Very hoppy aroma with some hints of grapefruits. Sweet malty flavor with lots of hops and hints of grapefruits. Leaves you with a long bitter aftertaste. henrikb (1305), Aarhus, Denmark
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 4, 2006 Almost no head, what there is, is big bubbled and white on a very unclear amber body; Dry hop juicy nose, it lacks depth and complexity: dough, warm flowers; Quite sweet body, with lots of fill and to little carbonation; Long slow starting finish (it never completely gets going), again way sweet, with a dry hoppy character: flowers, drying grass and quite some pine.

A very hoppy, cloudy, hoppy yes hoppy Imperial IPA. But a very pleasant taste, malty caramel. A long not brutal bitter finish. A very nice taste. MiP (9160), Sønderborg, Denmark
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 1, 2006 Draught. Very nice, hoppy aroma. Cloudy orange colour, almost no head. The flavour is also very nice and hoppy, and quite peppery. Nice mouthfeel, alcohol seems quite present. mds (2112), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 31, 2006 Draught. Hazy orange-brown with a white head. The aroma is screaming of hops...crazy, really. Grapefruit, alcohol, yeasty, and some sweetness. It sure is bitter but it somehow remains manageable. Kind of a soapy and caramel underpinning and the finish lingers with a resiny presence. An excellent creation, Christian! Sampled at the Ølfabrikken Brewday on May 19, 2006. jbrus (4903), Delft, Netherlands
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 31, 2006 Bottled. Aroma of sweet malts and quite floral. Hazy, amber color, off-white head, few lace. Very sweet, very herbal, roses and very malty as well. Alcoholic and warming. Flavors last forever. Nice but overall seems just less complex and more alcohol but based on their Pale Ale.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 30, 2006 Cloudy amber colour with a small thin off white head. Malty, caramel sweet aroma with a hoppy pineapple fruityness. Malty and sweet flavor with a hoppy fruity note. JorisPPattyn (5192), Antwerpen, Belgium
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 27, 2006 Little head over hazy, reddish-orange beer. Dry hopsacks, rosewater, dry straw, rosehips, sweet nose, strangely. Rather sweet initial impression. Hoppiness is very outspoken, but it is more mouthfeel thing, a puckering rather than a taste, let alone bitterness. Very thick, round MF, dry, tart aftertaste. I’m not quite convinced - there’s some laudable attempt at balance, but it seems to go in all directions instead of blending. Then, it has to be said that it was tasted in less than optimal circumstances - thanks to Martin E and his companion, all the same!
