Nov 23, 2006 Bottled, thanks Immy! Clear dark amber, rich dense head. Hoppy estery pineapple and grapefruit aroma. Sweet and caramelly with near full body. The hops hide in a sea of spun sugar and caramel. More hop aroma than bitterness in the finish.

Nov 19, 2006 Bottle. Poured a dark amber (almost brown) color with a thin tan head that quickly dissipates to nothing. The aroma was of sweat malts. The flavor found dark fruits, caramel, and a light roast background. Light, comfortable bitterness throughout. Medium to full body that is very smooth. Outstanding flavor and palate! My favorite Terrapin yet!

Nov 18, 2006 Whoa! 12oz bottle. Pours a dark, reddish color with a big fluffy head. The aroma is flowery and hoppy but it didn’t really give me a good idea of the punch this packs. This is a well balanced but very dry, bitter brew. Very well done! I wish I could get this regularly.

Nov 16, 2006 This one has quite a following here in Atlanta. Upon receiving our 1st keg I had high expectations. Pours a nice dark amber color with a slight head that holds to the glass nicely. Nice hoppy bitterness with some slightly sweet apricot flavor. Nice smooth finish with a pleasant aftertaste. This is a fine beer and now my second favorite in the Terrapin Monster Beer Line-up - #1 - Wake-n-Bake, #2 - Big Hoppy Monster, #3 - Rye 2, #4 - All American Imperial. Pilsner, #4

Nov 15, 2006 On tap @ the "Brick Store Pub." Pours a dark ruby color with a light tan head leaving excellent lacing. Aroma is very hoppy and the flavor has hints of citrus and caramel with a creamy texture and bitter hop finish. Excellent Brew for hop lovers!

Nov 13, 2006 Bottle (2005). Red-brown colour. Aroma is hoppy, very hoppy. It also has notes of sweet caramel. caramel sweetness comes through in the flavour. I also get an oily hop flavour. And get citric/grapefruit, lychee and pine form the huge amount of hop character it has. It ended up being a little too cloying and a bit over the top. But theres some good flavour in here.

Nov 12, 2006 Definitely big and hoppy. Pours a nice hazy reddish amber with a thin, beige head. Nice floral hop aroma, very strong. Hops up front in the taste with a well-developed malty undercurrent. Ends with a pleasantly bitter hop finish. Very nice.
