To celebrate Halloween each year we combine and scale up two of our favorite Double IPAs, Digitox and Double Apparition. This Triple IPA named Poltergeist is straw yellow in color, has a silky smooth mouthfeel, and is fed with huge whirlpool additions and our largest double dry hop to date, all with Galaxy, Citra, Nelson Sauvin, and Mosaic. Aromas of lemon zest, mango, and fresh squeezed orange juice give way to flavors of overripe peach, pineapple, mango, white wine grape, and hints of lemongrass. Incredibly smooth and super hop saturated for the ABV, attempt this haunted juice at your own risk, it is not for the casual trick or treater.

Pours very hazy pale yellow with a lingering white head and lacing. Smells of tropical fruit, peaches, and booze. Flavor is moderately bitter, malty, and citrusy with some pine coming through in the finish. Full bodied.

Can from Matt: pours orange haze with white head. Aroma is citrusy and tropical fruit. Taste is kind of boozy, sweet, fruity, low bitterness. Fine.

Can (10/14/21) pour. It's an opaque orange juice with no sparkle, finger-width white foamy head with fair retention and light lacing. Aroma is strong grapefruit, white grape, herbal. Taste is strong sweet fruit over bit of isopropyl alcohol. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with thick, grainy texture, average-to-fizzy carbonation, crisp finish. Overall, Citra is underrepresented or has faded but others represented well in aroma; less so in flavor. Alcohol peeks through. Some nice qualities but flaws.
