Deep, dark copper and rich bronze coloured body that is relatively clear, all with a nice, thick, two to three centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of super dank (as expected), resinous hops with pineapple, pine, grass and very sticky sweet, syrupy notes with seemingly a lot of alcohol, too. Full-bodied; Very rich, sweet, syrupy and sticky flavours at first show the resin, fruit and hop notes with still a lot of bitterness left over along with a dry herbal and very malty flavour towards the end, with a bunch of alcohol and punch at the end, but the fruit still hits hard at the end and very tropically, too. Aftertaste shows the resin, alcohol and malt way more than anything else, but those tastes are pretty nice. Not much bitterness or alpha acids left from the hops, but the resin, syrup and tropical fruits are pungent in a good way. Overall, not a bad offering, just not great - but nice to try a local Imperial IPA that's fresh. I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Whole Foods in Tyson's Corner (Falls Church), Virginia on 25-January-2020 for US$2,99 sampled a day later at home in Washington on 26-January-2020.

Poured into a snifter showing dark honey amber with half a finger of clean white foam. The nose shows clean malts with a hint of clean pine. The palate is well carbonated and medium bodied. Flavors of very resinous pine with light hints of malt. Strong IPA finish.

~10oz pour at the brewery. Poured a clear copper yellow color, maybe more orange. With a nice lightly off-white head. Aroma was a lot of solid hop resin notes, blast of floral notes, juicy citrus. Flavor was about the same, but include some really nice malt backing, which cuts through some of the bitterness, but doesn’t lead to a lot of sweet, cloyingly boozy notes. The alcohol is there, but is masked very well. Solid.

Draft sample at Dominion Wine & Beer. Clear amber orange with off-white head. Aromas of tropical fruit, citrus, garlicky notes. Tastes of garlic, onion, citrus, tropical fruit, floral notes. Medium body with a dry finish. ABV is well masked. Better than I expected.
