Golden straw with 2 fingers of off-white head that dissipates quickly. Excellent clarity and moderate carbonation.

Candied citrus, pineapple, papaya, tangerine and lemon. Thin candy sugar backbone with drops of caramel and toast. Dank resinous pine and lemon zest finishes it off.

Packed full of hops with just a tiny malt profile to balance things out. Very quaffable for 8.0% and a great value at $5.99/22oz bottle.

The color is a beautiful ruby orange with a finger of head.

The aroma is of tropical fruit, grapefruit, dank hoppiness, floral hops, herbacious hops, a bit of resin, and Simcoe pineyness. It’s a very refreshing aroma.

The flavor is of malt, then big grapefruit and some citrus peel. There's some pine and grassiness. The balance is just fantastic. It’s so well balanced.

The finish is clean, easy, and dry. It lingers a bit, but it doesn’t have a stickiness. It’s very dry however, but it has a lovely finish. Don’t get me wrong, it is quite bitter, but it’s exciting. Despite its ABV and bitterness, it is pretty easy to drink.

I really recommend this. This is up there with some of the best West Coast Double IPAs out there. For value, this is one of the best Double IPAs, or even beers in general, you can get at $5-6 a bomber.
