This beer pours a hazy orange color with a hoppy light floral smell. The smell transports the drinker to a florally spring field (without the allergies though). The taste is very hoppy, and a bit bitter. It sports a very fresh and floral taste. There is also a bittery, coppery aftertaste. Minimal malts, just a huge amount of hops in this one. As I drink this concoction it grew on me, but there was always a bitter aftertaste present. After drinking, I think it is pretty good, but can't compete with another over the top hoppy beer that whoops you in the ass with a giant hop, Dogfish Head 120 Minute IPA. This beer claims to be 100+ IBU's, which I can believe, but unlike the Dogfish Head which is a bit smoother, the bitterness really is just a bit too much. On the positive side, the bottle is totally badass looking and claims the beer is "A liquid poem to the glory of the hop!".
Overall beer rating 2.5 beer bottles out of 4
