Feb 20, 2009 Thanks to my bro for hooking this one up. Pours a deep amber hue with thin offwhite head that fades quickly leaving globs of lacing on the glas.. Aroma is of intense citrus if some pine and grapefruit. Mild malt notes and caramel also waft up the nose. Taste is light citrus and grapefruit with mild caramel. Easy drinking as hell and very well balanced. Delicious!

Feb 20, 2009 Great beer. I would probably be saying this is my my favorite IPA except I just had a Hopslam which is a very similar beer.
This beer is sweet and slightly bitter. The hops create almost a juice presence of floral. Amazing beer. Well worth any money you put down on this one!

Feb 18, 2009 Lost my notebook last night so im going tro do this from my head. Pours orange with some dark amber and brown. Reminds me of the color of the label. Awesome floral/pine hop aroma with subtle graprefuits notes but predominantly floral. Extrordinary flavor, very earthy, pine, sweet not overly bitter for the high level of IBU"s.

Feb 17, 2009 Bottle from Hyde Park Wine.
Poured clear copper color with a large frothy off-white head that lasted with excellent lacing. Moderate to heavy sour citrus hop and small malt aroma. Medium body with a slick texture and soft carbonation. Moderate to heavy citrus bittersweet flavor with a moderate to heavy bittersweet finish of medium to long duration.
Very good brew.

Feb 16, 2009 I think I rather aptly explained the aroma as being a resiny pine branch that was left in my armpit for a while and got tangy. Poured a beautiful golden-copper color with a one-finger head that stuck around for a little while. The flavour was HOOOPS with, what’s the word? HOOOOPS blended in for a distinctly hoppy experience. Finish was bitter. I am not a huge fan of the IPA style, so this bitter hoppy IPA was not for me.

Feb 15, 2009 Now this bills itself as an "Imperial Amber" but it’s difficult not to judge this against a DIPA. With that in mind, this is probably the hoppiest beer I have had. Carbonated and hard grapefruit juice. This gets thrown in with Hopslam, but i think the slam is the superior brew.

Feb 15, 2009 Color a little clear, orange. Hop character is quite delicious. Really has that citrusy-grapefruit character to it. Resinous, but not overpoweringly bitter or harsh. Very smooth. Nice malty body, however I noted that it was a little watery on the finish, probably the only thing that detracts from this rating. Floral, tart, citrusy, just a very good IPA.
