Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: brassy copper color with some transparency and a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: big danky sweet oniony to earthy and hemp-like tones with piney hops, orangey hop tones and grassy hop tones; light clean malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to bittersweet and danky sweet oily quality; finishes earthy/hemp danky and piney
Texture: medium bodied, this is a sipper for sure; smooth but quite dry and somewhat oily on the tongue
Overall: good for what it but I'm not super big on the hemp/weedy-like beers or the overdone ones at least and gets close to that border.

Sweet, piney and resinous with hints of dankness, grass, caramel malt, booze and floral hoppiness. Easy drinking but a bit heavy

Aromas are slightly old resin, malt, a bit of citrus and taffy. Flavors are similar to nose and bittersweet. Okay body and carbonation. Not much sign of alcohol.

From US. Dark golden colour, mid-sized white head. Pine and resin in the nose. Medium-bodied. Pine, resin and some caramalt, a bit of fruityness. Balanced, resiny, old schoolish. Good.

A purchase at the local beer place, thank you Terry. Deschutes, the home of Abyss, is cranking out DIPAs now? Life is good. And it’s a stovepipe can? All I can say is value, baby, value. I have a Belgian chalice out from a previous tasting, yeah it will do. The pour is a clear pale yellow completed by a light skim of totally white foam. I smell pine cones, grass and yellow fruit. And the drink is rather swell. Definitely a throwback IPA with lots of hoppy bitterness, lemons, white bread, malt, a caramel sweetness, a touch of herb and the accompanying dankness. Not what I’d call a hop bomb like Hop Stoopid or Elevation but in the neighborhood. I am transported to an appreciated time.

Hazy gold, small white head. Piney bready nose. Big dank profile, harsh alcohol heat. Big bodied with a harsh unpleasant bitterness from hops and alcohol. Far too boozy

Imperial pint can (arguably excessive). Clear amber with a large near white head. 3+ Pretty reserved aroma with mango, pine, caramel. Medium bodied. Opens up in the taste with more citrus and pine, sweet breadcrust or bun meeting the mango. Can feel the alcohol a bit towards the fairly bitter finish. Doesn't do enough to justify its strength but it's pretty good.
