Into a pint glass and a nonic (nothing changed between the two):

A: hazy orange/amber body with a large foamy off-white head that lasts for a good portion of the brew. Clingy foamy lacing graces the sides of the glass.

S: hops, pine, and citrus up front, malts come in as the beer warms.

T: sweet yet bitter at different times ranging between the hops/pine/citrus to the malts, very balanced.

M: medium and has a nice creaminess around the tongue, harshness is a bit to be desired. I'd say this is very sessionable, ABV not felt. It leaves a watery aftertaste and finish.

O: solid AIPA that I would come back to, perhaps a bit different in the mouthfeel than most AIPA's that I've had, just goes to say this one could be better in the summer months.

What in the Sam Hill? What in the same hill?... Raul is just done doggone perplexed. What is this bad boi?

Right when I popped the can, it smelled like Osirus. Raul was all stoked. But the flavor... Raul is like, "UHH!" But Raul is also like, "huh?" It's good like Robert DeNiro, but it's also bad like Robert DeNiro. Well, maybe not "bad," but, "huh?"

Try it like a tootsie pop my children, because if not, you may never know.

Bengali Tiger pours a burnt-orange hue, with a mountainous, off-white head of froth. The head on this beast billows out so much during a power pour you'd think it was a Belgian Tripel. Great retention, too. The aroma was nice and zesty , consisting mostly of grapefruit. Flavor wise, there was a nice lemon & pine hop taste that was fairly straight forward. The finish gave me an orange bitterness, which I liked. This is a very light beer, and I did not get much of a malt backbone coming through at all, despite my expectations. Overall, the name's misleading, this is more of a tame, feminine type of beer for a summer's day. Conveniently in a can!
