Wow, they aren't kidding around about it being bitter!
HomerHomer's Beer Odyssey - August 6, 2014
APPEARANCE - Transparent coppery red. 5-finger head that lasts awhile. Some lacing. SMELL/AROMA/SCENT - Very aromatic. I could smell it from 3 ft. away. Strong piney, just a little sweet. Herbaceous. TASTE - Piney, herbaceous, cloves, rye bread. ABV very well-hidden. MOUTHFEEL/PALATE/TEXTURE - Light and dry, with very good carbonation for a high ABV brew. Well balanced. OVERALL/DRINKABILITY - This is the Levy's Jewish Rye of IPAs. Magnificent resiny aftertaste that stays with you. A very drinkable ale. You can guzzle this one (if you dare).

Bottle. Strong malts and hops but well balanced. Very full and smooth. Long lasting full aftertaste and warms in the belly. Very good and uniquely full smooth beer.

Very bitter and full. Malty nose. Deep red color. One is fine. Two or more would be too much.
