Sampled on tap at the brewpub in Stevenson, Washington during ABA Beer Tour ’07. Pours a semi-hazy coppery amber brew with a very thin off-white head that dissolves quickly to a ring. Aroma of candi sugar, vanilla, and a touch of toffee. Flavor is medium bodied, very little carbonation, with caramel malt and sweet bourbon. Finish is slightly sweet with bourbon aftertaste. The whiskey aging took away a large amount of citrus hop flavor and character compared to the Homo Erectus Double IPA.

Cave man like. This I2PA is medium amber in color it tastes sweeter than most I2s and its got a bit of a nasty (cave man-eque) aftertaste.

Powerful bourbon nose and flavor. Simultaneously quite hoppy and malty. Notes of carmel came into play with this deep copper colored giant. As it warmed up it became creamier and gave off hints of vanilla and butter. Nice for the long dark days of winter!

Had at SIB. Dark amber with little head. Really thin. Nice sweet bourbon and vanilla aroma. Tastes like vanilla coke with bourbon. Very little hop presence....just sweet and thin with whiskey tastes. Doesn’t work for me. Killed the IPA flavors.

On draught at Concordia Ale House. I am a big fan of the regular homo erectus. Deep copper in color with off white head. Malt, bourbon, wood, and hops in the nose. Great hop flavor with a notes of caramel, wood, and bourbon. Nice beer.
