Oct 17, 2007 Updated: Jun 30, 2008This beer made me dream of apricot fields with the bitter aftertaste of being hit by grapefruits and oranges. This beer also made me feel weird, like I was in a Snoop Dogg video. Loved the hops

Oct 15, 2007 Very easy drinking DIPA for 9%. Tons of hops in the aroma, but fairly balanced for a ultra hopped IPA. One of the better IPA i have tried, not overally sweet either. This just took the Gold at GABF as well.

Oct 10, 2007 Bomber. Deep hazy orange with small white head. Super hops on the nose...but mixed with nice aromas of grapefruit, pine and apricots. Just add the great malt balance and you’ve got this great beer...I love it.

Oct 9, 2007 Nice slightly hazy deep amber coloured body with a very thin and fast-fading tan head. Aroma of fresh apricots, malt, honey, lemons, flowers and of course - HOPS! Full-bodied; Strong malt flavour up front with alcohol and yeast noticeable...then fading to a citrus and piney hop flavour that is unrelentless. After the mouth is puckered from the hops - the sweetness sort of settles on the palate and the piney flavours really come out! Overall, a good Imperial IPA, a bit strong and rough to be drinking all of the time - but good once in a while. I don’t understand how most peole can drink these in 65 cL bottles, but it is a good purchase! I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Norm’s in Vienna, Virginia on 09-October-2007.

Oct 8, 2007 Hopheads dream. Good hop combo, really does taste like sucking on hop popscicle. Very floral. This beer kicks major ass and should be rated way higher way better than Ruination or 90minute

Oct 7, 2007 Honey amber color with a medium light offwhite head. Smell is huge pine and soapy hops. Very aromatic and nice. Taste is wow, bitter.... Very piney, hoppy, and unbalanced to say the least. Not enough sweetness to make this pleasant or enjoyable at all. Too much hops for the malt used, and although the alcohol is very nicely hidden, this isn’t very drinkable or pleasant. Chalky dry, intense bitterness. ugh...

Aroma – IPA aroma with strong hops and spices
Appearance – Amber in color was slightly hazy. I am sure from the over powering hops used.
Flavor – Huge Hops flavor. This was a IPA for the NW people. This will eat your teeth and then more. This was a great IPA with a very strong flavor with good spices also
Palate – This was a full flavored beer that gave your mouth a huge amount to taste. This was a great beer to taste
Overall –This was a great IPA with huge flavors. A big beer for the bys to sink there hops fetish into. Here you IPA fans drink up see you next summer.
