Deep copper and peach coloured body with a thinnish tan head. Aroma of resin, pine, grapefruit and a touch of tropical fruits. Medium-bodied; Resinous hoppy flavour at first with a big dose of grain, some citrus and grapefruit characteristics and a nice mellow sweetness near the end with the sugars playing out. Aftertaste is rich and full-bodied with the piney and assertive dank hops hitting hard and still finishing sweet. Overall, a nice Imperial IPA that hides the nearly 10% ABV well. Good to sample, especially on draught at the Brewpub! I sampled this five ounce pour on draught at Black Bottle Brew Pub in Fort Collins, Colorado on 05-June-2017 for US$2,25.

Whoa, this is some potent and astringent stuff - alternative to pin sol, indeed - I had another IIPA here that was not like this at all - what happened here? - astringent, sweet, and boozy throughout - the finish in particular is full of fusel alcohol burn and flavor - like fucking turpentine in the finish - ugh.

Tap @ Black Bottle. Pours a somewhat hazy, light orange appearance with a cream colored head. Tropical fruity, mango, pineapple, spicy, piney hoppy aroma. Slightly sweet, a bit bready, fairly fruity, pineapple, grapefruity, piney, slightly boozy, light solvent flavor. Ok.
