Welcome back our boldly hoppy pal. Legendary Cascade hops mix-it-up with assertive Simcoe for a powerful, citrusy and earthy foundation that is galvanized with a big punch of fruity Citra. This IPA packs a hoppy wallop!

Bottled. Poured a lucid orange gold. Strong floral and resin aroma. Tastes like grapefruit. Guess you know that would be the hops.

Bottle at The Beer Bistro
Hazy, amber pour, with a big thick, sticky, eggshell head. Quite a nice aroma of pungent pine hops, with hints of citrus, but the pine dominates with a nice amount of chewy, bready malts. The mouthfeel is thick, and a little viscous, and the carb is quite soft. The finish is very piney, even a tad soapy. Some light citrus shows up, but is then vigorously beat down by more pine. A long heavy bitter finish, with huge pine, and soapy notes.

On tap at BrewDog Brum Fair imperial even though not overextensive. High alcohol well hidden and seems to be an easy drinking. Though it is not. Still good though.

Pours golden, white head. Aroma of floral hops. Taste has smooth hop elements, very dry for a west coast. Palate has floral notes. Very drinkable.

Draught @ City Hops (6/3/19). Clear light golden with large foamy off-white head, very faint citrus aroma, medium carbonation, medium bitter lightly citrusy taste with flowery hops, and coriander, thin smooth body, long finish. Very smooth and mellow.
