twotones8 - February 20, 2012Would consider to be more of a cult following. Excellent nose piney and citrus with an appearance of sweetness not to be taken too seriously. Beautiful body opaque fire orange with a light cream head that lingers with great retention. Upon sipping a mouth full of bitter that washes through followed by the slightest sweetness that in my opinion is exactly what this beer stands for and lives up to its true style




Smoothas - February 17, 2012Great balance with no bitterness of lesser-brewed Imperial IPAs. Notes of pine and grapefruit. Simply one of the best beers on the US.




mouland - February 11, 2012Tasted good for a high alcohol ipa. Slightly overrated. Would order again


evolutionary - February 10, 2012Not as good as hop slam but still a great beer. Very clean and hoppy. Sweet smell but a bit bitter.




tobywitte - February 7, 2012Very light for a double/imperial. Excellent hoppy flavor that isn't at all overpowered by the 8%. Notes of grapefruit and citrus to finish.


Albie9 - February 6, 2012Really is the best beer ever, great balance of hops and flavor with a lasting, powerful finish. Even the color is spot on, the bottle is pretty cool too. The hype is for real


Joe*3/7 - February 4, 2012Believe the hype! Very high gravity, but nice feel. Sweet start with a hoppy finish. Well worth the effort to find.
