Can from the source enjoyed at home. Pours a hazy electric yellow bordering on light orange with a frothy white head that slowly recedes. Earthy grassy lemon and resin with a bit of tropical and citrus fruits. Light bready malt and a bit of warming alcohol. Pretty nice DIPA

Can from the source enjoyed at home. Hazy cloudy bright yellow in color with a bone white head that shows moderate retention. Tropical earthy citrus with hints of pine. Sweet bread and seltzer round out the flavors nicely.

Sample at the source. Inky black in color with a smattering of tan bubbles that dissipate quite quickly. Roasty chocolate and coffee with a hint of brown sugary maltiness. Light spicy peppery roast. Nice beer.
