Brewed to test the Mettle of our loyal hopheads, this dank, full-bodied double IPA features intense dual additions of Amarillo and Galaxy. Bright aromatics of peach and nectarine fuse with flavors of tropical fruit and grapefruit on the palate. Accents of pine, resinous hop, and a clean bitterness reveal themselves on a smooth, dry finish.

Taste: lots and lots of tropical fruit juice, pineapple, papaya, overripe mango, pretty bitter, citrus, some alcohol, bit resinous.

Can, shared at Magic Rock. Really hazy, dark yellow. Trillium head. Nose has stewed pineapple. Green hop. Bit of a bubblegum yeast thing. Ripe and pulpy citrus. Taste is sweet and a little gluey. Turns pulpy, citric bitter. Medium to full body. Crisp carbonation. Long, pulpy bitter finish. Good, albeit a little hefty.

Hazy white amber color. Tons of biscuity malt character with just some white grapefruit character. Medium full body, slightly sweet some muscat, white grapefruit and buscuit. Slightly astringent and bitter. So well integrated. A bit boozy. So nice.

Can into a wineglass showing opaque dark orange with clean white lacing. The nose shows moderately intense mango, peach, and hints of papaya. The palate is medium bodied and highly carbonated. Flavors of moderately intense papaya with moderately intense malt backbone. Strong IPA bitterness on the finish.

Pours an opaque orange from a can. Aroma is resinous and citrus. Good beer, not overwhelming but pretty solid.

Bottle shared by Jack, thanks! Pours a cloudy light peachy yellow with white head that dissipates slowly to the edges. Aroma has bitter pine, resin and a bit of citrus with a sweet grain backbone. Flavor has more sweet citrus up front but finish is full of pine and has a touch of resin.
