look: 3 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

bomber served in a tulip. review from notes of 11/20/10.

pours a dull orange/coppery tone with a good amount of haze to it. small white head that quickly recedes into a thin collar around the glass. not a whole lot of lacing.

citrusy hops (primarily grapefruit) dominate the nose, with a sweet maltiness hanging in the background. ok aroma; i've certainly whiffed better.

taste opens with a healthy blast of the citrus hops suggested in the nose followed by some balancing sweet malts... noticeable but not overpowering 9.2% ABV alcohol presence.... a decent, tasty, if somewhat unremarkable DIPA.

medium-bodied with middling, slightly prickly carbonation. smooth, goes down easily so pretty drinkable.

look: 3 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 3

Slightly hazy and light orange / copper in color with a very thin white head that almost disappears immediately.

Bright grapefruit and citrus with a very sweet candy malt aroma. Candy coated hops...yum!

Bitter and sweet hops hit your right up front. There is some grapefruit with a solid sweet candy presence. There are also a sweet ripe pears and peaches.

Moderate with solid carbonation.

It's alright, but I'm not really impressed. The beer is a little all over the place. The hops are bitter, but not really as flavorful as I would have expected. For a 9% DIPA the alcohol is hidden well, but I think they could have done more for the beer.

A buddy of mine sang the praises of this beer.

Appearance- Candy apple and burnt amber with a fizzy white cap, Very sticky spotty lacing. At 9% ABV the retention it does have is acceptable

Aroma- Sweet grapefruit an citra hop kick, There is also a slight fruity nose with a slight ester funk.

Taste- very sweet malt with a nice sharp bitterness. IT is definitely a sipper. It has this nice citrusy grapefruit note the is backed by a nice sweet caramel malt. The alcohol is detectable but not intrusive.

Mouthfeel- creamy with a very high carbonation level. It has a slick feel with a nice drying. Very heavy on the pallete. This is my first DIPA so forgive the mistakes.

This is a beer that you want to slowly enjoy. The beer really opens up as it warms up. The point is enjoy each beer for what it is not what you think is should be. This beer is definitely something that fits my taste well but you definitely can't drink more than a few.

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

A- A Dark amber, almost brown, with about 1cm of head, that slowly falls, little bit of lacing.

S- a little bit of sweet malt, and then a fair bit of citrusy hop. a touch of fruitcake in the smell, a little fruity there too.

T- slighty malty, followed quickly citrusy and piney hop, and finish is qiute bitter. on warming up a little bit of alcohol comes through, the bitterness intensifies, and some fruitcake flavours comes through.

m- nice prickly carbonation and a long bitterness, and a pretty dry finish.

D- although on warming up a bit of the 9per cent comes through, this is a dangerously drinkable beer for the strength.

4.18/5  rDev +14.2%
look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4

Poured from a 33cL bottle into a pint glass.

A: Big thick head with lace clinging to the sides. Slightly murky, ruby-tinged medium brown. Pretty colour. Some bubbles.

S: Not as fearsome as I expected. Strong hops, yes, but not overwhelming. Lots of malt as well.

T: Mm, remarkably tasty. The website claims 150 IBUs, but I doubt it. Malt is actually the main flavour, if not the most obvious one. Sweet and creamy, bready malt is incredibly substantial and delicious. Of course, the hop character is undeniable -- especially on the end of the taste. However, these hops are not intensely bitter, but softer and more aromatic (though a bit piney on the aftertaste). The aftertaste is long, bitter, and pleasing.

M: Caressing, smooth, filling, and fun, it coats the mouth before turning slightly dry. Never gets old. A high point.

D: The 9.2% is mostly subsumed by the heaviness of the malt, but it's still noticeable around the edges. A pretty delicious beer, although I am partial to DIPAs. It reminded me most of the Great Divide's Hercules. I'll chalk this one up as one of BrewDog's greatest successes. Recommended.

Appearance of a cream colored head poured from the bottle into a pint glass. Off red copper color to brown, on a borderline opaquenss but still with some see-through quality. Some decent lacing.

