Rice helps this beer ferment dry to better showcase the five different hops we use. We then dry hop with generous amounts of Chinook and Citra to create a nose that hints at tangerine, mango, papaya and pine.

Bottle at Sander’s in NYC. Pours clear gold with a foamy white head. Nose has lots of pine, heavy pale malts, light anise, ripe grapefruit. Medium to big sweet flavor, some alcohol punch, floral and piney hops, mild bitter grass. Full bodied with fine to average carbonation. Quite sweet to finish, some sugary pale malts, more flowers, pine, white bread, grapefruit. Not bad.

Bottle at the BNA 8 party at World Cafe Live Philadelphia Light gold with a smallish head. Nice caramel malt against lots of pine and resin. Nice IPA.

12oz bottle pours crystal clear gold with a thin white head. The aroma offers up citrus hop extract malt sweetened grapefruit and tangerine. The taste begins with sugary malt sweetened grapefruit mixing with a brown bread or brown rice sensation. It then gets a bit bitter with citrus hops as the hop richness grows to midway and into the finish. I love hop extract! Nice stuff.

Capone’s, Norristown sixer: Pours amber with a whitish head. Aroma is citrus, with a bunch of peach, and some other fruits. Taste is bitter and very fruity. I don’t really know where the rice is coming from or what it is doing, but mostly this is just a complex, but easy drinking DIPA that has very flavorful hops and a nicely balanced malt backbone.

Tap. Pours clear light amber with a small white head that dissipates with some lacing. Aroma is pine, citrus, mango, caramel. Flavor is the same, fruity, tropical. Light sweet, medium bitter, some warming on the bitter finish. Medium body, slightly oily texture.

Bottle from Wine Source, Baltimore. Golden with a decent, off-white head. Sweet aromas of mango, pineapple, spice and grains. Flavour began with some sweetness, more tropical fruit, rice, a touch of pine and dryish finish. Excellent.

12oz bottle. Filtered golden-tan., big steady white head. Some mellow tropical hop aromas, very modern, nice. A pretty solid IIPA, the rice really adds some character to the body. Classic piny grapefruit NW hops tones, but also some nice tropical action as well. Quite an enjoyable, well executed beer. Nails it as far as I’m concerned.

Pours clear golden color with white head. Floral hop and grapefruit aroma with some biscuit malts. Grassy and citrus flavor with slight malt sweetness and moderate bitterness. Light body for a DIPA. Decent.

Tap at OBF. Pours hazy orange gold with a slight white head. Aroma seems fruit/resin/floral. Med body. Flavor seems to match aroma and there’s a firm caramel backbone. This is very NW style. Extremely tasty.

750 ml bottle into tulip, no bottle date. Pours slightly cloudy and hazy golden amber color with a fairly dense 2 finger white head with nice retention that reduces to a thin lacing cap. A decent amount of lacing sticks to the glass as well. Aromas of huge orange, grapefruit, lemon, pine, caramel, tropical fruit, and spices. Some awesome IPA aromas here with good strength and balance. Taste of huge orange, grapefruit, pineapple, pine, caramel, and a bit of spices. Wow, so much well balanced and hoppy flavor. A bit of lingering bitterness on the finish with caramel, citrus, and pine notes. Fantastically well balanced with perfect contrast between bitterness and sweetness. Medium carbonation and medium-full bodied. A nice and fairly creamy mouthfeel as well. Super smooth and easy to drink for being 8.2%. No alcohol noticed other than a slight warming after the finish. Overall, an outstanding DIPA, and my first from Flying Fish. I guess the rice lightened up the body a bit and made this fantastic.
