3 separate 750ml growlers on 3 separate days during the past week, filled at the brewery. Pours turbid, bright gold with an foamy, sticky lacing down the edges of the snifter. Aroma is a medley of grapefruit, pine resin, and white grape. Some hay.

What can I say about Mr. Hill’s IPA’s that I haven’t already typed before?? The flavor is balanced without becoming sweet, yet still supports the huge hop profile. Nelson Sauvin and Amarillo marry together so nicely. The pine and white grapes hints are just wonderful. The mouthfeel is soft and airy for a 8% ABV level. It actually drinks like it is a much lower gravity. Lovely.

Tap. Mule Bar, Winooski, VT. Super hazy, orange gold. Film of sticky white head. Nicely leggy. Nose has huge, grapefruit, orange flesh and rind. Behind the juice there’s a dank and oily hop leaf character. Touch of spice. Touch of lemon juice. Taste is more or less grapefruit juice with some added malty sweetness. Bright, juicy bitter. Stickiness on the lips. Mouthfeel is clean, and surprisingly dry. Stays the right side of juicy, mind. Finish is long, juicy, zesty, grapefruit juice bitter. Stupid easy drinking.

Thanks Dr Moll for sharing the growler! Poured into a snifter showing unfiltered cloudy yellow with spare white foam. The nose shows light pineapple. The palate is medium bodied and lightly carbonated. Flavors of orange zest with light grapefruit and a strong zesty grapefruit bitterness.
