4.20.14 Nice aroma, smooth hoppy taste well balanced with hops to give good flavor but not kick you in the teeth.

Awesome- grapefruit hoppy smooth beer. 9+ %. Had on tap at Ten Stone

Enjoy by 7-4-14. Strong on hops and malt. Dark fruit flavor and bitter aftertaste, definitely some alcohol in this one.

One seriously hoppy beer. Hop in the nose, mouth feel, all. No palate cleanser works.

Pours a straw yellow from the tap to a tasting glass. Smell: floral and fruity hops. Taste: more of the same. Incredibly smooth. One of the best IPAs on the planet.

6th batch 4.20.14. Very similar comments to before but the hops seems more muted and resiny in this version. Seems to have a law of diminishing returns from the first batch which was amazing. It is a good ipa but not something I would go search from store to store to find. The past couple batches have been above average for an imperial ipa but not super special

One of the best imperial ales I've had the pleasure of tasting. Very satisfying hoppy flavor with first sip. A very "dank" earthy finish.

4.20.14 - strong pine flavor. Still decent.
