| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Nov 2, 2006 12oz bottle. Clear copper color with clingy white head. I love the bottle design. Aroma is light with pine hops and sugary malts. Taste isn’t really aggressive as I was expecting. There are sweet flavors of piney hops. About midway some sweet malts enter as the hop bitterness peaks. The aftertaste has almost a bright piney-ness. Easy drinking IIPA. Hildigöltur (5109), København, Denmark
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Nov 1, 2006 Bottled. Hazy amber coloured. Cookies and alcohol in the aroma. Sweet cookie and hoppy flavour. Slightly alcoholic again. Sharp bitter finish. Rather unbalanced. Ungstrup (15220), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Oct 31, 2006 A hazy dark orange beer with a rim of beige head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of apricot and alcohol, the alcohol rips in the nose. The flavor is sweet alcohol, again the alcohol rips on the palate, but it also has strong notes of apricot and quite a lot of citrus, leading to a dry hoppy grassy end. hiphops (280), caldwell, New Jersey, USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 21, 2006 Bottle from multiple trades. Pours amber with a thin white head. Smells of citrus, rosemary, and yogurt. Taste is citrussy with some mellow perfumey qualities. Mouthfeel is thick and oily. The alcohol is very well masked on this one which knocked me on my ass by the time I was finished with it. Smooth, velvety finish. TPaliga (212), Munster, Indiana, USA

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 27, 2006 This is a great DIPA. Nice balance but the hops do shine through and make this a great example of this style. If you can find it, definitely give it a try. sloth (1672), Ceciltucky, Co., Maryland, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 17, 2006 Head is small, light tan with good retention and a film of sticky lace that stays put. Clear, orange colored brew. Big, piney nose, grapefruit and caramel malts abound. Body is med/full with a coating oily mouthfeel. An abundance of hop flavors, pine, grapefruit, more citrus, oily, resinous with berry notes too boot. Medium sweet malts, caramel and a bit grainy, bready. Finish is a touch sweet balanced out with a solid hop bite. Thanks Craig!
