A double-dry hopped triple IPA with Citra, Nelson Sauvin, Amarillo, Centennial, and Incognito Citra. Huge hop character of kiwi, lychee, white grape, cream, passionfruit, and tangerine. Rich grainy crackery malt with moderate sweetness. Medium-high bitterness that balances with the sweetness. Clean and dangerously smooth for the 10.2% ABV. It's like drinking fresh-squeezed hop nectar.

Slight haze, no head. Some fruity hop. Somewhat boozy, that defines things. Allium and a little bit of orange as well. Not awful but it is a bit clunky. The kind of TIPA where you're better off with a dink pour.

Poured from the tap @ P49. Clear light gold with small white head. Simple biscuit malt with some booze and a mild citrus tropical hop combo. Slightly unbalanced.

On tap at Parallel 49, pours a clear golden orange with a small white head. Aroma has some alcoholic notes, along with light tangy hops, and subtle candied fruits. Flavour follows, with floral, oniony, and tangy hops—bringing the good from Nelson and the bad from Citra—along with some fusel alcohols, and gentle sweet malt. Despite the flaws, this comes together pretty well and is drinkable given the ABV.

Flight pour at the brewery. Pours mostly clear gold with a white head. Tons of tangy berries and citrus on the nose. Flavour has tangy berries, lemon sugar, tropical fruit; bright and sweet, but has some bitterness on the finish so it's not cloying. Thick-bodied, a bit oily. Very nice.
