Sampler at brewery. The best way for me to describe this beer is sweet tropical hops trying to cover up rough alcohol edges. The alcohol can be seen as acetone-like but its just etoh. Sweaty, slick, oily fruit hops. Attenuated enough and no caramel. Moderate bitter finish. Dial this one down a tad to get rid of the etoh and its pretty damn awesome.

Draft pour at Special Brews. Pours a cloudy orange color with a quick fading head. Big wet hop aroma. Flavor is more the same. A ton of hop flavor with a long cool finish. A little boozy, but somewhat expected. Good beer here.

On tap at Brouwer's Cafe, pours an opaque dark orange with a small white head. Nose brings out notes of resinous hops, tropical fruits, and a touch of acetone. Flavour is intensely sweet, with a touch of acetone, along with cloyingly sweet sugar, some nice fruitiness and buried resinous hops. Another jumbled mess of a triple IPA. Smells good, but the flavour is way off.

Draft - Lots of pine and some skunk. Cloudy copper with a decent white head. Sweet and lots of tropical fruit. Little bitter and a little booze, but not bad.
