Poured up on tap at the brewery where it exhibits a crystal clear deep gold body that supports a nice white head. The modest aroma offers up malt nuanced pineapple, some thin cantaloupe and then a sliver of citrus with a bit of pine hops toward the end of the draw. The taste delivers rich fairly thick smooth flavor and bitter hops with apricot, strawberry and pineapple as well as some modest grapefruit and kind of a pine hop bitterness. It picks up some thin yet nice orange and tangelo like juicy hop flavor to midway. This is a really nice, sink your teeth into it IIPA. I’ll do this again anytime.
