Tap at iBrew. My feeling about the 48 hop IPA they did was that it was a bit muddled. So unsurprisingly, the addition of another 7 hop types hasn't really helped. Unsurprisingly a bit murky. Aroma is a bit piney. Avalanche of hops has got rid of most of the hop flavour. Light caramel and light bitterness. Seems you can get too much of a good thing. Not bad, but one is enough.

On tap at Beer Keyaki, Spring 2014. A cloudy copper gold pour with a filmy nose. A muddled nose between hops & biscuit/crackers malts. Medium bodied with a zesty bitter mouthfeel. Decent taste but the hop notes are all over the place. Pretty good but not focused enough, disjointed, a kitchen sink type beer but well executed for all that.

Tap at 1020. Nose of stone fruit, peaches, oranges, some caramel and pine. Grassy flavor, resin, peaches, oranges. The hops are really all over the place. Very fruity and resiny. Interesting and kind of fun but super confused tasting. One is enough.
