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

Poured into oversized ale mikasa glass.

A- Clearish golden hay with slight orange hue. Some rocky/ fluffy head, great lacing.

S- Fresh hop burst. Tangy and piney hops with some tropical fruit sweetness. Awesome.

T- Very hop forward with little malt presence. Piney and citrus hops (grapefruit). Light body that is crisp and rather dry. A zesty bitterness.

M- Medium in size. Bitterness is mild and lingering. Not overpowering. Semi-coating, light on palate.

D- No alc, would have guessed 5%. Extremely easy to drink. A great beer if you want just hops. I have to stop myself from trying to drink more.

3 week old bottle.

Pouring down the middle of a snifter reveals not much white head and a clear golden body.

Hops are the name of the game in the aroma. There is a slightly evident bready malt backbone and some alcohol vapors that mix well with the fruity hop aromas of orange, grapefruit, peach, mango and pine.

Fairly big bitterness here with prevalent grapefruit and resinous flavors. The hops linger in the aftertaste. Bready and sweet malt. Slight alcohol presence in the taste and warming sensation. Medium bodied and some lighter carbonation. A sipper of a beer for sure.

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
