Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

This pours with an golden orange color with a substantial frothy head that hangs around. The aroma is a little sweet with just a hint of the hops that are to come. The taste is slightly sweet with a hoppy bitter finish with a slight alcohol taste thrown in. A good hoppy beer.
Grabbed a growler for Thursday night poker game. Taste is malty, grassy, grapefruit, and other IPA deliciousness. You get caramel, and citrus. Its kinda sweet and just hoppy enough. pretty decent although drinking an entire growler probably wasnt good idea.
Bottle from New Beer Distributors, New York, NY. A golden/amber coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Decent hoppy, malty aroma. Tastes hoppy, malty, grapefruit, yeasty, bitter, sweet. A quality Imperial IPA.
