Feb 2, 2009 16 oz bottle. Poured an orange amber color, nice pearly white head. Aroma was hoppy, some citrus. Flavor was somewhat hoppy, not as much as I’d like in an IPA. Palate was decent thickness, somewhat lively. Overall an okay IPA.

Feb 1, 2009 Nice aroma and appealing orange, caramel appearance. Very good carbonation and lacing. Intense hop flavors. Not a big IPA fan, but would rate this one above average.

Jan 19, 2009 16oz bottle. IPA2 version. Semi-transparent orange-brown color. Full bodied caramel flavor collides with syrupy hops. Actually quite nice, a pleasant surprise. Mellow carbonation works well with the high ABV and solid hopping. Malty finish.

Dec 30, 2008 Aroma of sugary malt - not unlike opening a can of liquid malt before home brewing. Some piney hops present in the nose, just buried under the sweetness. Dark amber in appearance, a frothy white head that disappears quickly but leaves some nice lacing. Flavor is heavy malt, somewhat metalic, and leans toward home brewing again with a somewhat strong yet thin malty sweetness. Fresh hop notes - more pine than grapefruit. Finish is bitter and sweet. This one has loads of malt. ABV is not noticable, but this does have a heavy beer feel to it. Couldn’t drink too many of them.

Dec 19, 2008 Updated: Dec 20, 2008Hazy copper color with a nice off white head. Aroma and taste as you would expect are dominated by hops but both have hints of caramel. The hops give it a bite and the malt gives it a little balance.

Nov 20, 2008 Updated: Mar 9, 2009Plenty of citric hops in the nose, also some sweet, floral aromas. Pours a cloudy orange-brown, with a big beige head, leaving much lace. Flavor is citric hops, orange-juicy in the mouthfeel, turning towards honey, but with an off-taste of vulcanized rubber in the finish. Creamy, tingly on the palate.

Nov 20, 2008 Bottle: Poured a deep hazy orangey color ale with a medium foamy head with good retention and minimal lacing. Aroma consists of bitter hops with distinguishable caramel malt base. Taste is also a mix between some bitter hops, though not as bitter as expected considering the style, with a nice caramel malt backbone. Full body with average carbonation. Refreshing and well done but not as hoppy as expected.

Sep 29, 2008 1liter bottle from Windy City Liquor. Pours a lightly hazed burnt orange color, with a big fluffy off white head. Nose was fairly weak with notes of citrus, pine and a bit grassy. Flavor had heavy malt presence and was fairly bitter, definitely of the east coast style. Not the best IIPA in the world, very underrated, not so bad as to be in the bottom 5%.
