Bottle 650ml @ My parent's place

22 ounce bottle into tulip glass, no bottle dating. Pours very hazy medium orange/amber color with a 1-2 finger dense and rocky cream colored head with awesome retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Nice dense soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big grapefruit, tangerine, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, mango, melon, papaya, citrus peel/rind, peppercorn, pine, honey, toasted biscuit, light caramel, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. A bit too malty/muddy aromas. Nice aromas with good balance and complexity of citrus/fruity/earthy hops, honey, and bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big grapefruit, tangerine, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, mango, melon, papaya, citrus peel/rind, peppercorn, pine, honey, toasted biscuit, light caramel, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel/rind, herbal, floral, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of grapefruit, tangerine, lemon, peach, pear, pineapple, apricot, mango, melon, papaya, citrus peel/rind, peppercorn, pine, honey, toasted biscuit, light caramel, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/earthy hops, honey, and bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness. Medium carbonation and medium-full body; with a very smooth, creamy/bready/grainy/sticky, and fairly resinous/rindy balanced mouthfeel that is great. Minimal warming alcohol for 10.1%. Overall this is a delicious DIPA. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/earthy hops, honey, and bready malt flavors; very smooth and dangerously easy to sip on for the big ABV, with the modestly bitter/resinous/drying finish; not overly aggressive. Very juicy, dank, and earthy hop complexity; with balanced honey/bready malts. Not overly sweet/heavy from lingering dryness. A very enjoyable offering, and well made style example. Their farm hops always feel pretty classic/old school on flavors.

Bottle from Brewery Creek, Vancouver
Hazy amber colour. Nice aroma, very malty, with sweet oranges and sweat. Good body strength, malty flavour, some caramel, too sweet; orange hops, candied peel.
Remembering that this is 10%, not too bad.

$9.99 bomber from Total Wine in Gainesville, VA. Pours hazy orange with a soft beige head. Aroma is floral hops, heavy resin, citrus. Too resiny in the nose for my liking. Flavor is bitter citrus peel: grapefruit and orange, caramel, resin, pine, honey, herbal/medicinal notes big time, soap, dandelion. I think this is over the top.
