Reviewed from notes.
Can to tulip.
Appearance: copper color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: orange peel, tangerine, light pine, extra citrusy hoppiness, nice clean malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a nice West coast bittersweetness with those malts making a strong presence; finishes semi-citrusy, piney and malty
Texture: medium bodied, great sipper; some smoothness but always the West coast bitterness slides in for the assertiveness I expected it to do
Overall: great West coast styled DIPA worthy of coming back to.

Grapefruit and citrus. Pretty rich in hops, citrus even carries over into taste. Golden amber pour with good head and lacing. Bitter finish with plenty of juicy hop tang. Manages the latter without any cloying aftertaste. Tap at Apex.

Tap @ Mikkeller Beer Celebration Tokyo, Yellow Session. Creamy orange pour. Nose is fruity, nice clean and promising a decent hop kick. Tastes surprisingly smooth, creamy fruity body is well balanced with super fresh hop character, piney and resiny but really well balanced,so you don's almost feel the alcohol at all. Pretty amazing that with this ABV it is possible to brew so smooth and smashable beer. Dangerous.
