Flavor is that of an unbalanced IIPA... vegetable/medicinal hops, caramel malt, and a big dose of whatever. Not very impressive. Metalhead (572), Lake Zurich, Illinois, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 12, 2009 Golden orange in colour with a thin white head, light lacing.
Aroma is very floral, quite hoppy and on the sweet side.
The flavour is extremely floral and very hoppy, some citrus, not overly balanced with lots of noticeable alcohol.
Warming alcoholic mouthfeel, large body, moderate carbonation.
Finishes long, floral and quite warm.
I prefer my IIPA more towards the citrus side than the floral. Its drinkable but I wanted more grapefruit dammit.
Bottle at Mondial 2009 in Montreal, Quebec.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 22, 2009 Grapefruity, piney, resinous. Good DIPA from arcadia finally. Mine was not as carbonated as I would have liked. Paid $3.50 for a 12 oz= a bit pricey. Worth a try, one of the better ones but too much $ with all the competition.
