Lean crackery malt, elevated carbonation and a dry finish let bright organic hops from New Zealand shine with notes of guava, grapefruit zest, Sauvignon Blanc, green tea, and woody herbs.

Excellent, classic-style DIPA! There's no haze in this brewery. Extra notch because it was bottled in November.

Keg at the brewery with Adam D. at the GTMW pre-parties, 8/9/24. Hazy yellow, medium white head, average retention. Aroma of tropical fruit, grapefruit, pale malt. Taste is grapefruit, pine, lime, tropical fruit, pale malt. Nice.

On tap at Giant Jones, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma has lots of bright piney hops, gentle dankness, and oily resin, with subtle melon in back. Flavour is bitter and bright, with lots of piney hops, a touch of resins, and a crisp biscuity malt base. Crisp, piney, dry; well-constructed, just my kind of bitter, blonde and definitely-not-remotely-hazy DIPA. Excellent.

The Aromas are caramel malt, funk, and a little hops. Flavors are a little sweet up front with a bit of hop flavor and some bitterness coming on into the Finish. A little boozy at the end there too with decent carbonation and body. Nothing special about it though.

Pour is a clear golden with a average white head. Aroma is a nice citrus with orange the main focus. Flavor is honeydew melon with some sweet caramel malt. Finish is clean and refreshing. Decent IPA with a decent hop profile bit it is a bit sweet

From a 50 cl. bottle it is a clear effervescent golden color with an off white head. The Aroma is citrus and hints of tropical fruit. The taste is strong with hints of pineapple that resonates on the palates
