does not count jackyjoe10 (4), USA Oct 11, 2007 Bottle at home. This is so good. Bright copper color with pungent floral citrus flavor from start to finish. An excellent Imperial IPA
Lagunitasfan (39), San Diego, California, USA Aug 29, 2008 On tap today at Stone, then bottle tonight. Damn this is a frigging good IPA. Piny/sweet scent, hops hidden away. Not much foam, but great sticky lace. Sweet taste without being icky sweet. Not gooey like some brews. Nice hoppy/bitter finish. Yum yum, gimme some. rayOfBeer (226), El Cerrito, California, USA Aug 29, 2008 Poured from bottle a hazy light orange with a medium sized white head. Aroma is strong with floral-citrusy hops. Flavor is a combination of floral, orange, bitterness with toasted caramel and hops. There is a great balance between sweet and bitter that makes this easy to drink. Overall a great beer. Enjoy. phishpond417 (1409), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA Aug 28, 2008 Pours a deep, dirty copper colour with a huge creamy white head. Instant smack in the face of hoptopia, pine, hopsicles, a dozen lemons and wood. Hoo boy- better then bitter- pungent, dank and stinky. I loved every second of this beer. It was the well hopped salvation I needed to complete this evening. Nothing I like better then getting smacked around with a big hop filled brew. MinetoKuroda (8), Nihombashi Chuo-ku, Japan does not count Aug 26, 2008 On tap. It is Gokujo no Umasa da. Incredibly well-balanced. bitterness is long lasting but it is not iyami na shitsukosa. Muscle but shinayaka. Cruzan59 (141), Lititz, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 25, 2008 1pt 6oz single from Total Wine, River Edge, NJ...pours amber in color with a small white head...aroma is sweet, floral, citrusy...flavor is much of the same with a nice lingering hoppy bitterness...thin but smooth mouthfeel...thin lacing...not an overpowering Imperial but another damn good offering from Stone.
