UPPER CASE has a delicate, dry pilsner malt character with a smooth, soft, doughy mouthfeel from the raw wheat, oily hop resin which all serves as a canvas for this twice dry hopped 9% double IPA. Overipe mango, pineapple and passion fruit aromas leap out as the beer is poured. The impression of tropical fruit also takes the lead in the flavor which is layered further by white wine, pine resin and grapefruit zest. Hopped primarily with Mosaic with supporting roles played by Galaxy, Citra and Columbus.

Thanks Zack for the can! Poured into a snifter showing hazy brownish orange with half a finger of quickly dissipating tanned foam. The nose shows big notes of dank cannabis with hints of guava. The palate is well carbonated and full bodied. Rich flavors of orange and papaya intermixing with the malts very well. Light bitterness on the finish with a resurgence of dank cannabis on the end.

Pours hazy gold into a tulip. Bright white soapy head with good retention recedes leaving spider lacing. Garlic, tangerine and mango aromas. Soft with mango, guava and papaya front to back. Lasting soft pineapple and resin finish.

Bottle. It pours a hazy light yellow/orange color with a small but creamy white head. The aroma is potent with fruity grapefruit and mango. Maybe some lime and melon with background notes of grass. Super hoppy with barely noticeable pale malts. The flavor is the same. Mostly fruity hops with tropical mango, melon, grapefruit, lime and grass. Medium grassy bitterness. The mouthfeel is full and creamy, but still not much maltiness. The flaked wheat comes through in the full body, which hides any hop related astringency. The alcohol is well hidden. A hop lovers dream.

This beer pours a hazy orange color with a medium off-white head that diminishes steadily to a film. Short strings of lacing on the glass. The aroma is hoppy with citrus, pine and malt notes. Medium to full body with flavors of grapefruit, tangerine, hops and malt. The finish is moderately bitter with a tropical fruit and hops aftertaste. Good beer all around.

Bottle. Pours cloudy orange, large off-white creamy head, slow to dissipate with thick clumpy lacing. Aroma is really dank, piney, some citrus, cat piss. pot. Flavor is light sweet, light plus bitter, hugely fruity and dank, faint finish of green tea. Medium body, creamy mouthfeel. Touch of heat.
