Growler shared with after4ever. Thanks! Pours a clear dark gold with a fluffy white head. Aroma of pine and pineapple. Medium-light body and medium carbonation. Sweet taste of fruit and citrus, with a softly bitter finish.

Sep 6, 2008 What a slap in the face. Golden pour with a soapy head. Nose is pine and grass, with some floral notes. Almost sappy. I was expecting a 120minute like experience, but there is some balance here. The malts add enough body to keep the hops in check, and make this a VERY enjoyable beer.

Sep 6, 2008 500mL bottle, purchased locally...whoo Hoo to that!
081308 bottling. It’s a really nice beer. The hops blend into the malt so beautifully. Nicely sweet with an awesomely hoppy bitterness. Great balance, there is a reason this beer is one of those "must have, everyone talks about it, no really will you trade me some, ISO, etc. etc. etc." beers.

Sep 5, 2008 500 ml bottle, courtesy of the kind and generous golubj. 071008 bottling. Oh my goodness, what a beer. Pours a clear, golden color. Large, foamy, fluffy white head. Tons of lacing. Beautiful aroma of pine, citrus. Flavor is a wonderful mix of floral hops and thick, sticky pine resin. Just the right amount of sweetness. Nice carbonation throughout. Long, bitter finish. This one is a knockout!

Sep 5, 2008 Enjoyed right after a Bind Pig from R.R. Probably should have waited until the next day for a proper eval. Oh well, that gives me a reason to buy some more. Huge cream colored foamy head with plenty of lacings. Very smooth drinker for the style. About as balanced as a DIPA can be. Aromatic, piney, orange pineapple resininous, pine needles, and alcohol is well hidden. What a treat. I wish I had a 15 gallon keg of this in a kegerator. I probably would never get my lawn mowed again. Or go to work! Bottled on date: 8-13-08.

Sep 4, 2008 Bottled on 081308 courtesy of FlacoAlto. Freash pine and citrus hit the nose and new this was good. Orange cooper body with white head. Flavor had the dry citrus vine along with enough grapefruit flavor as so not to feel too dry. Thirst quenching experience cool and crisp on the palate. Really enjoyed this one thanks Sebastian
