wow. pretty orange beer, big hop aromas of mango, pineapple, and orange. followed by a huge hoppy blast of mango, pineapple, orange and grapefruit. lots of caramel malt, sweet, thick and a little syrupy but not cloying at all, with a very nice bitterness throughout, dry finish.

great beer, very drinkable considering the abv. cant wait to open my 32oz growler saturday, last nites 10oz tulip was more than enough (along with 2 slam dunkels) for a weeknite.

outstanding. will have to try the crooked tree for comparison.

Serving type: on-tap

Poured a golden orange with brownish red tints on top of one-finger head that died slow and left lace. Citric, even grape hop aromas come out and there is some floral notes as well but not overly hoppy nor do malts come out too much in nose. I must say that for a DIPA w/ the ABV hit this thing carries it definitely hides the alcohol. Medium-bodied and smooth, the citric and floral hops come out nicely and there is a bready chewiness and sweet malt (and even touch of sweet fruit flavor) that are balanced and make it a large tasting beer. Finishes dry and crisp but with no alkie burn and this is a dangerous sipper.
