Pours amber with thick off white head. Aroma is powerful toasty malts with a delicious cirusy hop kick. Flavor is a ridiculous hop punch to the mouth. I wish there was a bit more balance. Hop addicts may enjoy this more than me.

Dec 3, 2009 pale orange color, small head. citrusy hop, sweet, pale malt notes. taste has a good amount of bitterness up front, turning to sweet, pale malt flavors, finishing somewhat dry with some alcohol burn. i’m gonna guess a lot of amarillo hops.

Nov 23, 2009 (draught at saucer on the lake) pours clear orange with nice lasting head. Nose is bready, mango, and light piney hops. Taste is bready, orange marmalade, alcohol, white pepper, and juicy citrus hops. Nice carbonation and decently thick body.

Nov 22, 2009 Bomber. Pours an average, creamy, off-white head. Lacing. Clear, deep copper body. Great looking beer. Big, sticky, resinous grapefruit and pine nose. Flavor is of thick and chewy caramel and hops. Grapefruit and some mandarin orange. A dash of alcohol also comes through. Full bodied, average carbonation. Somewhat sticky and goopy. Overall a fairly enjoyable DIPA. It’s big, but not too brash.

Nov 20, 2009 Pours a deep amber with a thin white head. The aromas are citrus with a little grass. The flavors are sweet sugar, light grass and citrus(and not in that order). Not a good Imperial IPA. Too sweet(although I’m a hophead). Cheers!

Nov 9, 2009 Very good brew. Sweet, smooth, hoppy and has a nice caramel backbone. Color is almost red with an off-white head. Very sweet caramel and hop flavor. Would drink again.

Nov 9, 2009 Good head at pour. Dark orange color. I think the color is too dark but still nice. Aroma is very subtle, not strong. Nice aroma but not my favorite. Aroma gets a little stronger as it is allowed to breath. Taste is too sweet. You can taste the alcohol which is a turnoff. Smooth palate, doesn’t linger like other IPAs I have tasted. Overall, I don’t care for this beer because of its sweetness. It does pack a punch I will give it that! If you like sweet IPAs, then you might like this beer. Not recommended for traditional hop heads.

Nov 4, 2009 bottle, golden color with still head, light pine and alcohol aroma, flavors is very light and floral for an IIPA, not overpowering or overly bitter, very balanced, definitely underrated, thanks Eric
