It's a great IPA please don't get me wrong but there are better and more complex ones out there. Super rare though and has some fame associated with it so you might a well try it.

It was incredibly smooth for an imperial. A salty note initially to overpower that traditional hop smack but overall fantastic! Brewmasters at Russian know what the f they are doing!!! There is a reason why this is the most sought after craft in the game!!! An absolute must try

Nice amber color and very smooth taste, however just s tad to hoppy for my liking. Slightly overrated in my opinion especially at $10 a bottle.

I wouldn't say it is my number one of all beers, but it is possibly the best of this style. Not sure it lives up to the hype overall, but at the very least it is an excellent beer.

The perfect amount of hops for for an IPA. If you ever see this, swoop it up. It is light but strong and may be he perfect IPA

Bittersweet taste with distinct hops that follow. Beautiful.
