Bottle, at share, thanks to mansquito. Pours deep red brown. Biscuit, caramel, prune, orange zest. Way too overcarbonated. Fine.

16 ounce can. Labeled as Kryptonite Double IPA. Bright brassy gold pour. Frothy beige head. Big citrus hop aroma has notes of grapefruit and lime. Some earthy malt as well. Bittersweet toasted malt flavor upfront. Dank citrus and pine dominate. Warming alcohol and black pepper finish. This is a hop lover’s delight. A true West coast style DIPA.

On tap at the Rehoboth location, pours a translucent cola brown with some thin off white head.  Nose is spot on, burnt grains, toasted bread, cocoa, yeast.  Flavor follows, coffee here too.  Finishes dry with some roasty bitterness.  7 3 7 4 13

On tap at the Rehoboth location and there's no way I'm making this a separate entry. Fluted glass, clear dark gold with a ring of white head.  Grass and corn on the nose, some bread dough too.  Flavor is bread dough, yeast, soap, corn, grass.  Crisp finish.  Decent enough.  6 3 6 3 12
