Big bright and juicy hop notes are the highlight in this smooth drinking beer. Generously hopped with Vic's Secret, Azacca & Columbus to provide a big citric nose that leads the way for this tasty double IPA.

Can: (label reads 8.9%....but doesn't mention being the double dry-hopped version...so I'll put it here.) Cloudy and particulate-laden light yellow with a thick slightly off-white head. Nice orange/tangerine aroma. Taste is piney, grapefruit-peel, orange malt. Good, steady bittering......a very smooth and soft 2IPA.

Nice hazy golden and light copper coloured body with a nice, three centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of super piney and resinous, very bitter hops with a lot of grass and herbal elements at play, along with a touch of medicinal, bitter scents. Medium-bodied; Extremely bitter, pungent flavour with a lot of very dry, herbal hop flavours along with a grassy, floral bite that lasts for quite a while and is purely one-dimensional. Some malt comes later on with a good balance, but absolutely no sweetness or complexity - this is just about the grassy, bitter hops with dry flavours all around and no depth. Aftertaste shows a good balance, but just very bitter and dry, with almost a pepper like finish with no sweetness, but there is also not much alcohol showing, either. Overall, a decent Imperial IPA that borders on being a traditional IPA, that shows a dry character and a distinct hop bite, but decidedly shows not much else. Nice to try and at least something different from an Imperial IPA! I sampled this sixteen ounce can purchased from Total Wine in Alexandria, Virginia on 31-May-2017 for US$4,36, sampled at home in Washington just two weeks later on 16-June-2017.

Can from Milk and Hops. Mostly clear golden-orange with a white head and coating, spotty lacework. Orange, lemon, and grapefruit. Pine, catty hops, and a little onion. Very clean flavor-wise, with strong maltiness up-front, and a crisp, bitter close. Crisp and dry mouthfeel. Soft carbonation, finishes with a tingle on the tongue. Nicely done.

16 oz can poured into a tulip. 8.9% ABV batch. No canning date but probably canned 3-4 weeks ago. Hazy orange with two fingers of off-white head. Tiny bits of sediment floaters. Nice lacing. Aromas of citrus fruit and peel, tropical fruit, floral, malt, a little alcohol. Tastes of tropical fruit, citrus, some alcohol, floral notes, a little pine. Medium body with a semi-dry finish. Pretty good but unfortunately it gets outshined by DC Brau’s Wings.
