Bottle courtesy of Bu11zeye: Poured a clear golden color ale with a medium size foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of dry and citrusy hops is clearly dominating with some notes form floral hops but too subtle to make a real impact. Taste is also dominated by some dry and citrusy hops with a light malt profile. Good carbonation with an average body and no apparent alcohol but lacking floral hops. Nice experiment overall but not something I would wish to have on a regular basis.

Nice bomber from Liquid Solutions. Smooth aromas of resin and citrus. Almost floral. Sort of an amber gold, almost copper, color with a decent whitish head that laces a bit. Hits the mouth with a harsh shock. Hops and hops. Medium to full bodied with creamy/chewy carbonation. I’m sure there’s malt in here, but the hops are primary. I vote for resin and grapefruit, but the citrus is a little disturbed by the others. 100 IBUs. Finishes nice and bitter to support that number. Gets a bit mild after the taste buds overload. Really great IIPA.

Thanks to beastiefan2k for sharing - slightly hazy gold/orange beer, with a frothy head - spicy, piny, west coast hop aroma, with some underlying citrus and strawberry - highly resinous hop flavor, which gets quite spicy on the back end - a mild, ambiguous malt backbone keeps this beer all about the hops - dry and biting, without becoming astrigent.
