Pours a hazy, orange-peach color, with big, fluffy head. Aroma is dank citrus. Flavor follows, with moderate hop bitterness at the finish. Soft mouthfeel. Really good.

Sampled from the tap at the brewery. Pours a cloudy earthy yellow with a white head that dissipates to the edges and laces slightly. Aroma has dank citrus with rind, onion and sweet grains supporting. Flavor has sweet onion and citrus rind with some dank citrus and sweet grain backing.

Pours unclear ( hazy) blonde to amber. Good to big, stable, rather creamy white head. Smell is rich, fruity, tropical more so than the expected straight citrussy Ness. Taste is full, tad bitter, very fresh, ‘green’ hoppyness with a great malty undertone. Well chosen yeast as well, giving it a desired mouthfeel and taste by its esters. At 8.2, this is dangerously drinkable.

Hazy appearance. Soft palate for the high alcohol. Lots of fruit, pineapple, peach, and citrus. Sweet. Good beer.

Crowler shared at Lucky Bamboo. Thanks Andrew and Aaron. Pours a hazy gold with a finger of foam. Lots of tropical fruit in the nose, mango, pineapple and citrus aromas. Smooth and pillowy mouthfeel on the palate. Sweet and fruity hop forward. Low bitterness on the finish. Very good and abv hidden well.

Can / growler [from trade with mista, thanks!] @ home. Opaque murky and actually quite ugly yellowish appearance, although the full sized quite dense long lasting white head makes up for the ugly color of the beer itself. Aroma and flavor both are full of hops, citra, slightly floral, kinda sweet. Lacks bitterness and sticky resinous or piney hops imo to be a good DIPA. Or at least, to be my kind of DIPA. Decent body, soft to average carbonation. So while I enjoy this beer (it's ok), in my opinion it's not very good as a DIPA.
