| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 21, 2008 I tried this several times before I decided to rate. Great aroma and color. Good hop taste and bitterness but the malt came out a little more at the end than I want in an IPA. DrDavid (957), Johnson, Vermont, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 18, 2008 (Bottle). Slightly citrusy aroma. Dark amber color with medium beige head. Taste is a bit uninteresting for an IPA, although there’s nice bitterness. Could use more complexity, and more of a citrus twang. Svesse (2683), Hässelby, Sweden
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 18, 2008 (Bottle, Oliver Twist, Stockholm) Amber colour with frothy, beige head. Fruity, malty nose with notes of orange marmalade, citrus peel, caramel and toffee. Fruity, malty taste with caramel, toffee, orange peel, grapefruit and hints of pine needles and resin in the finish. Good bitterness, superb balance with a strong malt presence among the hops. Very nice one! RedSox2004 (362), Pacific Palisades, California, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 17, 2008 Dark amber color, minimal head but nice lacing. Strong bitter hops aroma and tasdte, with a nice malt balance. Medium body, great carbonation and a very crisp and dry aftertaste. A classic IPA. Dmalone102 (221), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 17, 2008 Alot has already been said about hopdevil, so I won’t go Crazy. Bought a 6-pack of it from some punk-rock bar in Philly. Fantastic aroma and hop flavor. Strong malt backbone to back it up. TheBeerBaron (219), Florida, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 17, 2008 Dark amber color, creamy off white head that laces very well. This shows the high amount of premium ingrediencts involved in this beer. Not much carbonation seen in the glass. Mucho malt aroma and a creamy wheat that then transitions to a medium style hops. Its good and even, not the overboard hop circus that is often accosciated with silly named ipas like this. A thicker palate due to all the malt and hops that goes into this beer. Overall a well representation of micro craft IPA, not unique but well done. Skinnyviking (4191), Copenhagen, Denmark
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 16, 2008 Cask. Low fluffy off-white lasting head. Clear dark amber body. Mild fruity aroma. Creamy fruity flavor, pleasantly hopped. Smooth palate. Low carbonation, short aftertaste. BeerBaron617 (313), Novi, Michigan, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Aug 15, 2008 Well, I’m not sure if it’s because I just had a double IPA, but this seems a bit on the mild side. It is a wonderful beer, but as far as calling it an IPA, I’m not sure. It pours a darker amber with a great head. The flavor, while very good, is just not all there.
