Poured into a tulip, the appearance was a fairly clear golden sort of color with a small light eggshell white sort of foamy head. Moderate lace.
The aroma had some lemon to citrus smooth sweet pulpiness, lemongrass, light pine, some Belgian yeasty/breadiness and a touch of floral qualities at the end.
The flavor had a nice blend of sweet to bitter. Performed a nice blend in the aftertaste that followed into the finish.
The palate was about medium bodied, maybe a touch under with a good sessionability about it. Nothing distracting as it came across somewhat smooth. Good carbonation and the ABV felt fine.
Overall, yes, I get it, one of those white IPA’s that seem somewhat elusive every now and again. I didn’t mind this one, perhaps again if handed a bottle.

22oz bomber pours with a hazy deep gold body that supports a near white head. The aroma offers up pear, apricot, pineapple and then some spicy grassy hops. The taste delivers sweetened fruity notes of pear, apricot and an apple tangerine like sensation. The hops hit midway with some bitterness blended into the sweet maltiness. Pretty nice. The hop bitterness balances out all of the sweetness going on here.

22 ounce bottle into tulip glass; no bottle dating, but is a recent release. Pours slightly hazy/cloudy golden amber color with a 2 finger dense and rocky off white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of big lemon, tangerine, grapefruit, juniper berry, pear, pineapple, apricot, lemon/orange peel, peppercorn, pine, coriander, clove, light banana/bubblegum, wheat, cracker, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Very nice aromas with good balance and complexity of citrus/pine hops, fruity/earthy yeast, spices, and moderate pale malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big lemon, tangerine, grapefruit, juniper berry, pear, pineapple, apricot, lemon/orange peel, peppercorn, pine, coriander, clove, light banana/bubblegum, wheat, cracker, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Good amount of pine/citrus rind/herbal bitterness, yeast spiciness, and slight fruit tartness on the finish; with lingering notes of lemon, tangerine, grapefruit, juniper berry, pear, pineapple, apricot, lemon/orange rind, peppercorn, pine, coriander, clove, herbal, grass, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a while. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/pine hops, fruity/earthy yeast, spices, and moderate pale malt flavors; with a nice malt/bitter/spiciness balance, and minimal lingering astringency after the finish. Moderate dryness from bitter/spiciness, increasing through the glass. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, fairly sticky/resinous, and lightly grainy/creamy balanced mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is very well hidden with only a light warmth lingering after the finish. Overall this is a very nice Belgian DIPA. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/pine hops, fruity/earthy yeast, spices, and moderate pale malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink for the big ABV. A very enjoyable offering.
