| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 14, 2009 22 ounce bottle from State Line Liquors. Pours a clear copper color with a medium head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma is almost like a fresh hopped beer with huge fresh resin, spicy, peppery and citrus hops as well as notes of wood, vanilla. Taste is fresh leafy, herbal, peppery, spicy, citrus hops. Slight notes from the wood as well as some stone fruits, notable peach and apricot. Slight alcohol warmth. Full bodied and slightly sticky. Very nice effort. bedainedebiere (292), Terrebonne, Quebec, Canada
| 4.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 4/5 | 19/20 | Apr 14, 2009 Updated: Jun 2, 20099,99$ for 650ml... Bought and brought in Quebec by my brother. With that kind of divine beer, I too would love to live in the US... A brewer I know said, reading the product description on the bottle label: "these guys are crazy!" Totally extreme and uncompromising beer. The aroma is quite powerful and flowery because of the hops, and oaky. The taste is like an orgasmic frenzy of a blend of hops, with notes of citrus, mainly grapefruit, with a dry caramel presence, and a great depth in the taste although the oak-aging flavor remains very present. The bitterness is not too harsh, just in perfect dominant harmony. This ought to become an american classic beer! And I had a Troeg’s Flying Mouflan on the same evening... What an amazing beer night it was! abcfan (247), New Jersey, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 14, 2009 Very solid brew. Never had the original UnEarthly, but will have to pick up soon! Pours orange with white head. Nice hop aroma along with caramel, citrus and oak. Very solid brew, would drink again. TomDecapolis (3203), Skippack, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Apr 14, 2009 Bottle pours a lightly hazy golden amber with a smaller bubbly off white head that left sticky lacing. Aroma of wood, earthy, vanilla, pine and citrusy hops. Flavor oak, vanilla, citrusy hops, caramel, nuts, floral. Great use of oak on a double IPA. lb4lb (2011), Austin, Texas, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 12, 2009 Bottle shared at tasting. Pours amber with an offwhite head. Smell is slightly oaky and balanced with hops and alcohol both showing up. Taste is quite oaky but sweet and, yet drinkable. Tasty but a bit sweeter than I hoped.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 12, 2009 Bottle. Slightly hazy deep golden beer. The aroma is great. Rich hoppy nose with lots of bright citrusy hops, a bit of tropical mango and a bit of passionfruit as well. There is also a touch of light spicy peppery character. A bit of lemon/lemongrass citrus. The oak is very, very subtle, and is only suggested at with a hint of vanilla. Body is quite full with some light chewy malts. A light touch of soft honeyed sweetness. There is a a bit of sticky lingering hoppiness. It’s not all that different from the regular Un*earthly, but it is still very tasty. GranvilleTim (520), Granville, Illinois, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 12, 2009 Golden honey pour with a frothy white head. Hoppy aroma with hints of light fruit. Taste of malt, hops, then you get the oak flavor-all in that first second it hits your taste buds. What a great creamy tasting beer. Nice mellow aftertaste-you can’t taste the alcohol.. Well-balanced. Lots of various tastes-all merging together in unity. I like this beer. It left some lacing. Juelze (912), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 12, 2009 Thanks for sharing this bro. Pours a rich amber color with thin off white head and mild white lace. Aroma is mango, pineapple and resinous hops. Taste is very citrus, earthy and resinous hops with very subtle oak finish. I was expected a little more wood flavors in this beer. Finishes clean, creamy and good amounts of carbonation. All and all it was a decent DIPA.
