Heavy stuff here. Heavy good stuff. Pineapple and mango with lots of grapefruit peel. Amber pour with ok head and lacing. Very bitter finish. Tap at Churchkey.

Bottle pour at powder keg beer and chili festival. Aroma is hay, grass, herbs, pine/spruce. Appearance is cloudy yellow pour with finger width white head and nice lacing, no sparkle. Taste is mild corn chip with strong hop character--pleasantly bitter. Palate is light bodied with slick/slippery/silky texture (nice), average carbonation with long, wet, bitter finish felt at the back teeth. Overall, pretty much what you’d expect with strong hops but good variety to aroma.

This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a ruddy burnt orange to brown color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated at a nice pace. Lacing was fairly clingy with ringy foaminess gracing the sides of the tulip.
The smell started off with dried pine, dried mango, bitter orange rind, light honey, and a sticky sweet papaya to balance.
The taste had a pure bittersweet bliss running into the previously mentioned flavors and slapping around the hops creating the flavor on into the aftertaste in a fairly sticky sweet to bitter fashion.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium on the body with a nice semi-sticky bittersweet hoppiness clinging nicely to my tongue.
Overall, this was a really nice DIPA that I would definitely have again.

Pours hazy gold into a tulip. White head with medium retention recedes leaving spot lacing. Dusty caramel aromas. Thick, juicifruit upfront turning to tangerine in the syrupy resin finish.

12oz. bottle. Aroma is a metric ton of fruits; oranges, citrus pith, grape fruits and some green onion or scallion notes.

The flavor is bold hop flavors but showcasing juicy fruits. Pineapple, orange, grapefruit rind with a touch of pine. The body has just enough malt to not have it totally unbalanced. The texture is slick with mild resin toward the finish. Carbonation is normal with a medium body. This is just plain, tasty!

Hella thanks to Willrunforbeer for dropping this want lister on me! Yes its a bit old, but standing up really well. Pours cloudy orange with a medium white head, very creamy and leaves nice lacing on the glass. Aroma is pine, dankness, citrus, passionfruit. Flavor is the same, medium sweet with some of that malt backbone shining through with biscuit notes, light bitter. Full body, quite creamy. Clearly past its prime, but still nice. Can’t wait to grab this fresh next fall.

12 oz. bottle, sent from Glouglouburp (thanks a lot, Dany), pours a cloudy, solidly opaque orange with a medium white head. Nose is lovely, bringing out truckloads of rich resinous hops, a bit of tropical fruit, and a big solid caramel malt backbone. Flavour is divine, bringing out an extremely juicy flavour profile, with notes of resinous hops, grapefruit, citrus peel, and caramel malt to back. Superbly balanced, with just enough malt to give this a chewy mouthfeel that wonderfully compliments the big juicy, resinous hop profile. A supreme IIPA here.
