| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | May 31, 2009 Can. Bit hazy amber body. Medium creamy white head. Wonderfull grassy aroma with lots of pine and earthy notes backed up by a great malt base. Flavour is very fruity and dry with pine, citrus, peach and caramel notes. Great variation of hops in this brew. I loved it. beerchugger (297), Colorado, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 28, 2009 Deep amber color with a thin, yet dense head. Smells of wonderful citrusy hops! Other notes of earth and pine are also noticeable. The flavor has loads of pine and tremendous sweet grapefruit to it. However, the flavor is a little subdued and it doesn’t have that typical DIPA punch. Still, a very delicious beer. dmschefke (371), Eastpointe, Michigan, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 21, 2009 Thanks lb4lb for this. Pours a deep amber orange with thick off-white head. Aroma of is a bit more balanced than most IIPAs, but obvious of citrus and floral hops, strong malt, and grass. Flavor matches, but just doesn’t have that oomph you would be looking for from an IIPA. spikester (602), Salem, Oregon, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 17, 2009 Pours dark amber with a modest off white head and a good amount of lacings. Aroma is malty and a good amount of hops. Taste is very bitter leathery fruity hops with a very large amount of sweet candy like malts. I would have pegged this as a big red ale. Not in the same league as many of the super impy / double IPAs. Decent beer but reminds me some of their Old Chub with more hops. The amount of sweet malts hides the 8.7% abv quite well. Worth a taste and I did enjoy it. IndianaRed (1555), Boise, Idaho, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 16, 2009 Can Deep mahogany with a huge dense light tan head. Big aroma of sweet, carmel malts and thick hoppy goodness. Sweeter and heavy than an IPA, or a double even, but not as bitter either. The hop flavore is woody and heavy, not bright and crisp like a west coast IPA. Lingering thick malty palate as well.
Good stuff. mesperon (139), Jersey City, New Jersey, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | May 15, 2009 Clear copper with thin head, and nice lace. Woodsy hope aroma. Twangy bite to start, bitter orange, and a little, followed by woodsy, grassy bitter finish. Sweetness of the malt lingers a little. A lot going on with this beer, very interesting.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | May 12, 2009 12 oz can from Bier Stein. Pours out a nice amber color with a solid beige top that fades quickly leaving almost no lacing. Very nice balance between citrus, floral and light pine hops and a sweet caramel malt finish. Very easy drinking especially for the abv. TampaBrew (825), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | May 10, 2009 Pours a deep amber. Nose is floral citrus hop bomb. Full flavored malt and hop balance. Hides 8.7% well.
