Nov 20, 2008 Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy golden with a small white head that leaves good lacing. Aroma of citrus, apricot, and floral hops. Taste is the same as aroma. Medium mouthfeel with a strong amount of bitterness and smooth alcohol. Very good.

Pours gold, white head.
Aroma is floral and very hoppy with notes of malts.
Taste, just hops all over coupled with some fruit notes (grapefruit and citrus), and not really my cup of "hops". leaving some bitter dry finish. Overall a good complex DIPA, that should please any aficionados of hoppy beers.
Re-Rate 4/14/09 enjoyed it a lot more than previously. More balanced

Nov 20, 2008 Bottle. Pours orange/amber with a quick white head. Reeks of hops. Citrus, grapefruit and slightly boozy, tastes like mostly delicious hops. Completely awesome.

Nov 19, 2008 3/27/08 - 750 courtesy of Naka. Pours hazy orange/amber with quickly dissipating white head. Lots o’ hops in the nose. Rather complex on that end. Citrus, resin, pine, pineapple, grapefruit, flowers and grass. Taste is straight hops. Everything imaginable. Delicious.

Nov 19, 2008 Pours a golden orange color with an aroma of pine sap, citrus, sap, and more pine. Flavor is a fizzy piney liquid with a bite. This beer bites and backs off leaving the mouth with a nice grapefruit feeling. Double IPA brewed with feeling.

Nov 19, 2008 I am excited to get this in Chicago. Someone suggested this gave Pliny a run for its money. No, that’s not close. However, it pours a deep amber with a light, off white head. Aroma is spicey, citrusy, with sweet malt and a sugar cookie backbone. Flavor is bitter, with orange rinds mixed into a pastry sweet malt. Very bitter finish. But not unbelievable bitter. No sense of alcohol at all in the beer. This is an Awesome double IPA.

Nov 18, 2008 Light lasting cream head on dark amber. Moderate hop aroma. HUGE up front hop flavour. A hint of bubble gum. Delicious complex hop soup with a nice complementary malt sweetness.

Nov 18, 2008 Bottle from Binny’s Lakeview. First of all, I don’t think this is fair. Mine had little carbonation, which sucks. But, from what I could gather, this is pretty kick ass. Not enough malt in my opinion to hold up the alcohol burn. For me, if you’re pushing the double digits, I need some dry, biscuity malts to prop it up. Other than that, tones of pine, citrus and bitterness. Basically, a bigger, meaner, darker version of Wipe-Out. I need a fresh/carbonated bottle...
