CAn form my son in law for christmas gift. Smell a little like BO with some perfume on top. Cloudy like a new england IPA and it has a big rocky white foam. Strong bitter hops follow up on the nose. Yes, its big and bitter, tastes like many IPA, probably should be styled as such. Tasty bitter floral IPA fer sher. As a lager lover its a little difficult to enjoy. Finish is like any other IPA, long bitter and somewhat nasty. You got to be a man to enjoy this style.

5 week old can A: Pours opaque dark yellow with a tall thick white head that held up and laced the glass well. S: Sweet citrus and tropical fruit with slight pineapple astringency over sweet bread dough. T: Bitter, sweet and dry flavors of grapefruit and pith. Tropical notes linger with a hint of dry toast. M: Light body and juicy texture with soft carbonation and a slightly pulpy finish. O: Fairly tasty and nice overall but with a bit of hop burn going down.
