"ok, this one is right up there with Ruination. Different, thicker mouthfeel...tastes fresher, like a hop altoid. if that sounds good to you, try this one. too bad it’s only in 22’s. the only drawback is the escalating price...Stone’s imperial is just is good for way less."

22 oz. bottle, shared with Gabe. Pours a medium off white head of good duration....nose is of mild to medium hop with some pine, some resin.....tastes of mild malts then in comes the hop with heavy citrus tones, and long lingering bitterness....mouth feel is rich and chewy....this is somewhat unbalanced. I’d decrease the Simcoe, and maybe kick up crystal malts.

Bottle from acknud, the hopmaster. pours an orange color with a nice white head. Aroma is full of citrus, floral and pine hops. There is some nice malt and honey notes in the nose as well as some tropical fruit. Flavor is very, very hoppy. Citrus and pine hops hit the tongue followed by a nice smooth delivery of malt. Very, very well done. Hop heads will approve!

bomber from Marino’s in toledo. brought back in my luggage from Christmas trip. hazy orange pour with big off white head. strong aroma of pine and spicy hops. bitter hop bite throughout in the taste. balanced out with sweet malts. the hops are definitely the focus here. dry salty finish that sticks around a while. smooth medium texture. alcohol shows as it warms. hoptastic.

Picked this one up on a short trek through a blizzard: Big bomb in a huge glass- beautiful colour- bright, clear orange that illuminates with a two finger sized creamy white head. Suprisinigly dissipates leaving a nice patch of froth along the top. Scattered lacing around the glass, creamy too- not sticky. Aroma is dank, piney, green tea, fresh cut grass and wet hops. Taste is chewy, full and astringent- definately makes you a bit thirsty for more. Either way, very fresh and clean to the finish. Wicked tastey :)

Pour is a hazy orange with a small white head. Aroma is a nice pine hops with a little white grape in there. Flavor is a an intense hop wih everything your looking for. Pine, citrus and sweet malts are there to round everything out. A very tasty and well made beer that is super easy to drink.

Enjoyed on Valentines night. Orange amber with gooey solid lace. Sharp hoppy nose hiding some nice sweetness. Taste is sweet hops with a little nice bitterness. Also a nice smooth creaminess underneath all of it. Nice one.
