The beer is a slightly murky amber. A fizzy head drops down to a thin ring of foam around the edge. The smell has a bit of American hop to it, also some slightly phenolic malt. I can get a pretty good impression of alcohol in my nose as well. The malt is pretty sticky on the first sip. I bought this beer in February, and it should have stayed a little fresher, even as I'm tasting it in July. I do get a lot of piney hop, but the extra alcohol in the malt has made this turn a little bit “medicinal.” Okay, the extra alcohol in the 16 oz. tube makes for a nice buzz. It’s worth checking out, but I think this tries too hard to be “extreme.”

4 oz. draft at Extreme BeerFest, Boston, 3 Feb, 2018. Deep orange color, some head. Aroma is citrus with Used. Flavor has juicy citrus and mild pine hints. Big malty backbone. Ends with healthy bitterness.
