growler shared at CCB. Holy yeast floaters in this growler but the beer remained delicious. pours cloudy golden/orange, white head, loads of sediments aroma is loaded with hops, citrus grapefruit, lots of fresh hops, light malt and caramel. Flavors, holy tastyness, haven’t been that impressed by DIPA since Alpine’s Exponential Hoppiness. Bitterness is subdued and not overpowering, yet finely crafted into this beer leaving a perfect balance with the caramel and malts. Tons of tropical fruits; from grapefruit to pineapple, peach, palate similar to NZ hops? Only downside is the whole sediments in the growler adding a mild overly yeasty mouthfeel. Treacherous, doesn’t drink like 9.5%, but damn this is outstanding.

Growler thanks to someone at Stone’s Sourfest. Pours with a hazed brown body and a tan head. Aroma is hoppy, herbal, citrus and pine. Taste is very hoppy with citrus and herbal notes. Dry finish.
