To see the hop cone up close, we zoomed in microscopic, and found a hi-res view. In Hi-Resolution, the hop optic was magnified; our perception, fully amplified. It’s microscopic. It’s telescopic. It’s off-topic. It’s Mad Science.
Let’s talk optics. The study of light, and the eyeball… aka the prism that sends images blasting through your dome like a movie projector. As technology advances, resolution increases, so we can see the bigger picture AND the finer details. We’re increasing the view -- in BOTH directions… Magnify the hop factor, amplify perception. Study the hop cone up close… this shiz is Hi-Resolution. We went microscopic; we got a grander view. Crack a HI-RES and widen your scope, both directions.
With massive amounts of late-addition, new-age hops, HI-RES magnifies juicy hop character to the limits of human perception, testing your palate’s ability to comprehend the tiny particles in hops, and the insane flavors they produce.

Rcvd in trade.
The appearance is a golden yellow to amber colored body with a two finger white foamy head. There is a light lacing that displays a white color and clings slightly.
The smell has a super citrus bittersweetness.
The taste is bittersweet all the way through with a super nice juicy citrus aftertaste that leaves a dry finish.
The palate sits about a medium on the body with a decent sessionability that wants to gulp not sip which leads me to say: 11 % really? I don’t see it, wow. Carbonation sits just right on the mouth and tongue as its harsh enough to display the proper characteristics of a pretty good DIPA.
Overall, wow, Sixpoint, I would say you guys knocked this one outa the park! Way to go, wish I could get this in my distro, but hey I’ll take it again if ever offered.

fat Tre små rum. Jävligt mjuk och komplex doft . Otroligt mjuk fyllig smak av päron och mogna äpplen . Samma eftersmak. En av de bästa och oerhört imponerad.

Can. Orange-lime malt and pine/grapefruit peel aroma. Slightly hazy golden yellow with giant off-white head. Sweet lime/orange malt and moderately bitter grapefruit peel flavor. Love the malt flavor. Thank you very much, Sixpoint, for putting this in a 12 ounce can and not a bomber.

Can sample at Beer Market Jaffa. Thanks Ariel. Hazy deep golden with a white head. Lovely hoppy aroma full of tropical fruits, pine and some supporting malt. Flavor has some sweet chewy malt, a bit caramelly, nice tropical fruits hoppiness and a bitter finish, piney and a bit herbal. Medium-bodied. Very nice and easy-drinking for 11.1%.

Can. Pours a clear gold with a big head and aromas of oranges, spruce trees and lemon. Flavor is hoppy with fruit and resin and a load of sugar left behind by the yeast. Abv is warm and nicely balanced and mouthfeel is sticky. Not sure why but I am a little underwhelmed by this one. It’s good but I guess I was hoping for more.