Bouquet of faint grapefruit but also sweet maltyness. Tasting of a lemon front giving way to equal but stronger grapefruit and hop characteristics. Aftertaste is a very surprising sugary almost maple sugar sensation.

Body in mouthfeel just about right making for an easily drinkable great Imperial IPA.

Taste. Hmm, pure TCP to me. Not just bitter, not even just warped but full blown psychotic and twisted. Doesn't mean it was enjoyable to drink. It wasn't. More of a beer as a dare. Like an entire pine tree shoved down your throat.
Will need to try this again.

look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5

A: poured from a bottle into a mug. hazy light gold in color with a finger of dense white head. Looks good but a little lighter than I thought.
S: Very sweet with a nice dose of bitterness. Some piney notes with a hint of citrus.
T: a blanket of bitterness that gives way to some piney flavors with a touch of grapefruit. Some caramely sweetness as well keeps things in check. Plenty of hops on the back end with a final bitter punch that gives way to a lingering piney aftertaste.
M: A little heavy but this is a high gravity brew. Carbonation is enough to let you know it's there without being over the top or flat. a solid mouthfeel for sure.
D: this bomber is gonna go down without any issues. I kinda wish I had another one.

Overall: Good but not great. I needed a hop fix and a decent amount of alcohol. I'd buy it again and it tastes good enough that I'll probably buy it again if I find it.

EDIT: this beer is kinda sneaky. I was feeling fine and now the alcohol is starting to kick in.

4.1/5  rDev +12%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5

Appearance - This is a deep copper gold in color with a big, gigantic head that showed great retention.

Smell - There's a nice, juicy caramel malt backbone to this DIPA along with big, monstrous citrus hops. This is huge but rightly balanced.

Taste - The sharp, intense citrus notes are mixed with sweet, caramel-laden sugars that just explode with flavor in the mouth. The malts are very sweet and sugary and have a high quality character to them. The hops are large and in charge but not overpowering.

Mouthfeel - This is medium-bodied with some nice, light carbs and a collected but serious bitter character.

Drinkability - This is a big but approachable hopper that is chewy and quite fun to drink.

A: Pours out the color of frozen honey. Highly opaque Frothy off white head fades to large patchy bubbles.

S: Starts off very malty. Smells a lot like breakfast pastries, scones, croissants, tea biscuits. There is a heavy hop undertone, but it's very muted - typical aromas of pine and grapefruit. Some bubblegum and rock candy. Fruits like figs and dates.

T: Very well balanced. Oily hops up front initially, big pine and spoiled orange juice. Malts fill in big, very similar to the aroma. Lots of sweetness, sugary plums, dates, and grapes. There is that hint of bubblegum, too.

M: Medium to full bodied with a syrupy smoothness.

D: These is a hefty beer. Thoroughly enjoyable, but a knockout in all aspects.

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

Poured from a 330ml bottle into a pint glass. Had a best by date of Feb '11 on the label. Was a hazy amber color with lots of carb streams. It had an average sized head that settled into a good collar and some wisps. Good quick sliding lace but none sticking.

The aroma was piney hops with some citric as well and slight toffee malt. Was really good aroma when first poured but then quickly faded to average. The taste was good as well with the bitter piney hops leading the way. Some malt to balance but it's a moderately bitter hop show. Good but didn't leave an impression in a crowded ADIPA field. Full mouthfeel with too much carbonation for me. OK aftertaste.

Overall, a good ADIPA but didn't stand out. Good bitter bite but not overly bitter so liked it for that as a bitter hop trainer. Recommend if you can easily get. Avail here in TX. Rotation - the occasional single to work on the bitter hop palette. [O;O;BHT]

My first time with this brew, and my first BA review.

Poured from 11.2oz. bottle into DFH signature glass.

As soon as I cracked this one open a pungent aroma rushed out. More so than other brews. Quite startling, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Sort of a nice preview of things to come.

An aggressive pour left a nice three finger head, off-white/cream colored.

