Jun 8, 2009 Bottle shared at the 6th Cellar Reduction. Last of the night, thank god. But this was such a good one to finish on. Pours a clear orange with decent near white head. Magnificent sweet pine pineapple aroma, with some cat piss, and grapefruit. Lingering bitterness, but some sweetness present. This is amazing. But not hopstoopid.

Feb 27, 2006 Updated: Jan 9, 2007Bottles courtesy of the Hood_River_Bandit and Pailhead. Hazy copper with huge off-white head. Best lacing I’ve seen in a long time, completely coats the glass. Huge head re-forms after tiny swirl. Huge piney hop resin aroma with plenty of caramel in the background. Flavor has a nice sweet malt kick up front, before the hop bitters completely take over. Huge pine resin and grapefruit. Well balanced. Overall a very nice IIPA.

Oct 27, 2007 Poured from tap at Stone. Wow, what an incredible head of 1 finger of lingering microfoam. Dark slightly-cloudy amber color. Medium hop aroma and bitterness. Sweet and malty. It almost tastes aged with a tiny bit of oxidation and mellowed hop bitterness. Heavy body. Very good.

Apr 16, 2008 Bomber. Pours a hazy amber with a 2 finger off-white head. Nose pine resin and sour citrus. Palate – man, I think this is the hoppiest beer I’ve had to date. Hit you over the head intense pine hops and sour yellow grapefruit. Not much malt detected – it’s starting to give me a bit of heartburn it’s so hoppy – but I like it! Long lingering bitter finish. Medium body with splotchy lacing. It’s pretty unbalanced, but it certianly lives up to its name. A very intense IIPA.
