Apr 9, 2009 Crushed with Jakebra. Brought it back from Pittsburgh. Very malty DIPA. Nose is dominated by sweet malt with some hops. Flavor is about the same with more hops and some nice bitter hops in the flavor and finish. Very smooth. No poop. Pretty damn nice.

Apr 5, 2009 Pours a deep golden body with an off-white head. Smells of fruity hops and caramel. Great body and mouthfeel with an excellent sweetness and good hopping. Wish it was a little more bitter on the finish.

Mar 28, 2009 12oz bottle from The Brass Tap in Wesley Chapel, FL. Pours an opaque orange-amber with a thin white head. Aroma is pine and sweet grapefruit. Flavor is alot of grapefruit and some pine..very rich, robust flavor...but the 10% alcohol is nowhere to be found! This goes down so smooth for what it is. Medium mouthfeel. I think this is a great IIPA...one of my favorites.

Mar 27, 2009 I thought this was a fantastic IPA. Labeled what it is and follows with great taste through the whole palate. Very nice and right on par.

Mar 25, 2009 Just as shawn14505 said it is a perfect example of the east coast version of a double ipa. I had this one again recently on tap and as usual delivers like it should. High abv that is hidden in my opinion rather well. Not as much citrus as I am used to in my west coast double ipas. Some people will not like this one as much because of the lack of hop bite. I say appreciate it more for it’s smoothness and drinkability then having a huge hop bite. Nice finish that does not stay around too long. Always a great double ipa. Nice brownish golden color.

Mar 21, 2009 Pours golden color with one finger white head. Aroma is floral hops. Taste is sweet, syrupy, and lacks the hop bite that I was looking for. Average DIPA.