Very malty aroma after the pour. Nice hop bite to it with a decent malt backbone that balances nicely. In fact, this is seems to be an extremely well balanced IIPA. Slight citrus notes and some earthy flavors. Quite drinkable, I could put back a few of these with no issue. Surprisingly a challenge to find the 9.2%ABV.

This isn't an overly complex or developed IIPA, but there is enough depth to it to make me look forward to another. Picked up a 4 pack at about $13 from a local store. The price will keep this from being a regular purchase for me. Will consider it a decent import treat a few times a year.

Keeping a few bottles cellared for a few more months. Eager to see how it changes.

Sampled on 10/1/2010. This Imperial India Pale Ale pours a medium orange gold color from a 660ml bottle. Best before 2/2/2010. Medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is fruity and sweet, with a some floral hops. A medium bodied Imperial IPA. The malts are fruity and sweet, caramel, touch of pineapple. The hops are herbal and piney. There is a little age on this bottle so it's starting to make that morph to a barley wine. The hop character is going away, but there is still a really nice hop profile as the malts start coming up. A touch of orange. A little sweet at the finish. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.

A: Cloudy, orange, no head.

S: Really malty, not citrus, a bit of brown sugar.

T: Lots of English/Scottish hops, very alcoholic, no fruit. Barley is nice and strong. There are some mega hops in this. Has a nice bitter aftertaste with a little sugar. Very toasty malt.

M: Chewy, thick, medium-heavy body, good carbonation. Rather astringent. This is great for the style.

D: Thickness and richness hinder drinkability. So does the alcohol content. Definitely good on its own, but a little rich to drink with a meal.

Best By Date February 2010; Sampled January 2010
A solid pour into my 25cl tulip glass produces a two finger thick, light tan colored head. The beer is a pale copper color that shows a hazed, gold-copper hue when held up to the light. The aroma smells of crushed, lightly caramelized, pale malt, some earthy hops, an interesting sort of cinnamon like malt character, some light citrusy hop notes and some stronger hop notes of menthol, pine, and almost rosemary like herbal notes. The aroma is definitely quite malt focused for something labled and IPA, in fact it took a while for me to even notice the hops.

Lightly sweet up front, with a light, though noticeable hop bitterness that lingers through to the finish, but is very faint for an IPA. The hops contribute flavors of ruby-red-grapefruit, a mix of citrus oil and hemp, an almost cheesy hop character, some herbal notes as well as a touch of pine sap and even some menthol like notes. The finish has a nice biscuit like malt character to it as well as some caramelized crystal malt like flavors that are a bit more pronounced than I would expect in a beer that is this light in color. The hop character is quite a bit more pronounced in the flavor than in the aroma, it even manages to be the dominant note, but it still doesn't seem like much of an IPA and certainly doesn't approach anything close to hardcore. I can only assume that this just hasn't traveled well across the Atlantic; and not knowing how they date there bottles I don't actually know how old this is. Wow, I just realized this is supposed to be a Double IPA, I had no idea it was 9% alcohol...

Brew Dog Hardcore Imperial IPA

Appearance: Cloudy light-orange, medium head, and some good lacing.

Smell: Hops and subtle malts.

Taste: Strong malty hops, slight caramel in the backbone, and a slight alcohol tinge.

Mouthfeel: Medium-heavy and slightly syrupy.

Overall:
The first taste is a malty hop blast. Hops scream out, but they have good flavor.

a- remarkably clear for the ABV. excellent deep amber color. nice off white head, with great head retention. - especially for the style, the high ABV beer always have lame head stability.

s- smells more like a barley wine than an IPA. has that booze filled aroma. almost no hoppiness in the smell, (I aged this bottle a good while before drinking it.)

t- good bitterness. again booziness is very apparent. I am kind of bummed its not an IPA. I feel this beer was mislabled. Its is a well crafted barley wine. With well used booze content, bitterness, and complex malty flavors.

m+d= full mouthfeel. still tastes young even though I aged it personally for what I thought was a good amount of time. 6-8 months. could last another 1-2+ years more.

