This Double IPA includes Mosaic and Simcoe hops, South American specialty malt, and tons of tastiness. Looks like liquid gold, smells like a bright tropical fruit pine forest, and tastes like all that and more.

Pour is a hazy blonde with a large white head. Aroma is a fruity hop but also more of a big green onion. Flavor is some mosaic fruit hop but here comes more onion. The onion goes aways after it warms a little and also more of the mosaic comes out. The brewer does not put a date on the can so this may be really old for all I know. As it sits this is just ok.

Can. Deep gold with a white head. Fine but character-free aroma of vague citrus, mango, some passionfruit, a little pine, light bread. Lightish bodied for 8%, medium high carbonation. Clean, so clean. Less sweet than expected, but the malt presence is sufficient if dull. Yes, lots of fruit and some pine. Bitterness is medium to high. It's probably unfair to give an ordinary score to something that really I've no complaint about, but it's just so generic.

Can at Columbus. Thank to tipple. It pours clear piss yellow with a thick foamy white head. The aroma is fresh, bright, zesty, clean, creamy, light spice, lemongrass, hay and spice. The taste is dry, clean, bitter, crisp, lemongrass, grass, peppery spice, metallic twang, warming alcohol and earth with a drying finish. Medium body and high, foamy carbonation. Not bad.
