From a 500ml bottle on 3/3/2016 Bottle says 9%, 84IBU). Pours a clear golden with a small to medium head. Has a nice strong aroma of tropical and stone fruit. This presents as a big beer on the first sip. Not hugely malty, it’s starts out as an intensely sweet fruit bomb, with loads of pineapple, apricot, peach and mandarin. This sweet blast is met solidly by a big, sticky, resiny, citrussy hop bitterness which coats the mouth. The palate is touch syrupy and the carbonation soft. This is a really solid DIPA, which I’d be happy to return to.
