This IPA is bittered with Columbus and has large whirlpool additions of Vic Secret (an exciting, relatively new hop from HPA - Hop Products Australia), plus mosaic and Galaxy. The beer was then dry-hpped with more Vic Secret. This IPA packs a wallop of passionfruit and pineapple aromas and flavors with a piney resin finish.

On tap at Stoup, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma reveals bright citrus hops and toasted biscuity malt. Flavour is assertive, with fresh piney hops, light citrus, and crisp biscuity malt. Punchy, crisp and assertive on the finish. Excellent.

Draft 5 oz pour at Stoup. Apple juice golden color pour with a thin head and heavy coated lacing. Surprisingly sweet malt fronted aroma. Flavor is a bit juicy, citrus like hops, and a sweet finish. An odd thick and sweet combo. Odd but still interesting. Decent IPA as an overall. UPDATE: Couple years later, I picked up a crowler of this. I'm a little disappointed that I would rate such a fine IPA on just a sample, which is unlike me to do. Either that, or they really nailed this recipe after a couple tweaks. This is fantastic. Wonderful juicy hop flavor. Very nice profile to it. Easy to drink a whole crowler of this borderline imperial in very little time.
