Deep in the labs at TG, through the vaulted door, down the steps, and past the room labeled "Beware the Leopard" lies an experiment forgotten. For over a year it remained dormant, calculating the precise moment of return to unleash the ultimate blend of hops. Finally, escape! This unbridled force descends upon the unsuspecting Masses. Can you handle it?

From a 22 oz bottle shared at the March 2014 DC RB gathering. Pours a clear gold with an off white head. Weedy nose. Flavors of pine and grass. Fresh, crisp finish.

Bottle from Pepsi - thanks! Pours hazy butterscotch with a small white head and ok lacing. Aroma is dank, orange/citrus, mango, pine. Light sweet, fruity, light bitter. Medium body, oily mouthfeel, low carbonation. Not quite up to Blue, but not bad.

22oz bomber courtesy of Ryan and Peter. Another phenomenal APA from Toppling Goliath. Hazy orange body, big frothy, soapy head. Tangerine, mango, papaya..big tropical tones. A healthy does of the green onion, garlic thing going on too. Just an absolute pleasure to drink on, with fascinating hop nuances. I much prefer this one to the simultaneously released Blue. World Class. Really shows off the hops. Awesome stuff.
