Heavy doses of Citra and Mosaic hops work together with Strata to lend resinous aromatics. Tropical and citrus fruit flavors of pineapple and orange. Light caramel malt sweetness with medium bitterness.

Mango and lots of sharp pine. Seems like some of their others I’ve had tonight are better but this is still quite good. Amber slightly hazy pour with ol lacing, not much head. Very bitter finish. Tap at brewpub.

On tap at Fat Head's Portland, pours a clear golden copper with a small white head. Aroma is fairly sweet, with notes of citrus hops, caramel bready malt and residual sweetness. Flavour is well-balanced, with lots of piney hops, some resin and sweet caramel bready malt. Fairly abrasive but in a good way. Very nice hop monster.

Draught @ Modern Times Festival of Dankness, San Diego, CA

Pours dark orange with a smooth head. Aroma of herbal hops, grassy notes, resin and caramel. Taste is smooth, grassy and herbal with some bitterness and harsh hoppiness. Finish is crisp, hoppy and bitter with some grassy and herbal notes. Pretty good malty and bitter IPA.

Sampled on draft at 3R6P this beer poured a dark orange color with a medium sized soapy off-white head that left good lacing. The aroma was bitter with intense citrus and pine. The flavor was very sweet, tangy and bitter with strong pine, resin and cactus. Very long bitter finish with lingering pine. Moderately full bodied. Very nice.