Drank this one at the Brewdog dinner hosted by James Watt at Beerbistro. A pleasant DIPA.

Pours a deep amber with orange highlights and a finger of off-white head that leaft some nice lace streaks. Tropical nose, with lychee, pineapple and grapefruit, along with a definite streak of pine and biscuit base.

Big bitter flavour delivers on the hops. The pine is more prominent, as is grapefruit pith, though the tropical fruit notes never completely go away. All of this is supported by a good biscuit base, which provides a nice springboard to showcase the hops. Medium body and carbonation.

A really satisfying and meaty DIPA.

Interesting bottle...I opened the kegerator to be eagerly greeted by Brewdog Imperial IPA, but before I uncapped it, I began to read the label:

"This little bottle has a grandiloquent story to tell.

2,204 malted Maris Otter grains gave all they had to offer the world to provide the robustly delicate toffee malt canvas for the ensuing epic.

6 Hop Cones willingly sacrificed themselves in fiery cauldron that is our brew kettle to ensure your mouth is left feeling punished and puckering for more.

9,900,000,000 yeast cells frantically fermented their little hearts out as the sugars were magically turned into alcohol in the dark depths of our fermentation tanks.

This explicit ale has more hops and bitterness that any other beer brewed in the UK. This is an extreme beer rollercoaster for freaks, gypsies and international chess superstars."

Really? First, these numbers seem ridiculous. This sounds like the work of a crafty marketing department, but I question the accuracy. Did they consult with a brewer?

Being an engineer and a homebrewer, I had no choice but to double-check Brewdog's numbers:

By my calculations, to brew a beer at 9.2% ABV, assuming 70% efficiency and single malt (Maris Otter), you need just under 4.75 oz. of malt per 12 oz. of wort. There are 460 grains in a Troy oz., which is an outdated Roman unit of measure based on one grain being that of barley. With 1 Troy oz. equaling 1.097 standard ounces, you get ~2490 grains per bottle.

And this isn't a single-malt beer, so it's reasonable to assume that the discrepancy is in the Crystal and Caramalts. Touche, Brewdog. I was wrong to doubt you. I'll assume if you got the hard calculation correct, that the hops and yeast, which look reasonable, are correct as well.

Anyway, fellas, enough math. Serve it up. Let's see these 2200 grains do their worst.

A: Pours glassy, crystal amber with orange tinges and ruby shadows, giving rise to a full tree-finger head that almost overflowes my New Belgium snifter. The head is creamy and ivory, and leaves nice lacing on the glass.

S: Wow. The nose is strong, piney hops, some background sweetness and some esters. Sticky desert pine. Pears. Molasses.

T: The flavor is a dead ringer to my expectations - lots of Centennial hops give an aggressive bite over a sticky malt backbone. Strong alcohol is well hidden in the piney hops. This is delicious.

M: Puckeringly astringent.

D: This is a fine beer, but with the hops coating my palette and the alcohol burning my brain, I wouldn't have more than one in a night.

I don't usually do a complete re-review of a beer, but because of 1) a change in the recipe, 2) higher praise for the beer since the recipe change, and 3) a reasonable $3.49 for a 330 ml bottle of DIPA (and imported too!), it's time I revisit a living nightmare that scarred me almost two years ago. On to the beer:

Even the color is different. I described this as a "pale cloudy witbier-like blonde color", but now it's a dark reddish-orange color with somewhat creamy foam and dotty lacing. The nose is a difference maker as well. It smells like a less intense Pliny the Elder. Tropical aromas comes out, hinting pineapple, passionfruit, then a barrage of fresh pine, with rye-like spiciness and crackery malt at the base. I'm getting excited.

Bitter and hoppy. It's more hoppy this time around, whereby my previous experience was an herbal mess. A little cracker malt first, then comes those little green cones. Pine creeps out and explodes onto the palate. Faint flavors of citrus and tangerine breeze in. All this is done while the alcohol is buried. With a "best by" date of February 15, 2011, it's sitting pretty.

