look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

A - A hazy golden color. Very nice head retention and sticky lace on the side. A little lighter than most double IPA's.

S - Piney hops, and lots of them at that. Sweetness from the malts is apparent too.

T - Very bitter hops up front, with citrus notes and the sweet malts towards the end. Very nice blend.

M - Very crisp, as a good double IPA should be. Highly carbonated, with a kick at the end of each sip.

D - Drinkability is low because of such a high abv that is not hidden. But a very good double IPA to kick start your night, or just finish it off

Had a pint glass, nitro on-tap.
A - Golden amber body that is almost clear. Head was about 2.5 fingers of extra-fine bubbles, ivory in color. Lacing was continuous to the bottom of the glass with a ridge left at every sip.
S - Weak for an ale of this caliber. Piney hops with citrus. I expected far more with the head.
T - Bold, bitter, hops, a touch of malt. Started on the weak side, but improved into the drink.
M - A lot of carbonation, dry on the finish.
O - After admiring the head for several minutes, I was disappointed with the aroma and taste. Some will enjoy the nitro and it was a good, but not great experience for may taste.

Serving type: nitro-tap

12oz bottle poured into a tulip. Enjoy by Jul 9 2013 on the neck.

A: Pours a clear light amber with a full white head. Not very much visible carbonation. The head leaves some nice lacing.

S: Citrus hop aroma is the first thing I notice. Pleasant with a touch of earthiness and grapefruit. A bit of malt sweetness in there as well.

T: This one is bold, a slap in the face of hop bitterness and a strong malt backbone. Hops have great flavor though and blend seamlessly into the malt. Nice fruity aspect going on with the hops. The big ABV is hidden well in all the flavor.

M: Full bodied brew with low carbonation. A bit sticky on the backend from the resinous hops but that gives it a bit of a nectary feel. Very dry.

Overall is certainly a bold and serious double IPA. Worth a try for any hophead. Need to give the Mojo a shot now.
