Wtf is this batched? It's a different beer each time. Vol. 3 will be an alias of one of the earlier editions but it's not a fucking batch. Now I have to unpack this shit.
Bright, pale gold. Toasty malt, biscuits, the hops being a resinous pine thing, maybe with a touch of grapefruit.

Glass shared with Josh and Phill during a mini-trip organized to help carless Phill pick up his Tavour bottles, some of which had been waiting for him for about a year, hehe.
Aroma: dank, bold, a bit citrusy.
Taste: very weird, extremely grassy and like a dried salted fish! Wtf?!
Overall: weird one.

Can from somewhere along our Oregon trail, possibly The Beer Mongers. Aroma is dank resinous hop with grapefruit, ripe orange, sturdy biscuity malt, with plenty of rich pine resin. Above moderate sweet flavour with a bitter finish. Body is above medium. Yes, wonderful big resinous hops and sweetish tropical fruits, tasty IIPA.

On Tap at the HorseBrass. Slightly hazy deep golden pour. Thin soapy sticky white head. Big sweet light malts and a firm hop precense. Fruity and tropical and fairly modest bitterness. A double for sure.

16oz shared with Josh @ Ryan's (thx for the beer, man!). Appearance: a bit hazy pale golden with a white head. Aroma: piney, a bit citrusy, with some light onion notes. Taste: along the same lines, bitter and resinous. Overall: good old-school IPA, but I don't appreciate this level of bitterness in my life 🥴.

Bronze, just a slight haze. Medium. The hops are assertive, with some onion, a bit of citrus, tropical notes. So quite a wild mix of hop characteristics. Sweetish base malt, slightly biscuity. Good balance on this one. The malts are slightly sweet, but help the hop come through, especially the grapefruit, which assets itself more on the palate than on the nose. Finish is balanced - alcohol noticeable but not assertive.
