This hop monster uses Premium American 2– Row and a touch of light crystal malt to create a solid malt foundation. Five different Hop Varieties are used in the Hop Juice. Now dry hopped with Mosaic for great aroma. Starts out sweet and finishes with the crisp bitterness of a Triple IPA.

Refrigerated 12 oz. brown bottle poured into a glass. Hazy light orange with small white head. Aroma is herbal hops, medium body, low carbonation, and very little lacing. Taste is herbal hips and bitter finish.

From a 355ml bottle on 18/4/2015. Pours a cloudy apricot with a small head. The nose features caramel malt, some fruity hops and honey. In the mouth, you get a big caramel malt backbone, mandarin, peach, apricot, honey, grapefruit and a hint of pepper. The hops are big, sticky and resiny. The palate is creamy and the carbonation soft. On first sip, I wasn’t entirely sold, but as it warmed, the complexity and balance became increasingly evident. Very nice indeed.

On tap at The Local Taphouse. Pours clear amber. The aroma clearly states "yup, I’m an IIPA" with its flowery sweetness. The taste feels challenged by that and punches you with a nice combo of sweet bitterness. Punchy and strong, nothing to hide. Almost too much.

Draft at Taps Beer Bar, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a crystal clear medium amber with a frothy white head and some broken lace. The aroma is big woody citrus fruit hop. The flavour is strong bitter with a resin woody alcoholic hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

Small bottle. Golden amber with a white head. Aroma of grapefruit, some pine and herbs, light caramel and cookies. Very sweet light toffee but bitterness kicks in almost straight away. More than grapefruit than pine, oranges and hints of tropical fruit.. Dries out enough to keep it drinkable and not so sweet that hops aromatics are occluded. They stick around awhile. Alcohol sticks out a little at the end too. Not especially memorable but pleasant enough.

22 oz bottle. Deep orange amber with a small but dense off-white head. Big malty carmelized aroma and flavor. Muted hop notes, like it had "aged" and toned down. I was expecting a much bigger hop presence.
