holy hell...........easily the darkest brtown DIPA i have ever seen, it’s almost the color of a brown ale. HUge beige head, wicked sticky lacing on the glass. BOMBS of grapefruity hops, and citrus. An absolute assault on my tastebuds. NOt much balance here, just a hop BOMB! Its so hoppy i’m getting licorice notes in the finish, unreal how hoppy this is. For a hop head who doesnt care about balance, this is your beer!

Bottle. Slight gusher. Orange brown color. Abundant aroma wth citric hops, red berries, pepper and mint, nutmeg. Alcoholic flavor, yet malty with loads of oily and citric hops, pepper, nutmeg and red berries. A hop bomb with some complexity.

Aus der Flasche im 2018-10 getrunken. Oj ja das ist klar ein IPA wo leider über die Jahre der Flaschenlagerung nur ein Hauch von Citrusaromen übrig geblieben ist und nur die sehr domminierde Hopfenbitterkeit bestimmt mir dieses Ale zu sehr.

22 ounce bottle. Pours a deep Amber orange color topped by medium sized frothy beige cap with nice lacing. Caramel malt and pine needle hop nose. First sip follows the nose. Sweet caramel malt is balanced by the big piney hoppiness. Notes of black pepper, biitter citrus peel and alcohol finish this DIPA nicely. Very drinkable.
