Forget that it has a nice straw coloured head, forget that it is a clear pale amber, you will never forget the nose of this brew. Very floral hop aroma that should be in a spray so that we could smell it any time. Clean refreshing taste with emphasis on the hops. Long bitter finish that makes me anticipate the next sip. Thanks Mitch for my hop addiction!

Bottle. Great clear golden pour with nice foamy off white head. Aroma is grassy hops, but also big time tropical fruits. Excellent nose! I could smell this for hours. Flavor is strong astringency up front, followed by the nice taste of bitter hops, with some pine and hints of citrus. Nice syrupy mouth feel.

22 oz bottle. Clear orange/gold with a smallish light orange tinted head. Resinous hop aroma with citrus, caramel, and pine. The bitterness really comes through in this, there is some sweetness but it never really gets a chance to surface too much. You can taste the alcohol but it isn’t too strong or overpowering, at 9.2% I would be surprised not to taste it. Slightly syrupy mouth feel but it finishes long and dry. This is a great IIPA, it doesn’t let the big malt base take over and really focuses on the hop.

Bottle. Pours deep amber coloured with a thick and creamy off white head. Lots of malts and hops in the aroma. Notes of grapefruit, pine, caramel, dried fruit, lemons and peach. Powerfull yet balanced flavour with notes of bread, caramel, resin, peach/apricot, orange fruit and grass. Really great stuff! Amazing brew.

Pours dark amber orange w/some clouding that disipates quickly. Smells of fresh cut grass. The first taste is crisp and clean and then the hops hit you. This beer is awesome. It is everything that it claims to be, it is a truely awesome brew. Cheers!

Bottle. Pour was deep golden with a lasting of-white head. Aroma was very fresh with a lot of citrus and bitterness. Flavors were well blended between the hops and the light malt character. Very easy to drink and quite refreshing. The alcohol hit me pretty quickly but again was pleasant. Very good brew.

Happy and hoppy, this beer is for sippin’. I enjoyed this for a while, but don’t hold it too long and let it get too warm or it will become a little too bitter.
