12 oz bottle. Pours golden with a light haze and a white head. Strong piney aroma with floral and grapefruit hints. Flavor is strong in pine and grapefruit. Touch of hard candy. Definitely pretty good.

Poured up on tap at Rochester Tap Room (in MI) where it exhibits a clear copper body that supports a near white head. The aroma offers up malt sweetened pine hops, some mango and pineapple cotton candy into the end of the draw. The taste delivers firm levels of resiny pine hops and then some mango and pineapple. It becomes more mango and guava like toward the finish. Pretty nice with persistent levels of resiny hop bitterness.

Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy gold with a big, frothy head and aromas of booze, resin and honey. Flavor is a nice bitter crush (could have a bit more direction other than some muted resin tones) with malt sweetness that comes off as honey and an alcoholic burn. Not shabby.

12 ounce bottle into tulip glass, bottled on 2/23/2016. Pours lightly hazy golden amber color with a 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. Aromas of huge grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, berry, lemon zest, orange peel, light pepper, pine, cracker, bread, light honey, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Incredible aromas with awesome complexity and balance of juicy/dank citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate pale malt notes; with great strength. Taste of huge grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, berry, lemon zest, orange peel, light pepper, pine, cracker, bread, light honey, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Moderate pine/citrus rind/spicy bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, passion fruit, papaya, mango, melon, berry, lemon/orange peel, light pepper, pine, cracker, bread, and herbal/floral/grassy hop earthiness on the finish for a while. Incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of juicy/dank citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate pale malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance and zero astringent hop flavors after the finish. Light-moderate dryness from bitterness that increases through the glass. Medium carbonation and medium-full body; with a very smooth, moderately sticky/resinous, and fairly grainy/bready/creamy balanced mouthfeel that is great. Alcohol is very well hidden with only a small warmth lingering after the finish. Overall this is an incredible DIPA! All around fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of juicy/dank citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate pale malt flavors; and very smooth and easy to drink for the big ABV. Very well attenuated and not overly sweet on the malt character considering the ABV as well. A highly enjoyable offering.
