| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 17, 2009 From Libations. Slightly hazy dark gold underneath a thin yet creamy ivory head. Hop aroma was VERY strong, especially as I was drinking outside, downwind of my beerglass. What a great taste; lots of hops here, yet it sweetened at the finish. Marsiblursi (1649), Göteborg, Sweden
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Sep 16, 2009 (Bottle) Pours clear deep golden with an off-white head. The aroma is hoppy up front with notes of, earth, peppery spices, weed, oranges, pineapples, flowers, tea, light pine/resin and lychee. Plastic undertones alongside tiny hints of compost earth. Light sweet and sticky almond cookie-like malt. Touch of tart-ish wheat. The nose holds too much Columbus and sticky/tart malt for my liking. Hints of ripe mango. The flavour is light to medium sweet, medium to heavily bitter and light acidic. Tones of earth, pine, orange, grapefruit, mango, peach, perfume, toast and cookie. The finish is sticky, grassy, resiny and black tea-like with a clear alcohol sting. The mouthfeel is round and light sticky with a light to ´medium carbonation. Lingering afterbitterness. Medium to full bodied. Maybe not a super fresh bottle but I don’t like the malt and hop balance in this one. jeremytoni (1111), Swedesboro, New Jersey, USA

| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Sep 8, 2009 Imperial americal ale loaded with hops but without the edgy Indian nip at the end of the sip. Also a bit of the earthy and peppery notes I’ve enjoyed in other southern tier offerings. Cavie (1439), Fort Worth, Texas, USA

Aroma of hops, citrus, grapefruit, and slight malt. Taste of hte same with a bit of citrus, spices, grass, and a little funk. This medium bodied brew is not bad but a little different. It is unique.
