Tap @ Boulder Strong Ale Fest 2013. Pours a burnt orange appearance with a cream colored head. Some fruits, lightly toasted malts, pineapple, and a fair amount of booze in the nose. The flavor is similarly quite strong with lots of tropical fruits and some solvent/ethanol notes. Not my favorite.

Tap at Strange - hazy burnished copper color - fairly decent head retention for the abv - aroma is sugar sweetness and strong tropical fruit - flavor is very sweet up front, with strong tropical notes of mango, orange, pineapple - strong alcohol flavor and a retro-nasal burn afterwards, followed by strong, lingering sweetness - given my experience with their last IIPA I should not be surprised, but I am still pretty sorry I ordered this.
