Tap at Cap Tap, Pours darkly translucent orange gold with a white head. Aroma is citrus dank. Med ++ body. Flavor is oh so dank - and it’s mostly pale stone and mixed tropical fruits. Think citrus is there - but sort of submerge. This is dank, hoppy and incredibly fruity. Almost dry. Bitter? Could be - but hoppy/dank is so strong bitter isn’t really an issue. Very intense flavors. Mind boggling.

Keg at City Beer - SF. With the RBWG 2016 A Team. Pours deep gold with a creamy, white head. Deep and dank and resinous in the nose, with pine and ripe citrus. Medium sweet flavour, moderately boozy, with dried bread, oily pine, orange, bitter citrus rind. Medium to full bodied with fine to average carbonation. Warming finish, resinous and piney, with more bready malts, orange, melon. Good one. Drinks nicely given the heady ABV.

Poured up on tap at the original Toronado where it exhibits a crystal clear pure copper body that supports a thin off white head of foam. The aroma is thick sticky warm pine hop resin, a bit of floral hops and then some citrus grapefruit and clementine like hoppiness at the end of the draw. The taste is thick and smooth and bitter with resiny hops that are pine and somewhat grapefruit like and then getting a little more mango and cantaloupe adding a dash of juiciness toward the finish. It remains firmly bitter with hops and thick and chewy and sticky from front to back.
