Unfortunately too malty for my tastes. Wouldn't do it again.

Lives up to the hype...great hoppy smooth drink like an IPA should be. Difficulty in obtaining is frustrating!

Very good beer, very smooth and hoppy with lots a caramel notes. Very good but not great! Still not able to knock off Simtra or Hop Shortage. I'm not sure it's a top 5 beer but I'd drink it everyday given the option.

Pine and citrus hops perfectly balanced with a hint of malt, citrus finish and tiny bubbles

Very smooth and balanced. Not nearly as hoppy as the younger or blind pig. Great flavor.

A Plinian eruption of herbal hedgerow and grapefruit on a sticky pineapple biscuit that extends high into the imperial IPA stratosphere. (Bottle at Darkness Day '12)
