Golden color, frothy white head. I think age has caught up with this beer and the nose was fairly muted. A touch of floral sweetness. The mouth is well balanced, a touch astringent, but overall lacks a bit of character. Definitely a well crafted beer, but flavors were just not a prominent as expected.

22 oz. bottle, sent from mista (thanks a lot, Geoff), pours a hazy golden orange with a small off-white head. Nose bursts of tropical fruits, loads of piney hops, some citrus, and just enough biscuity malt to back. Flavour is just as robust and divine, with loads of juicy tropical fruits, loads of piney hops, and dry biscuity malt. Wow, super fresh, juicy, hoppy and dry - pretty much checks all my boxes for what I seek in a IIPA. Phenomenal stuff. Beer in its highest form.

Bomber courtesy of tkrjukoff. Pours clear golden with a frothy and slightly bubbly offwhite head that slowly dissipates while leaving a small trace on the glass. Smell is tiny sweet, fruity and slightly herbal with caramel, grapefruit juice, freshly cut grass, pine needles, passion fruit, star fruit, watermelon juice, orange zest and lemon zest. Taste is sweet, bitter, fruity and slightly herbal with caramel, grapefruit juice, watermelon rinds, passion fruit, unripe pineapple, freshly cut grass, pine needles, orange zest and lemon zest. Mouthfeel is round, tiny sticky, slightly astringent, tiny boozy and medium bodied. Finish is slightly sweet, bitter and slightly fruity with caramel, grapefruit juice, freshly cut grass, pine needles, orange zest, lemon zest, passion fruit, star fruit, yellow winegums and water melon rinds. Fresh and very tasty... Possibly slightly too sweet.

CBC Session 1. Growler share, big thanks to Krjukoff. Hazy pale gold beer, big bubbly white head. Palate is light and dry with very modest carbonation. Floral yeasty.sweetness. Whisper of something fruity. Dry finish. Profoundly disappointing.

Hazy light amber color. Big frothy white head. Massive fruity nose, tons of mangos and tropical fruits. Well balanced, light body. Not too bitter, but lots of hops. Very drinkable. Tons of linger tropical fruity finish.

Light amber golden color. Frothy white head. Huge Citra bomb in the nose with lots of mango and citrus notes. The mouth is flawless, really well hopped, decent backbone, but light and smooth. Uber quaffable. Modest, but not aggressive bitter finish. Very rounded. A benchmark of an APA. Lives up to the hype.
