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.
ABV: 9%
MALT: Pilsner, Flaked Wheat, C-15, Dextrine, Dextrose

Bodney towers tasting. Thanks to Leighton for the can. Hazy orange beer, bubbly pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, semi dry, modest fine carbonation. Smooth and sweet malts, light creamy sweetness. Pine and sweet tropical fruits. Mild ripe orange peel. Little sweet grapefruit and pine on the finish. Smooth and fruity finish. Nice, richly fruity.

As NE IPAs go, this one is almost clear--just a light haze to this golden-yellow concoction, which has lots of floating bits. Small to no head. Aroma has tropical and citrus fruit notes. The flavor is pretty dry, with citrus and tropical fruit, some pine-hop bitterness in the background, and a goodly amount of resin. It's a fairly bitter beer on the whole, but tasty nonetheless.

Very cloudy light amber golden color. Very dry nose with cracker malts and papaya with a touch of citrus. Very light body, slightly dank with decent mouth feel but not so characterful. It was ok.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated 10/31/2016. Aroma is full of over ripe tropical fruit, pineapple, and resin with some light citrus notes. Hints of grain and wheat along with a bit of alcohol. Pours a somewhat hazy golden orange with a medium sized, moderately thick, white head that recedes steadily to the edges where it lingers for a bit. No lacing and medium small legs. Flavor is somewhat sweet with light grain notes and a bit of wheat. Medium high bitterness with some light alcohol notes. Moderate hop notes with overripe stone fruit, mango and pineapple. Some light citrus notes and some resin. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice DIPA. Nice hop profile with a malt presence that adds sweetness but doesn’t get in the way of the hops. Bitterness is present, but its not over the top.

Thank you Mathieu87 + PriorL for the effort! Can sampled @ Samson en Geert Bierproef Avond. Fresh - few weeks old. Dark orange, little white head. Nose is dank orange, citrus, zest, low marihuana. Taste is mellow, lightly milky, yeasty, green grass, marihuana, weird herbal, onion, green vegetables. Milkier feel & green vegetables tie it together with Summer Street as least favourite Trillium’s so far out 15. They are both still good beers, definitely pleasant to drink. Stupidly solid brewery. Body is milky yeast, zest, onion & grass.
