Pine and citrus filled nose from the American hops. Malt sweetness in there as well. Drinkable hop juiciness is the key while remaining balanced with ample caramel presence.
It is said that the return of the HopDevil doesn’t mark the end, but rather the beginning. Each year he comes back to the hop harvest, where he thirsts for one thing – that bold hop flavor with notes of citrus and pine. It’s a menacingly delicious IPA brewed with American hops and meticulously crafted. After all, the devil is in the details.

On tap at Tadg’s in Kyoto. Mild funk in the aroma, nice golden amber color with a clean bitter pine taste. Pretty good.

Bottle. Pours an orange/amber color with an average head that leaves some spotty lacing. Aroma is citrus hops & sweet malt. Taste is grapefruit rind & resinous pine bitterness. Finish is clean & dry. Solid.

Bottle from a trade, thanks! Pours a hazy amber with a yellowish brown head that dissipates to the edges and laces. Aroma has notes of citrus with a bit of resin and a sweet grain backing. Flavor is similar with a citrus and pine combination with some light resin and sweet grains in the finish.

Great IPA. Pours red, amazing lacing and good head. Aroma is very fruity. Nice grapefruit, tangerine. Bitter aftertaste. Average carbonation. Palate has depth. Enjoyed this more than the Sculpin I had earlier. Tap at Taberna Lupula in San Juan.

Bouteille 12oz, courtoisie de Hogtownharry ou Blankboy. De couleur ambrée-cuivrée et claire. Nez de houblon citrique (pamplemousse) aux notes herbeuses, résineuses et florales, malté de caramel doux et fruité (agrumes). Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et une texture légèrement huileuse et aux notes crémeuses. Goût moyen-amer de houblon citrique (pamplemousse) aux notes florales, terreuses et résineuses (une amertume qui dure toute la gorgée) avec un léger goût fruité (agrumes et zeste) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût malté de caramel doux aux faibles notes de rôties puis en finale, le houblon domine en étant légèrement asséchant, herbeux et un peu plus résineux. Post-goût long et un peu sec, amer de houblon citrique, herbeux et aux notes résineuses avec des notes fruitées (zeste d’agrumes).

It pours a translucent amber gold body with a head that disappears within a couple seconds. Even with an aggressive pour, the head didn’t last. The smell has an earthy hoppiness that isn’t overbearing. I noticed a bit of clove and cinnamon. The taste has the earthy hoppiness again along with the clove and cinnamon. The palate has a low to medium amount of carbonation. Overall, a pretty good IPA that I would come back to.
