22oz bomber shared by Ben. Dank thick hop aroma. Juicy tropical tones, citrus. World Class, really big hop character. Remains highly drinkable. Very fresh.

22oz bomber courtesy of markwise. It pours with a clear copper body that has gold edges and supports a dirty white head. The aroma offers up cantaloupe, mango, resiny pine hops as well as malts and a bit of biscuit. The taste is nice and juicy with similar notes as noted in the nose such as mango and cantaloupe as well as fresh tangelo rolling quickly into pine hop resiny bitterness. This is a nice juicy yet pleasingly resiny brew.

Bottle - Vegetal and tropical fruit, mandarin with a bit booze. Floaties in gold with a rich white head. Tropical fruits and some earthy notes. Not bad but nothing special.

Bottle thanks to Homer!. Pours hazy orange with a medium creamy off-white head that dissipates slowly with good lacing. Aroma is dank, spruce, pine, passionfruit. Flavor is primarily passionfruit + pine, wet leaves, light sweet, medium bitter. A bit harsh on the finish. Medium body.
