Mosaic hops are the star of this single-hopped composition. Diverse citrus, mango & papaya mingle with mysteriously pleasing bitterness balancing by the large grain bill. A few sips of this unique Double IPA will have you mouth watering and your mind wandering...

Can. Pours a slightly hazy light orange with a near white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma has earthy citrus and grass with a bit of light grains underlying. Flavor has lots of grass with light onion and earthy citrus supporting.

22 ounce bottle into tulip glass; no bottle dating, but is a recent release. Pours slight hazy deep orange/copper color with a 1-2 finger dense and fluffy off white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of huge tangerine, grapefruit, peach, pineapple, apricot, mango, melon, passion fruit, papaya, lemon/orange peel, berry, light pepper, pine, caramel, brown sugar, light toffee, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Fantastic aromas with awesome complexity and balance of juicy/dank citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate malt sweetness; with great strength. Taste of huge tangerine, grapefruit, peach, pineapple, apricot, mango, melon, passion fruit, papaya, lemon/orange peel, berry, light pepper, pine, caramel, brown sugar, light toffee, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Moderate pine/citrus rind/herbal/spicy bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of tangerine, grapefruit, peach, pineapple, apricot, mango, melon, passion fruit, papaya, lemon/orange rind, pine, caramel, brown sugar, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of juicy/dank citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate malt sweetness; with a great malt/bitterness balance; and minimal lingering hop astringency after the finish. Light-moderate dryness from bitterness, increasing through the glass. Medium carbonation and medium-full body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/sticky/resinous, and lightly slick balanced mouthfeel that is nice. Very well hidden alcohol, with only a light warmth lingering after the finish. Overall this is an incredible DIPA! All around outstanding complexity, robustness, and balance of juicy/dank citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate malt sweetness; very smooth and easy to drink for the big ABV. A highly enjoyable offering.
