Rare are moments of truth, when you’ve struck the last match, belting out tunes with your friends, staring deep into the campfire – times when you feel infinite. Our Truth is found in the scintillating brilliance of hops. Brewed with a nod to the Pacific, hops sizzle with tropical fruit aroma, grapefruit and mango notes and a dry finish.

Can thanks to DrSilverworm. Pours a cloudy yellow gold with small off white head. The aroma is strong fruity hop and wet biscuit. Thin mouth, strong wet hop, sweet malt, lingering bitterness.

Thanks Tracy.
This was poured into a pint glass.
The appearance was a nice looking hazy amber color with a nice transparency about it. A two finger white foamy head dissipated after about a minute. Fairly thick foamy lacing stuck nicely around the glass.
The smell had a deep sweet citrus to piney sweet and bitter grapefruit. A nice sweet caramel allocates itself nicely in the background.
The taste was mainly sweet but carried a nice settling bitterness to round out the flavor. A nice sweet sticky fruity aftertaste leads into the finish, it’s not as dry as the can says so but that doesn’t bother me.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. For an AIPA, the carbonation seemed to be a tad lighter than expected but still worthy.
Overall, this was a nice AIPA that comes across a bit smoother than expected. I’d have it again.

(Thanks Peter "phaleslu") Can. A- Tropical citrus, herbal, spruce. A- Dark orange color, clear liquid, off white head. T- Bitter, citrus, floral. P- Medium body, thin texture, average carbonation, bitter finish. O- Great fresh IPA. The citrus notes are great but don’t define this beer. The floral and herbal notes balance it out well to make it feel complex and not just one sided. So many things going right for this beer. The only thing I don’t particularly care for is that the mouthfeel seems a little thin.

Draft. Orange malt and grapefruit peel aroma. Golden yellow with moderate head. Sweet earthy tangerine malt and moderately bitter pine/orange peel flavor. Very nice.

In the can @ home. Pours a clear, dark orange appearance with a nice tan head. A ton of tropical fruit notes in the aroma - apricot, pineapple, peach. Also some bubblegum and piney notes. Soft mouth feel. More fruits in the flavor, but it’s actually a lot more resiny and piney. A little bready. Nice carbonation. Good brew.
