Bottle: Clear amber with a thin, light tan cap. Bright orange/tangerine aroma. Taste is sweet, orange and tangerine flavoured malt, Almost nectar territory, honey-ish mead-like quality...... Fruity, mild bittering.....peel. A really nice, mild, Imperial. Easy and light for the ABV.

Bottle - looks pretty nice - lightly hazy copper, with a frothy, sticky, thick lace - nose of citrus, Juicy Fruit gum, cherries soaked in simple syrup, pine resin -soft carbonation in the mouth - flavor is simple and quite sweet, with a juicy citrus flavor that gives the overall impression of those little fruit cups of mandarin oranges - a sharp hop acid bite finishes - harsh.

Bottle. Hoppy aroma, but not imperial hoppy, aroma is like a regular IPA. Strong bitter flavour with a sweet backbone. Hop finish has a bit of an alcohol burn.

Purchased at Breeze Thru Liquors in Wauwatosa, WI; enjoyed at home while being addicted to the show The Killing. Appearance is a dark gold with a rich white head. Aroma of rich caramel and dirty hops, nice balance. Taste is a bit malty with abundant hop flavor, not the easiest drinker but decent.

Got in a trade with swingracex. 12 ounce bottle into tulip glass, bottled on 2/12/2013. Pours lightly hazy golden copper color with a 1 finger dense off white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Nice soapy lacing clings down the glass. Aromas of grapefruit, orange zest, tangerine, lemon zest, floral, grass, light pine, caramel, light honey, and light bread. Nice and pleasant aromas with good complexity and balance of hop and malt notes; with decent strength. Taste of grapefruit, orange zest, tangerine, floral, grass, light pine, caramel, bread, and light honey. Fair amount of pine bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of citrus, citrus zest, floral, light pine, caramel, and bread on the finish for a good bit. Very nice flavor balance of hops and malt sweetness; with good complexity and zero cloying flavor after the finish. Light-medium carbonation and medium-full bodied; with a slick and fairly sticky mouthfeel that is good. Alcohol is very well hidden with only a slight warming noticed after the finish. Overall this is a very good double IPA. Good balance and complexity of hop and malt flavors; and very smooth to sip on. A very enjoyable offering.
