| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 9, 2009 12 oz can, love the can. Pours a deep amber with a tan foamy head with some lacing. Aroma is sweet citrus, pine and a good amount of caramel malt. The flavor is sweet then slowly fades to a bitterness. The body is the heavier side of medium with a mild carbonation and a somewhat syrupy mouth feel. Overall this is a pretty well balanced IIPA, just a tad on the sweet side. cprochak (420), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 8, 2009 On tap at the Tasty Weasel in Longmont on 7/16/09. Pours a great orange with a little off white head. Awesome pine and citrus hops aroma with a little vanilla undertones. Very well balanced sweet/bitter double IPA with a long lingering bitter finish. gdut (4), Pennsylvania, USA does not count | 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 7, 2009 Pours a robust, sitcky orangish/red. Somewhat fruity nose, but it disappears quickly. Rather sweet at first tastet. Dry-hopped and it shows in the finish. Overall the balance is unbelievable, the flavor powerful and tangy. A true gem and not just because the first time I had it was in the back seat of a car. I’ve had it several times since and it brings it. drseusszb200 (212), Florida, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 3, 2009 copper, thin offwhite head.
thick musky hop aroma.
very smooth texture and balanced flavor, though a bit mild. there’s tons of caramel, it’s like candied hops.
medium-thin body and very light carbonation.
this is good, but not great. gsmitty80 (646), Washington DC, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Aug 2, 2009 This is by far one of the most flavorful and power packed IPA’s out there. Drink a few of these and consider yourself a man. WesKBob (321), Bethany, Oklahoma, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 15/20 | Jul 30, 2009 Pours a hazy orange with a thin off-white head. Strong aroma of grapefruit and apricot. Flavor is tropical fruits up front that is quickly overtaken by piney hop bitterness. Dry, biting mouthfeel. A decent IPA but a little overrated IMHO.
