Chill hazed golden rod with a fluffy off-white capping of frothy foam. Mega lots of lacing coats the glass in a solid sheeting with a few tiny holes dragged about.
Aroma is soft and dulled of sweeter grapefruity hops, some resinous qualities add some fresher tropical orangey pithyness and pineapple. Slender doughy malt backing. Its not super powerful on the nose, but its clean profile is quite nice.
Taste is tropically light, even, and leafy with a floral powdery dryish bitterness superseding the finish as it twists around effortlessly and lightly within pith of dull orange, some pineapple tang, and lots of sweet red grapefruit to keep a nice balance among its trpical nuances. The malt backing is favorably simple and bready.
Body is about medium, dryish and tropical, with floating hints to peels and piths, flowers and pits. Bitterness is tamed and welcomed with a tangy ease of sweetened grapefruityness that seems to be the main Sumpin' in this Little' Extra. Warms the tummy and throat a bit as it goes.
A solid Dbl. IPA and what I'd call a close cousin to Hop Stoopid and drinkable all the same.

Slightly hazy pour with a dark orange hue. Scent is of hop, malt and citrus. Taste continues this with a delicious equal balance. Lightish mouthfeel and the aftertaste that continues from the taste
