Can pour (upside down label--intentional?) from trade with AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! It's an opaque, slightly murky, medium brown (almost like cider) with light sparkle at the edges of the glass, finger-width off-white foamy head with fair retention and no lacing. Aroma is light fermented tart and sweet fruit, mild banana, grainy base. Taste follows aroma with strongly sweet, though nondescript, fruit (perhaps with some banana, melon and apple) and sweet grain backbone. Mouthfeel is medium-to-full bodied with thick texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, despite high ABV, enough hops to cover it up so no hint of alcohol. Would never guess Mosaic was in here, though. This certainly isn't like every other DIPA out there right now so that's kind of good, but can't tell if this is intentional or a failure in execution. Like most sequels, perhaps not as good as the original. Wonder what Brook Ones Part 1 is like? First exposure to the brewer and wouldn't say No in the future.

16 oz. can. Color is a deep golden straw. Aroma is old orange juice, mild floral,and mild booze. Flavor shows light citrus, soft floral, and brewers yeast. Considering the strength the booze is kind of hidden. Shows no bitterness. It is alright.
