Loaded with a ridiculous amounts of hops, the Chopdank is full bodied and high in ABV. Orange in hue like its little bro Nanticoke Nectar, this brew is unmistakably hoppy on the nose. Not overly bitter, the first wave has notes reminiscent of pineapple and melon that transition into citrus and intense grapefruit. Eventually finishing with a slightly piney bitterness.

16oz can from Tavour. Light copper colored pour, small but sturdy frothy white head. Big hop assault in the aroma, piney and dank, caramel. Bitterness strikes early in the taste, sweet, herbaceous, malty. Booziness is in there too, a little obscured by the abundance of hops. Apt name for this brew.

32oz crowler pours a translucent dark gold with some sudsy white head. Big resinous nose, pine, herbs, sweet too with honey and a little caramel. Flavor is a Hop Slam rip off, big honey and malt, big pine and grapefruit. Full bodied, sweet and bitter finish.

Can thanks to Dennis. Pours a clear orange gold with small frothy off white head that lasts. The aroma is strong dank, grapefruit pith, resin. Medium body, juicy, dank, nice bitterness, oily, very good.

Thanks Bobby.
This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a semi-bronzed amber color with a decent transparency about it. Thin white foamy head quickly dissipated.
The smell had the danky sweet onion over top of a nice sweet caramel backbone.
The taste had the sweet danky onion up front. Caramel backbone was there - semi sweet, but lasting. Lingering bitterness in the aftertaste. Wet sweet onion to sweet malty finish, different yet enjoyable.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium in body with a nice sipping quality about it. Carbonation rides fairly low on this one. Bitterness shows a nice bite and yet the caramel malt wants to show a decent balance. Good, sticky, but not cloying.
Overall, really nice DIPA, just all around, would I have this again, of course I would!

Nice spelling, solidfunk! Draft at Churchkey courtesy of GenDV138 and Ed. Aroma is fruity pine. Taste is bitter pine resin, more bitter than I like.

Awesome, and surprising. Very piney with a dose of citrus. A little bit of florals. Great balance, with steady malt backbone. Pours amber with good head and lacing. The two beers I had from these guys at Meridian Pint were both spot-on, and hope to see more from them. Tap.
