Bottle from Sam's Quik Shop. Pours hazy orange with a small off-white head. Aroma is citrus, caramel, resin.... maybe a little stale smelling. Flavor is citrus, chocolate, pine, resin, caramel. A bit stale tasting... strange.

So, I drive to North Carolina only to get a bottle of west coast IPA? WTF? Smells crisp and rather hop bitter, if you can believe that. Hazy and I thought west coast IPA was not hazy? Nice rocky head. Big and bitter, even with a date of 10/6/15 on the label. Yes, its big nasty Nellie ride on your tongue bitter. Really like chewing on green grapefruit rinds that were soaked in turpentine. Wewwie. Long bitter ipa hop finish that borders on imperial status. Too much for this lagerdog. Mouth coating oily sensations all round. If you enjoy this style, ignore my numbers, terribly on style.
