I've wanted to take this classic on for some time now...and I wasn't disappointed! Wow, I love the look of this beer! It makes me feel like I better buckle up! Everything about the look is bad ass, but the unfiltered snow globe in the glass is awesome! Smell and taste don't knock you out of your chair, but the feel is "Stone Ruination like", palate wrecker! This feels like a DIPA!

look: 4.25 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.25
A: Golden with a very slight orange tinge and very little cloudiness, low carbonation, a finger of off white slight sandy beach tinge, fades to a foam that lingers.
S: Floral, fruity, caramel, pine, hot red pepper, black licorice.
T: White grape fruit with lots of pith, pine, caramel, licorce, hot red pepper, follows nose really well. The alcohol is well hidden, with a little burning presence of it on the back of the tongue.
M: Medium thick body, somewhat bready and syrupy, but smooth finnish, little bitter grapefruit pith linger, little carbonation but enough to smooth it out.
O: A delicious representation of this style. Reminds me a lot of a double IPA, perhaps due to its weight in body and taste and alcohol, but its not quite there at a double. Would go well with spicy food, or enjoyed as I am on a hot day in Kunming China.
