Draft @ 17th Bistro Double IPA Festival, Hayward, CA. Pours a golden color with a small white head. Has a fruity malty grapefruit hoppy aroma. Fruity malty grapefruit hoppy bitter flavor. Has a fruity malty grapefruit hoppy bitter finish.

Sample at the Bistro’s DIPA-festival 2015. Light amber with a white head. Fresh and hoppy with citrus, grapefruit and pineapple. Also hay and light notes of cookies. The finish was bitter.

Enjoyed at gabf 2014. It pours with a clear deep gold body that has copper hues and supports a tan head of foam. The modest aroma is pine and a little bit of doughy caramel maltiness. The taste has a nice sweetness with malts and a dash of sweet tangelo and then it quickly gets into firm levels of resiny pine hop bitterness. These big bold slightly malt sweetened pine hops are soon joined by a little more sweet malts and then sliding into a pretty nice after taste. This is a really nice sipper but there’s that edge of caramel malts and sort of doughiness that really doesn’t work that well with the hops.

Tap at Capitol Beer in Sacramento, CA. Pours light amber with a white head. Aroma is strong mixed floral hop . Med body. Flavor is flowers and berries and I don’t know what the other things are. Could be melon? Among other things I call dank. It is delicious.