What a turnaround. Yes, I was the guy who rated this a 1.95, and now it's going to double that. I can gladly call it a pleasant DIPA from Scotland.

Best by 26/07/11 on bottle.

A - A dark, cloudy amber with traces of orange. Pours with a small head that leaves lacing all over the glass. Exactly what I want this style to look like.

S - Fruity hops right up front; mostly citrus but also carries scents of fruits not usually found in IPAs such as raspberry. You can discern a bit of malt in the background of this one as well.

T - A blast of bitter, American hops. Followed by sweet caramel and a tingle that signals the departure of this hop-laden beverage from your mouth. Somehow they managed to bring out the frutiness and the earthiness of the hops in this brew, far more complex than many other DIPAs I have tried.

M - It is a thick liquid which seems quite a bit lighter due to the higher carbonation in the beer. The tingle from the hops are a love/hate juxtaposition in the mouthfeel and drinkability.

D - It's a DIPA at 9.2%, a person can only handle so much of this stuff. I love the Centennial/Columbus/Simcoe hop bill so much I could get really carried away with a few of these. The only thing that hurts this beer overall is the high price. But it's still cheaper than many bombers of comparable DIPA.

3.85/5  rDev +5.2%
look: 3 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

Appearance: Pours a somewhat orange amber, with a similarly hued one-finger head. After the pour, there's virtually no bubble activity from the bottom of the glass.

Smell: The hops jump out at you, as you would expect. The centennial and Columbus hops provide a hint of citrus, but it's not as extreme as, say, a Smuttynose Finest Kind.

Taste: The hops attack at first, and the citrus notes ride the crushing wave of bitterness into the back of your mouth. It then mellows, though, and finishes surprisingly balanced - particularly as it warms a bit. I find the journey of the IPA interesting: born in England, it went across the pond for some schooling (and perhaps to hit the weight room and toughen up a bit), and now it's come back home (presumably to flex its hoppy biceps while bending elbows at the pub).

Mouthfeel: Nothing to nitpick here - medium carbonation works well for this style.

Drinkability: The beer makes no particular effort to hide the ABV; the full frontal hops assault just makes it somewhat secondary in importance. The surprisingly balanced finish, though, makes this one impressively drinkable considering its overall aggressiveness.

11.2oz bottle. Batch 072 with a Best Before Date of 28/03/11. Pours a pale hazy orange with no head. Odd aroma. Smells like alcohol, malt and somewhat sour. The taste is also kind of sour and malty. Not much bitterness to speak of. I guess its drinkable but there really isn't a whole lot going on here. Not much flavor for an Imperial IPA. I dont really like this beer. If this beer is an Imperial IPA, I am sober.

330 ML bottle into a globe glass

A-- Poured an orange carmel color. Dirty eggshell white one finger head. No real visible carbonation after original pour. A little bit of head retention on swirl and noticeable legs from the ABV.

S-- Caramelized orange mixed with lemon, pine and grapefruit. The Caramelized orange smell stands out in a big way.

T-- Pine and grapefruit taste. Not massive or over the top, but enough to say hello.

M-- Lots and lots of grapefruit in the mouth. Just touches of pine menthol in the background. Very bitter and ripe grapefruit. Not that much carmel sweetness in the mouth though. Very fruit forward. Lower medium carbonation.

D-- Very drinkable and pretty well made. ABV is well hidden and can have 2 in a sitting. I thought needed a bit more carmel to offset the bitterness but that is more my palate than anything else. Have now found 2 Brewdog beers I would buy again. Cheaper than almost all Australian craft for this style.

This reminds me of a very lemony mixed drink. I see where the IPA exists, and it's big enough to fit the double/imperial bill, but I'm getting so much citrus alongside the hops. There's a smokiness to the scent as well. This isn't sneaky with letting you know it packs an alcoholic punch but it doesn't need to be, since the flavors carry across the alcoholic acidity... in fact, they play along with it. Not much head but a great caramel color and lacing left willy-nilly along the glass. I expected a lot from Brew Dog after watching some of their videos, and I am not disappointed.
