750 ml bottle in a trade with a dude from Untappd. No bottling date or code anyplace. Cool label. Thin white head lacing the snifter. Color is a hazy orange. Aroma is mega shit ton of fruit. Peach, guava and papaya juice. And plenty of malty caramel.
Is there hops in this brew? Wow, a mega ton of fruit juice. The huge amount of fruit juice makes this very sweet. Almost no bitterness at all in the finish. As far as the malt bill... Well, it’s not he but the amount of fruit nuances are in the absurd amount. If I tasted this blind, I never would have called this an IPA. Would have said fruit beer. And definitely they must have use fruit.
Holy fucking fruit cocktail Batman!

Poured from 22 oz bottle thanks Airforcehops amber orange color with a thin white head with nice lacing. Aromas of caramel and biscuit malt with a hint of floral and fruit guava puree. Taste is very sweet caramel fruit and barely a trace of hops. Different.
