Poured from 355mL can. Clear, copper brown with off-white head. Mild resinous hops, a little vegetable and subtle sweet malt, quite a bitter finish. Flavour dissipates a little quickly though.

Can. Lightly funky orange malt and orange peel/pine aroma. Cooper with small head. Sweet earthy orange malt and moderately bitter grapefruit peel flavor. Good body. Pretty tasty.

Can: Dark copper with a tall, tan head. Aroma is caramel, breadheel.... Taste is sticky, piney, caramel malt... Oily, woody hopping.... Very malty.....thick-feeling.... Overload is a good descriptor for this one.

12 oz can poured. This thing exploded when I opened it for a reason that is still under investigation. Huge foamy head for days. There are two things that never get old to me, and that would be hoppy beers, and beers that have super clever pun names. 2 in 1! I love that. Though Mitch Hedberg once said, two in one makes no sense, because it would be overflowing, and the bottle would be all sticky and shit. This may explain why the can exploded with foam. Ah, it all makes sense now. Now on to the less important details. Beer pours a dark copper color. Super pine aroma. Flavor has a super sweet caramely side to it, which I wouldn’t always enjoy, but this one makes it work. High Abv, but drinks nice. Really good for cracking after 12 hours of work. Piney hops flavor will stick around forever. Not your ordinary in the style. The word overload in the name is a good word to describe this if you are only using one word. Now, I’m going to continue enjoying this beer, and listen to some Mitch. Overall, it’s pretty good.

Can from DeLaurenti, Seattle
Red-amber color with small head. Mild aroma, some vanilla, biscuit, malt, vegetables. Good body strength; some malt and caramel flavor, light vegetables, some woody tannins.
Strange.

12 oz. can, pours a clear amber with a medium off-white head. Aroma of candied sugar, resinous hops, caramel, and floral notes. Flavour brings out loads of woody resinous hops, earthy notes, and light candied sugar. Quite earthy and woody, with a nice balance. Finishes hoppy, with low astringency. Very nice stuff.

12 ounce can into tulip glass, no can dating. Pours lightly hazy deep orange/copper color with a 2 finger fairly dense light khaki head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Light spotty foamy lacing clings around the glass. Aromas of grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, lemon zest, orange peel, citrus rind, pine, floral, grass, caramel, bread, and floral/grassy earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good complexity and solid balance of citrus/pine hops and moderate dark malt sweetness; with decent strength. A bit too perfumy/piney with weak strength. Taste of grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, lemon zest, orange peel, citrus rind, floral, grass, pine, caramel, bread, and floral/grassy earthiness. Good amount of pine/citrus rind bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, lemon/orange zest, citrus rind, pine, caramel, bread, and floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Nice complexity and balance of citrus/pine hops and moderate dark malt sweetness; with a great bitterness/sweetness balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Medium carbonation and medium-full bodied; with a smooth and fairly creamy/sticky mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is well hidden with only a slight warming present after the finish. Overall this is a nice DIPA. Good complexity and balance of citrus/pine hops and moderate dark malt sweetness; and very smooth to sip on for the ABV. A nicely enjoyable offering.

Location: Draft at Monk's Pub, 7/8/14

Aroma: The nose is pretty full flavored, lots of grapefruit, some resin, and a bit of caramel
Appearance: It pours an unclear orange-amber color with an off-white colored head
Flavor: The flavor is along the same line, resiny bitterness with some malty sweetness as well
Palate: The body is medium-plus, with a pretty solid mouthfeel, and a touch of heat
Overall Impression: It seems like so long ago that I was drinking this beer and watching Germany absolutely destroy Brazil. Hard to believe that was only July 8th. What a crazy game! As for the beer, this one is plenty solid. Worth checking out.

12oz can pours with a clear yet deep ruby red to amber body that supports a thin off white head. The aroma offers up resiny pine hops first and foremost and then it gets into sort of red apple mixed with mild notes of earthy tea and cherry like fruitiness. The taste starts with firm resiny bitter pine hops riding on a sea of various sweet malt notes to slightly crystal malt sweetness. To midway hints of fruity esters are considered amid all the pine hoppiness just as a sliver of earthy tea murmurs thinly to the surface. Rereading this it doesn’t seem all the appealing but it pulls it off with largely resiny pine hoppiness that’s tempered by various sweet notes. Nice.
