16oz can at Hops & Bottles. Dark golden pour clear, one finger creamy white head, streaky lacing. Aroma is fruity, caramel, orange. Taste is malty before a hoppy kick comes in, citrus, caramel. Not quite the hop bomb I'm used to from Knee Deep, but glad to have them back in market.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: copper color with a decent transparency about it, two finger white foamy head dissipated nicely to leave some light messy lace
Aroma: floral, citrusy, slight tropical fruity and slight piney hop character with some orange marmalade tones and a slight biscuity to caramel-ish maltiness
Flavor: blends the prior mentioned aromas to a nice bittersweet conglomeration and leading into a light aftertaste of piney to floral and citrusy hop character
Texture: medium bodied, nice sipper; medium carb, semi-smooth along tongue with subtle hop abrasion; finishes piney and floral hoppy
Overall: a nicely done WC styled DIPA I would bang again.

Can. Clear amber, 2cm white head lasts well. Aroma of grapefruit, pine, breadcrust. Sweet with a fair bit of caramel. But clean and not saggy with tenor register citrus oozing out towards a somewhat resinous bitter finish. A bit of a throwback but good all the same. Strongish for what it offers, but that's part of the style, right?

US Pint can from Kura’s Krafts US beer festival. Poured a clear medium amber colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is toffee caramel. The flavour is moderate sweet and bitter with a smooth, fresh, toffee apple, somewhat rich, hop bitter palate. Over medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.

Can from Beer Republic. Aroma is piney hops with citrus, grapefruit, biscuity malt, pine resin, touch of caramel. Flavour is bitter with a light sweetness. Medium body. A very classic bitter West Coast IIPA, piney and grapefruit hops, good.

Can, 0.457l. Aroma of ripe mango, citrus, melon, flowers and resin. Pours cloudy golden color with thin creamy off-white head, good lacing and sparkling appearance. Taste starts medium sweet caramelly, resinous and herbal, following is medicinal and bready, mouthfeel is spicy and astringent, while finish is heavy bitter. Medium to full body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Deep hoppy shot…

Can from Beer Republic. Clear golden, small, frothy, white head. Aroma of grapefruit peel, ripe mandarin, pineapple, pine nuts, flowers, melon, onion, vague herbs, dill. Taste has sweetish mandarin & pineapple, vague mango; turning quite bitter towards grapefruit, citrus peel & pine, bit herbal too over basic bready & biscuity maltiness. Resinous hoppy finish, very dry & bitter, grapefruit peel again and tonic water, still somewhere herbal-flowery too; hidden gin-like alcohol. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Classic IPA yet a tad more complex, very satisfyingly bitter.

Ein Traum im Glas, toller Schaum. Im Trunk mit ordentliche Bumps, ziemlich alkoholisch. Ansonsten recht erdig.
