Mar 31, 2009 Very strong grapefruit, floral and spice notes in the hop forward aroma with underlying toasted honey malt character. Lightly hazy copper body is topped by a decent, fine bubbled white head that recedes to a lasting cover. Strong bitterness is well supported by the underlying malt sweetness. Grapefruit and floral notes are plentiful with resinous pine especially in the long and hoppy after taste. Medium full body is offset by very crisp assertive carbonation that is lightly pointy on the tongue and cheeks. Tulip glass. Cellar temperature. Bottle purchased at Brewery Creek in Mar-09.

Mar 31, 2009 Bottle, at LCRBM 2008, ’s Hertogenbosch, Netherlands
Lightly hazy, quite clear body. Slightly off-white head. Great aroma of hops: amarillo, flowers, honey, ... Heavily bitter, lighly sweet flavour. Good balance. Quite 1 dimensional on the hops, but not exagerated.

Mar 30, 2009 Pours a hazy copper with a thin white head with decent retention. Heavenly oily & floral hop aroma - just stunning. Sharp oily & sudsy hops and a solid malt backbone, finish dries out nice and bitter with lingering floral notes. Great carbonation, crisp body. No complaints. Stellar IPA.

Mar 30, 2009 Hazy orange, dense white head with moderate retention and good lacing. Spectacular spicy, floral nose, flavour has a huge bittering hop character balanced by an initial caramel malt sweetness and very well hidden alcohol. Long bitter, peppery finish. Body is moderately creamy with light carbo.

Mar 29, 2009 hazy orange, medium off white head, some lace. nose of pine, citrus, caramel...maybe a touch of naughty monkey. flavor is a bit milder than the aroma would suggest. caramel backbone, with pine notes, hint of grapefruit. creamy mouthfeel, big bitter finish. a bit mild in the flavor department, and the alcohol is too well hidden. but everybody loves naughty monkeys so what the heck? bottle from family liquors in homewood.

Mar 28, 2009 bomber from marino’s in toledo. hazy orange pour with a solid white head and quite a bit of lacing. aroma of topical fruits, grass and pine. lightly toasted malts quickly give way to bitter citrus hops and an astringent grassy finish. medium syrupy body with a fair amount of carbonation. just your average ordinary fantastic california dipa.
