Nov 18, 2008 Can from New Beer Distributors, NYC.
Fruity aroma.
Sweet and spicy. Cinnamon, mint, black cherries. Somehow balanced by bitterness to avoid being cloying. Lovely.

Nov 1, 2008 On tap. Pours a deep amber with a finger of white head. Aroma is coniferous hops and sweet malt. Flavor is coniferous, sweet malt, maple, citric, and a slightly bitter resinous finish. Very nice. Carbonation is good but not overpowering. Palate isn’t adverse and alcohol is well hidden. Good beer.

Oct 29, 2008 Pours a amber/dark cooper. Nice pine and citrus hop aroma. Good bitterness, but at the same time it was also a little sweet and incredibly easy to drink. Very little carbonization. I do like Imperial IPAs coming from a can. Thanks for the brew BOLTZ7555.

Oct 28, 2008 Can. Poured into a snifter, beautiful amber color, good head. Good aroma of pine and citrus hops. Taste is a well balanced DIPA. Nice sweet piney hop taste with malt in the aftertaste. The texture is creamy/smooth and very easy to drink. For sure it is one of the better DIPA out there.

Oct 26, 2008 Can. Pours foggy orange amber with a beige head. The aroma has grassy and floral hops with caramel malt. The flavor is well balanced with sweeter malt, floral hops, and some light fruity esters, followed by a nice bitter finish. Nice.

Oct 23, 2008 Really enjoyed Gordon. Lots of hops but what I liked was its malt character. Had lots of cramel and roasted flavors. Also has sort of a baked bread character. Very good.

Oct 19, 2008 Hoppy as hell. Darkish red color. Citrusy hint in the aroma. Very evergreen . Does not taste like it as 8.7 abv. Smooth and creamy. Very nice.

Oct 17, 2008 Can pours dark red-amber with thick and almost creamy beige head. Resinous, dank-hoppy mellows after a bit, heading toward pine needles and fruit punch. Intensely juicy hop aroma. Tastes like America! Sweet but only moderately bitter. Soft carbonation, somewhat thick and almost creamy mouthfeel. A bit sticky. Sweetish, tangy and hoppy aftertaste. More refreshing for its strength than it has any right to be.
