A sneaky double IPA brewed with tangerine and dry-hopped with 6 lbs/bbl of juicy hops. Prominent notes of orange & tangerine supported by layers of tropical fruit and pine.

Can. An unclear golden beer with a lazing yellowish head. The aroma has notes of grapefruit, lemons, hops, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of hops, grapefruit, oranges, and malt, leading to a bitter finish

Can during the Fourth of July Parade in Worthington Hills. Hazy bronze-gold color with a medium thin white head that dissipates quickly to a sparse outer ring. Spotty lacing. Aroma of herbal hops, citrus and malt. Medium body with flavors of grapefruit, herbal hops, apricot and malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a grapefruity hop aftertaste. Above average overall.

Slightly hazy peach and bronze coloured body with a thick-ish two to three centimetre tall tan and off-white head. Aroma of super crisp and bitter citrus with grapefruit the strongest, along with some pure oranges, a dash of lemons and a good deal of higher alpha acid hops. Medium-bodied; Syrupy sweetness at first from honey and fruit-based sweetness with a big dash of bitterness from the citrus and the hops noticeable then right afterwards and show very strong. Aftertaste shows a ton of bitterness with a great balance of fruit and hops, all with a great backbone from malt. Quite a bit of the alcohol shows through near the end with a warming and slight astrigent bite, along with a pleasant sweetness at the tail end that makes it goes down quite easily. Overall, a nice and well-structured Imperial IPA with a ton of citrus notes, but balanced well with a lot of malts and shows some good fruit-based sugars as well throughout. Worth trying to find if you like 'New England Style' IPAs and can handle Imperial IPAs. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can purchased from Liqour Outlet in Boonton, New Jersey on 09-March-2018 for US$4,79 sampled at home in Washington on 12-April-2018. From the Bottom of the Can: 07-November-2017 (Brew Date?) // Purchased: 09-March-2018 // Sampled: 12-April-2018

Can from Top Shelf Beverage shared with friends. Pours a hazy straw with a finger of offwhite foam that lingers. Big dank nose, weed and lots of grapefruit. Very citrusy and dank on the palate. Can't get over how much flavor is still poppin' in this at 10 weeks old. Medium bitterness on the finish with lots of lingering grapefruit zest. A winner, but would have loved to have had fresh.

Lots of grapefruit circulating through this pint, along with strong lime essence and hints of orange and lemon. Not sure what’s from thebfruit and what’s from the hops, but the brew grows a tad sweet on the back end, not overly so but just enough to take the focus away from the IPA elements. Finishes dry and spicy with a lingering grapefruit bitterness. Citrus nose, cloudy yellow-gold pour with a moderate white head and loads o’ lace. Sparkly texture is good for the style, but overall I’m somewhat lukewarm to the pint.

16 ounce can. Slightly hazy, honey gold color. Frothy white head. Big citrus fruit aroma. Notes of orange and grapefruit. Bittersweet citrus fruit flavor. Light biscuit malt with a hint of butter. Warming alcohol notes as well. Notes of pink grapefruit and blood orange in finish. Sticky bittersweet aftertaste. Juicy and delicious.
