Draft pour at Toronado. Pours orange with a thin disappearing white head. Piney hop aroma. Slightly bitter, yet smooth hop flavor with some citrus. Easy drinking double. Good beer here. UPDATE : enjoyed from the new design 16 oz can. I've probably enjoyed this beer a half dozen times over the last 4 years since I first rated it. Still remains a solid imperial. A fresh can certainly doesn't hurt. Good balance of citrus bitter and lingering malts. Very good

Niesamowicie imperialne piwo. Slodowosc przebogata sporo tropikalnych cytrusow w nozdrzach. Melon, grejfrut nawet avocado wyczulem. Chmieli az tyle ze wypadaja ze szklanki. Piana spora trwala naprawde puszysta i kremowa. Metnosc na srednim poziomie ale w smaku cudownie slod otulony w cytrusowe smaki, swieze i mocno wyczuwalne dominuja tu ale slodowosc jest dobrana prawie idealnie do pary.

22 ounce bottle poured into a tulip. No bottle date, purchased 4/6/2014. Pours a hazy apricot yellow with 3 fingers of frothy off-white head that fades slowly. Aromas of caramel, citrus, floral notes, pine, light tropical fruit. Tastes of citrus, floral notes, bitter piney hops. Medium body with a dry finish. Juicy mouthfeel, medium carbonation. Not my favorite IPA from Port but solid.

Delad flaska på Bishop Arms, Gustav i Malmö. Smak och doft av humle (en aning trött sådan), tall, grapefrukt, resin, apelsin, citrus och örter. Fruktig, bra eftersmak med tydlig beska med toner av grapefrukt och maskros.

0.65l bottle shared with The Tasting Crew. Yeah, looks quite good this with a orangy near glowing cloudy body under a big really lacing off-white head. On the nose I get a near flourish hoppy bitterness with tones of citrus, grains, bitter grapefruit or even as far as pommelo perhaps? The bottle is not completely fresh, but it smells alright for an old bottle. Nice gliding oily mouthfeel with a soft to average carbonation level. I like the hoppy balance here. It has a great double IPA bitterness, lots of it actually. Really grassy and almost a bit pungent perhaps? Someone mentioned medicinal bitterness, and I'm almost tempted to agree. Well, this is one of those I will try again when I get a chance. 23.10.2013

Delad flaska på Bishop Arms, Gustav. Stram med tydligt orange citrusfokus. Apelsinblommor, apelsinskal, resin. Torr, stram, lätt örtig kryddighet, kalksten, mintkaramell, en hel del knäck (mariannekonfekt). Mycket lång kraftig eftersmak som jag tycker är ölets främsta kvalité nu när det inte var purfärkst. Riktgt gott.

Ins Glas ergießt sich ein orangegoldenes Bier mit geringer aber schönen Schaumkrone. Geruch sehr malzig herb, fruchtig, tropische Früchte. Geschmack stark malzig bitter, fruchtig herb, minimal würzig.

Bottle 650ml. Hazy yellow color with white head. Hoppy citrusy aroma with grass and flowers. The taste is hoppy again, pine, tropical fruits and peach.

Återtestat på Chapter nu på fat tidigare testar på 65 bomber. . Närmast perfekt doft påminner en hel del om Hop Stoopid. Fräsch tropiska frukter å svag ton av dov källare. Smaken tyvär inte som doften utlovat. Ren med inslag av äpple lite trä och rejäl efter beska. PÅ TOK FÖR MYCKET KOLSYRA SOM FÖRSTÖR ÖLEN . Saknar IPA glasen som hade tagit hand om kolsyran å lyft ölen. Otroligt obalanserad öl som doftar fantastiskt men likt testat Wipeout från samma bryggeri nästan totalt förstörd av all kolsyra inpumpad..

Botella de 65 cl en el lupulo. Mayo de 2013. Buena Ipa aunque no tanto como la Wipe Out. No obstante bastante recomendable y para repetir cuanto antes.
