4.33/5  rDev +1.4%
look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

a: cloudy orange with foamy white 2 finger head

s: tropical fruit galore. especially grapefruit, mango, orange

t: loads of citrusy hops. some piney bitterness there too.

m: med body & carbonation.

o: Great collaboration with FFF. Aroma is top notch and the taste is right there with it. I'd put it under Galactic DDC but it is still a great IPA I hope to have a chance again to try next year.

3.31/5  rDev -22.5%
look: 2 | smell: 2.5 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.25 | overall: 3.5

On tap at Very Nice. Pours a hazy orange/copper with diminishing tan head, some lacing. Aroma is bitter, fruity and floral hops, hints of pine. Taste is nice and hoppy up front, then fades to a gentle sweetness provided by the honey. Moderate carbonation and medium body with a slightly oily finish. An interesting IPA

You sure this is a "Single" IPA? Absolutely gorgeous appearance: amber-gold hue beneath thick, frothy, white head. Sticky lace, stubborn retention across the board.

Malty, bready aroma is enjoyable but too subtle. Gimme the blast of fruity hops I crave!

Fortunately, the taste delivers. Fresh hops spring to life and push back against a surprisingly prominent malt backbone. What? Strongly malty? In a *Single* IPA?! Yeah, man -- this is a blueprint for how the style should be brewed. Pleasant (read: mild) traces of hop resin remain after swallowing. Deserves a 4.25, rounding up.

Thick, creamy body is arguably the best I've ever had from a Single IPA. I'm rating to the style, but seriously: this brew must be mis-categorized. Regardless, this is quite tasty and deserving of praise. I'm ready for another bottle.

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

The beer appears transparent and light orange colored with a huge, fluffy white head. The aroma offers oranges, nectarines, hops, a touch of biscuit malt. The flavor is hop forward, with tangy citrus leading the way. Lingering bitterness in the finish, with a light alcoholic warmth. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. A solid IPA.
