Dark yellow in color with a hazy viscous look. Poured with a short white foam foam that reduced to a soapy cap. Slightly pungent, earthy floral aroma, with honey and sweet, sticky malt and a touch of pine and booze in the deep background. Resinous, dry, fine grainy feel that coats the tip of tongue but an oily, slightly creamy feel in the back of the mouth. Floral and herbal hop flavors seem to twist the tastebuds, although a sticky, honey sweet malty backbone shows its strength beneath. Finishes dryly with a lingering herbal and pine hop bitterness with a pleasant touch of booziness. Don't know that I've tried DIPA quite like this one.
