We're leaning all in on the hazy game with this big fruit bomb of a DIPA. Hopped to high heaven with El Dorado, then finished with a combination of Jarrylo, Monroe, and Huell Melon, Huckster is a fruit salad in a glass. The aroma gives off intense orange peel and orange syrup, while the flavor showcases more delicate supporting fruits of strawberry, honeydew, raspberry, and papaya. It pours with a beautiful deep golden haze, and the yeast in suspension add a creamy mouthfeel that help this beer go down smooth despite the 8.9% ABV. Moderate bitterness and an off-dry finishing keep things refreshing so you can have more than one in a sitting, but be careful -- that Huckster might try to push itself on you!

Hibiscus nose. Cloudy copper with a pinkish hue, thin head. Raspberry. Light body, easy carbonation. I think I was served the wrong beer, but the place where I got it is known for screwing up orders. They have no idea what they're doing.
