Big piney nose that is extremely inviting. Taste is all hops with nice citrus and grassy flavor. A hopheads dream. Excellent brew!! Crosling (1856), Loveland, Colorado, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Oct 3, 2005 Brick colored liquid. Unbelievably big, sprucey and floral hop aroma, with huge resins, pine and wet forest. Just a monstrous hop aroma. Insanely big body and texture, with a creamy and sticky texture. Caramel and toffee malt flavors in a big fashion, with a perfect hop bill, giving the perfect amount of bitterness and flavor. Perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness, hop flavor and malt flavors. Totally RAW and awesome. bombshelter (349), Washington, Washington DC, USA

Bottle from WF. aroma is herbal, grassy hops. pours a cloudy amber, pretty decent co2. there is a hint of malt in front but it is quickly overwhelmed by a full assault of hops. citric, a touch of pine, all sorts of green grass, just delicious. fantastic brew, hides the 9.2% very well.

Flaove is extreme citrus hops, so awesome I can’t believe, this is great beer. tomhenderson (129), Charlotte, North Carolina, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 10/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | May 17, 2008 22 oz bomber. Bottle conditioned with lots of sediment. Surprisingly lighter than most IIPAs, the color is light amber with a low but persistent head throughout consumption. The aroma was light but cascade and simcoe (citrus) comes through prominently. Low malt aroma. Flavor is very nicely balanced between sweet caramel and Biscuit and/or Victory malts, and earthy hops like Chinook and Columbus. Creamy mouthfeel with some alcoholic warmth without being "hot." An incredibly well made IIPA!

Great aroma of freshly squeezed grapefruit juice. The flavor is of apricot.......And at the end comes the beatiful hops with long, long finish. One of the best so far...

| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | May 14, 2006 A "that’s what I’m talkin’ about" smell of hops, raspberries and fun. A dark amber hazy look with a healthy head. A tast that would justify Ben Franklin’s quote about beer. An aftertaste that know’s when its a good time to leave. An epic I2PA. sliffy (2012), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Nov 2, 2006 Bottle thanks to footbalm: Amber color with a medium off white head, some lacing. Aroma, citrus, pine and caramel, big big hops. Could smell them a foot away from the glass. Flavor, more citrus and pine, oozing hops, but a nice malty backbone, great bitterness on the finish, but not overwhelming, there’s some sweetness in there as well. It was a pleasure to drown in this bomber.
