Apr. '17. On tap at Leopold's, Split. It poured quite a hazy orange body with medium sized head. Aroma of candy and honey malt with somewhat fruity and citrus hoppy tweak. Flavor was lightly bitter with decent, light hop profile, fruity as well, nicely balanced with sweeter biscuit and honey malts. A bit of vegetables to wet hay near the end. Medium bodied with long finish which was predominately dry, herbal bitter but also malty, following the flavor and aroma. A fine beer, I was not that amazed by some others but it's a well made, simplish IIPA.

500mL bottle, pours a cloudy dark orange with a large beige head. Nose brings out lots of earthy hops, some yeasty notes and biscuity malt. Flavour brings out earthy hops upfront, with some hop resins, light pine, and caramel malt. Chewy on the malt bill and earthy in the hop department. Not exactly to my tastes for a IIPA, but it certainly is put together well. Solid.
