Flavor was much of the same with some citrus hints. Not as smooth as the yulesmith summer but still very good. mmmbeer (762), Austin, Texas, USA

Bottle poured into tulip- poured semi cloudy light burnt orange, medium carbonation of tiny bubbles, white ring with wisps formed on the glass for a head. Hearty aroma of various floral hops, citrus, and a caramel note. Hits the mouth with a defined wide medium body, sweetness initially gets attention but the hops come in evenly, finish has a warming burn from the hops that just keeps going- everything is very well balanced in this brew- a bit shocking since it’s a double IPA- no major hop overload, but it’s very present . Hopslam or Hop 15? Hop 15- by the gallon slapnuts!!! robbmotiwalla (50), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA

The aroma hits you hard with the first sip hitting harder! By the time it hits the back of the mouth it smooths out and finished nicely. I love this beer. I know I said the Port Brewing Wipeout IPA was one of the best IPA’s I’ve had, but Hop-15 is twice as good (DIPA).

| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Jan 26, 2008 Light amber/orangey color with a big fluffy off white head. Decent lacing down the sides of the snifter.
Huge, sweet, tropical hops dominate the aroma.
Grapefruit, pineapple, orange, pine, and a slight grassiness all rush forth from the complex variety of hops used in this beer. A perfect amount of caramel malt backs up the hop onslaught. The hop bitterness is appreciable but not overdone. Very well balanced.
Smooth and a bit thick, good dry hoppy finish. The 10% kinda snuck up on me, but this was enjoyable til the end. Another great Port beer. LtDan (520), Los Angeles County, California, USA

Caramel custard, piney and citrus hops. Possibly my favorite beer, trying this beer could change peoples entire perception on 100 IBU beers.
