Flight Taster. And now the end is near… A bit clear color in the glass, not always expected in a DIPA. Small ring of foam persists. Smell brings up malt and a little alcohol. Taste really had more make to it than an expected hop bomb. Now there's a bit of West Coast hop in the taste, that picks up as I go along. Allows the alcohol to play a little more on the palate, tempered by a straight charge of hop bitterness.
