Bottle from rabbott, bottled 2/15/16, drunk 3/17/16.
Big, off-white head atop shows strong retention. Light amber-to-copper body shows great clarity and low carbonation visible.
Varied citrus zest, apples, light pineapple and some juicy pine are actually pretty well-restrained on the resin. At the start of the glass, though the beer is still too cold, there’s no sign of the abv, though maybe just a touch of perfume-like alcohol as it starts to warm. Not exactly bursting forth with hop aromatics, but digging deep in to the nose, there’s some canteloupe and light watermelon mixing with pale malts to give a deep fruit juiciness.
Diving in to the glass, the first sip shows lots of orange, caramel and heavily drying pine-mixed-with-alcohol on the finish. Continued sips show more alcohol, light sourness, caramel, increasing bitterness and really not much to enjoy other than the malty texture and mostly engaging carbonation. It does seem like there are remnants of watermelon and other juicy fruits, so I’ll give it some credit there and assume that must have been more enjoyable when fresh, but conversely, this would have been punishingly boozey and resinous when extremely fresh. So again, I’m more a fan of letting 3F’s beer sit for about a month, even if that means missing out on some of the more volatile hop compounds.
With more warming, it continues to get boozier and boozier, the alcohol even loosening up the texture and yet heavily drying the finish. Can barely make it through a glass. I’d try it again when really fresh, on principle, but I’m confident there’s no amount of (hypothetical) fruity/juicy hops that can cover up this heavy citrus, sour resin and intense alcohol. Just no need for this much alcohol.

Draft at Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2014 - Session 3. Pours clear gold with a white cream head. Good dank hop nose, with ripe papaya, orange, tangerine. Big sweet flavour, with lots of rich and juicy hops, more citrus, tropical fruits. Medium to full bodied with average carbonation. Heavy resins in the finish, with moderate piney bitterness, buckets of dank fruits. Very solid overall.

Bottle. Golden body with a frothy, off-white head. Aroma of peach, apricot, toasted grain, tropical fruits, citrus, orange. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes moderately sweet and lightly to moderately bitter. Medium body, velvety/sticky texture, lively carbonation. Big fruit taste of peach, orange juice, citrus. Only slightly hot in the finish. Sweet for an imperial IPA (unless I kept the bottle too long). Otherwise, good stuff.

GABF 2015. copper color with a white head. Sweet, hop juice and sweet malt. High alcohol is noticeable. Hops are powerful but it is fairly well balanced by the sweet malt. an intense double ipa.
