Oct 2, 2005 Orange/amber color. Very hoppy aroma, but there is also a balance with fruity notes from peach, apples and citrus. Extremely hoppy flavor, grassy and dry, but also with some fruits showing. Very nice.

Mar 9, 2007 Bottle courtesy of 11026. Vintage 2006. Pours a clear sparkling amber-orange with an average size lasting beige head. Aroma: Oh yeah that’s nice! Lots of Cascade hops (possibly my fave hop) nicely backed by sweet malt and fruit -- Interestingly the aroma changes slightly each time I smell it, one minute it’s mild the next it isn’t. Delicious flavour starts off nice and juicy with citrusy and floral hops followed by just enough sweet malt and a big bitter finish -- all very well balanced. Alcohol’s totally hidden. Great body. Simply an awesome IPA -- more please!!

Jul 2, 2009 Lovely piney nose, some oil, citrus.
First class IPA. Tons of hops explode in the mouth. Sweet malt uenderneath, but the hops win the battle and linger on for a long time.

May 26, 2008 Thanks to hopdog for passing this one onto me. Pours a hazy orange/amber with a medium creamy/bubbly off white head that left a bunch of spotty lacing. Aroma of orange, pine, lots of fresh American hops, caramel and lightly toasted notes. Flavor of pine, mixed citrus, nice and hoppy, caramel, lightly toasted malt and moderate hop bitterness.

Sep 24, 2008 Updated: Oct 25, 2008Bottle shared by jsquire at patrick767’s local event. Poured a small ivory head, very little carbonation, fair amount of lacing, transparent, and a golden orange hue. The aroma consisted of caramel, citrus hops, pine, orange, and grapefruit. The flavor was caramel, grapefruit, citrus hops, malt, and a nice bitter finish. Tingly mouthfeel and medium bodied. A very drinkable and enjoyable IPA, nicely done and worthy of a try.

May 27, 2006 Truth in advertising. The description on the bottle is exactly what you get in the bottle. Long lasting head. Heavy lacing. Gold beer. Huge pure hop aroma. Some breweries would call this an Imperial. Got to be a hop lover to enjoy it. Not for the timid. Enticing sweetness puts in a noble effort against the strong hop bitterness.
