Pours a slightly hazy golden/amber color with a thin head. There is only a minimal amount of lacing as the beer goes down. Aroma is wonderful - on the surface - a bouquet of lime, pineapple and grapefruit, while there is a hint of pine resin lurking beneath. A detect a wisp of something slightly powdery or soapy as well. The beer seems surprisingly light for a DIPA - especially given the ABV. This is actually a huge plus. As for the flavor, it is quite dry and straightforward. Pleasantly bitter. It's very good, but not bursting with citrus flavor or teeming with hop resin as the aroma suggests it might be. I am certain this is fresh as well. Solid, but not my fav. DIPA.

look: 4.5 | smell: 4.75 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 4.25

12oz bottle with no date served into a glass chalice

great look to it: unfiltered, hazy-orange, very fine sediment throughout. Smell is Very Fruity: pureed mangos and peaches with a pine backbone. taste follows, but with less fruit and more pine/wood, peppery/biscuity malt, and finishing very bitter with lingering spice.

top-tier, but can't quite beat sucks/hopslam/abrasive. spizy stuff
