Excellent IIPA. Huge amount of malt to stand up to the bold hops and yet balanced.

Bottle shared. Thanks Gregg! Lovely honey and orange marmalade nose with some earthy notes in the background. Well-balanced and has a big malt profile on the palate. Doesn’t feel overly heavy, but very drinkable. More orange marmalade character. At first a harsh bitterness, but mellows out substantially as it warms. Good stuff. --- Beer merged from original tick of Chillwave Double IPA on 29 Sep 2016 at 21:34 - Score: 7. Original review text: Lovely honey and orange nose. Well-balanced. Great.

Pours deep orange, closing on amber maybe. Aroma is not really floral or fruit - hops are more from the earthy and slightly harsher side. For some reason reminds me Põhjala’s Põhja Konn. Body is malty, nicely fragrant - which is unusual for such a big beer - and masterfully balanced with the earthy hop profile. Glad I could try this!

Draught at Jet Rock Bar and Grill in Terminal B of PHL. Overt citrus aroma. Sweet malt, pine and citrus taste. Lots of residual pine.

Bottle 35,5 cl. Pours a clear, deep golden with a white head. Piney, turpentine aroma. Rich, sweet, malty body with nice, tropical hops. Bitter finish but not to any extreme degree. Smooth and easygoing. 240516

Bottle. Pours a clear orange with medium frothy off white head that lasts. The aroma is dank, floral, pine, grapefruit. Medium mouth, juicy, mango, dank, lingering resin finish, very nice.
