Bottle, shared with Parksy and pitted against Firestone Union Jack. Deep hazy gold, bubbly white head. Similar nose to Firestone just not as intense, and a little sweeter. Equally hoppy as Firestone with similar character, only a little spicier. Mouthfeel is not as chewy and a little thinner. Equally bitter finish.

lct-cpr, med-dense-cm-hd, ^eff, ^co2.
aroma: biscuity-malt ^fresh-piney-leafy-hops.
flavor: crisp piney-hops T1, co2-burn deep-hop-resiny T2, piney-hop resin T3. hops are slightly citrus but mostly pine.
too much co2 and not enough malt backbone for me.

Dec 30, 2009 12 oz. Bottle. Pours an amber/copper hue with ample frothy white head. Hoppy aroma immediately evident. Citrus notes are plentiful in this hop-infused beer. A very good, if not great IPA.

Dec 29, 2009 Bottle. Pours cloudy amber/orange with a light fluffy off-white head that clings to the glass. Citrus hop, grapefruit, and pine aromas. Malt and citrus flavors with a grapefruit finish. Very nice IPA.

Dec 28, 2009 Bottle. Amber colour with a lasting medium-sized white head. Hoppy aroma with notes of pine, citrus and malt. The flavour is quite hoppy with grapefruit and pine also slightly sweet, malty and bitter. Medium-bodied, aftertaste is long, bitter and dry. Good brew

Dec 28, 2009 Bottled. Clear amber colour, with not the biggest of heads(poured cold). Loads of grapefruit, sweet orange and mandarine in aroma. Superb balance of hops and malt here. Solid malt base, with pronounced hop flavour from first sip to finish, with notes of sweet malt and oranges, with wood and pine in the end. The bitterness grows on you, and lingers long after. Not as brutal hop-kick like Celebration and probably more malty. Wonderful beer.

Dec 27, 2009 Bottle 0,355 l. Clear amber, whitish head. Nose is beautifully hopped, citric and floral with some forest dropped in and even herbs. Flavor is crisply hopped, fresh and somewhat bitter without much sweetness to balance. Which is actually a good thing. Very nice.

Dec 26, 2009 Bottle. poured with a light, fluffy head. when smelling the brew you get hit with a great rush of hops. The beer starts off very bold with the hop’s flavor and is completed with a dry finish. great brew
