On tap at La Cumbre - West, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma is tangy and piney, with citrusy, piney hops, some white wine tang and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is tangy and forceful, with citrus hops, some white wine tang, piney hops, and melon. Bright, juicy and bitter. Expertly made. Excellent.

Poured up on tap at Tipsy Cactus where it exhibits a crystal clear pure gold body that supports a thin off white head of foam. The aroma offers up a bit of resiny hops and then a blend of melon, honeydew and cranberry / tangelo. The taste delivers some resiny bitter sticky pine hops and then more cranberry and melon. Really nice and I just want to sink my teeth into pint after pint of this.

750 ml bottle shared by Willrunforbeer, dude, you killed it again tonight! Much thanks. Color is a lightly hazy gold with thin head. Aroma is zesty with light white grapes, tropical fruit, coconut, and booze.
Well, the booze here is not hidden at all, you will notice it. The hops are alive and well but wow! Slap me in the face with some alcohol. Hard to hide the 10.6 percent. The tropical fruit and grapes are here in full affect with a lingering, strong bitterness. Light grassy hints, good but a harsh slap of booze. If this brewer could cut back on the malt bill and turn down the booze this would be a home run.

22oz bomber sent by Elise. Unfiltered orange-tan body. Delicate NZ hops meet huge IIPA. Kind of has the dextrose push thing going on, but it completely an awesome modern IIPA so who cares I suppose. Nelson offers up so many nice guava, tropical notes...i don’t get tired of it. Monstrous beast of an IIPA, unfairly and questionably taken to the dome by thyself. Straight up resiny triple IPA hop finish, deep IBUs. Official modern pleasure. Solid offering. Wowsers. I want more.
