On tap at the brewery.
This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a thick pale orange color with a nice little cap of a white foamy head that fell off at a decent pace.
The aroma settled in on some smooth orange juice bitterness to sweet melon, somewhat like honeydew. Light floral to light herbal quality coming about as it warmed.
The flavor yielded to the sweetness at first and did a good job of melding the bitter portions of the orange juice to the melon. Barely any aftertaste, but a nice crisp sort of bittersweet orange to melon sort of finish.
The palate was about medium bodied with a nice smooth crisp sliding pillowy feel along my tongue. Carbonation and ABV felt good as projected by the brewer.
Overall, are these guys ever going to produce a bad DIPA? God, I hope not. Oh shut up, Adam, don’t jinx them.
