Hops and hocks, Brooklyn can: pours hazy orange with a white head. Aroma is perfume, graefruit, other fruit, and a hint of booze. Taste is pretty bitter with a sweet but not too malty background. It is fruity but not super juicy as is the vogue now. Mellow and tingly and fluctuating aftertaste. Interesting enough.

Thanks Roger.
This was poured into a snifter.
The appearance was a cloudy to hazy burnt orange to yellow color with a slim finger’s worth of white foamy head hanging around the top for a nice minute and a half before dissipating.
The smell started off with bitter grapefruit rind bursting into silent sweet piney hops ever so slightly in the background. Dany sweet onion warms into it.
The taste was bittersweet all of the way through. Grapefruit displays more of a pulp flavor as it warms. Sweet danky onion again. Lingering semi-bitter to somewhat sweet aftertaste.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. The carbonation seemed adequate for the style and for me. Bitterness units hit just right for a DIPA.
Overall, what a wonderful DIPA that I would love to have again.

Tap at Rogue Island, Providence. It pours clear yellow / gold with a thick white head. The nose is fresh, bread, lemon-lime, limeade, pine, sherbet and some onion. The taste is crisp, rather bitter, underlying malty sweetness, quite a lot of onion character, spring onion, spice, grass, pine needles and dull citrus with a drying finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. The onion character puts me off quite a lot. Once you know it’s there, you can’t escape it... A shame.

Holy mama. This was just a pure pleasure. Almost session able. Dangerous stuff. Gorgeous aroma. Pine, citric, biscuits and tropical in a lovely balance. Looks great also. Cloudy yellow-ish color with a smashing head. Nice lacing. Solid body and a smooth carbonation. So easy to drink…Nice balanced sweetness versus bitterness. Citric, biscuits, mild tropical and pine. Unbelievable nice creamy texture. WOW! No information about brewing date. But I belive this one is quite fresh.

Can at home on a Sunday night. Hazy orange gold white head. Nose is tropical fruits and pine. Tastes of pineapple, oranges, grapefruit, mango, pine, doughy, some florals and straw. Nice semi sweet finish. A tasty brew for sure.

Pours hazy gold into a shaker. White head with medium retention recedes to hug rim. Sourdough and citrus aromas. Soft with bread earth and cooked vegetables upfront turning to bitter earth and pith in the lasting hot finish.

Pours a turbid copper from a can, lots of sediment. Aroma is of cut grass, general citrus, flavor settles in on grapefruit. I don’t pick up on any onion notes that others have, but I’m eating a cookie right now. Very good beer.
