark fruits and rye. Not a lot of hops. Same finish, but also bitter. Slight notes of alcohol. Overall too cloying and not hoppy enough for my liking. The high alcohol % was well-hidden though. 08-11-09.

Jan 3, 2010 Bright neon orange color with a medium white head that settles quickly to a thin layer; fine lacing...and LEGS!
Aroma of citrus, cloves, malt and fresh bread.
Flavor begins slowly, with light malt and yeast, then orange peel; then the bitterness builds, and builds. Finish is dry enough to suck your cheeks in.
Great body, on the meaty and chewy side.
10.10! Shocking. What an IPA. What an IPA!

Dec 17, 2009 A lovely, easy-drinking DIPA for the strength and bitterness. This would be a regular if I had the cash and access. A very good-looking beer - labrador-gold with a head that wouldn’t shame a beauty queen. Fruity aroma of pink grapefruit and mango. Slick palate and quite chewy - definitely at the meatier end of the scale. Clean and hoppy in the mouth - Simcoe, Amarillo and Tomahawk. Juicy Fruit chewing gum and some real grapefruit zestiness before a big warming finish. Champion stuff.

Dec 14, 2009 Golden with a low head. Citric aroma with notes of brown sugar and pine. Cloying, thick and and full-bodied. Very sweet to begin with, but with an aggressive hoppy ending. A bit much in the long run.

Dec 14, 2009 courtesy of Jespr - pours a cloudy orange colour with a huge foamy pale beige head; solid hoppy aroma of quince, lichies, fresh cream and dust; sweet malt backbone, full-bodied and juicy, tasty palate, fairly bitter with a long fruity, almondy and yeasty finish - the alcohol remains well hidden and this males it dangerously drinkable

Dec 2, 2009 Bottled, thanks fiulijn! Hazy golden, rich airy head. Yeasty gooseberry aroma. Sweet with medium-full body. Syrupy with lots of grapefruity hops. Too sweet and with inky late bitterness.
