22oz bottle. Poured a medium amberish color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of pine, some citrus, and some floral hoppiness. Tastes of citrus, pine, and some toasted caramel. Lighter alcohol in the finish.

Has a clear red-copper pour with tints of orange and covered with an off-white and some ale colored head, there is medium effervescence maybe a little more lively, and left lots of creamy lacings on the glass, I got an aroma of hops as I pop the cap, aroma of citrus, flower and piney hops along with light toasted malt and orange fruit sweetness with the pour, flavors of grassy and citrus hops with toasted malt and orange-peach fruit, hop bite is not as big as the nose proposes, faint alcohol taste as the ale warms, alcohol did not ruin the experience, mouth feel is medium maybe a little more, and a little alcohol warmth on the palate, this was ok.

Aroma was some citrus, light pineapple, and bready malts although not very hoppy overall. Flavor was bitter, astringent, alcohol, with some hop oily feeling on the tongue. Pretty sweet overall. I would like it a little drier. Not bad but not a standout IIPA at all.

Aroma is very well balanced. Malty, pine and citrus hops, and perhaps a bit farty and kool-aid sweet. Taste is pine, citrus hops, and tons of residual sugar, left over gravity; malt. This is a sweet beer. Not my style of DIPA at all, but the flavors are not bad and there are not any glaring flaws. Finish is slightly astringent and sour with a hop bitterness that lingers. Okay.

Bomber: Aroma has got a nice hoppiness to it, citrus, a bit of pine needles, and a rally nice floral note. Appearance is a light amber with a medium sized off white head that lingers around for quite a while. Taste has got a nice citrus hop texture (really fruity), and some light malts in the backing. Palate is bitter hops on the tongue at first thenand lingering hop texture that stays in the mouth for quite a while. Overall, decent Impy IPA not blowing me away, but I would get it again if it were cheaper. Cheers!

tap at Jerry’s.... pours a medium caramel brown with a thin light beige head....citrus hop aroma....flavors had a lot of caramel malt upfront combines with an abundance of piney hope that leaves way for a pretty astringent finish. not my style of dipa but alright nonetheless.

Pours an amber color with an off-white head. Flavor is malty with a decent blend of citrus hops. Flavor is pretty hoppy with the citrus malts but has the malty character up front. Nice balance.

Draft at Jerry’s. Amber with big, foamy beige head / Nose of brown sugar, dry hops, and citrus / Medium body, sweet & chewy, with big malts eclipsing the biting hops on the slightly hot finish / Flavors of brown sugar, cut pine, grapefruit, chalk, and violets / A big, malty 2ipa. Very nice.
