Murky greyish colour. Overload of vanilla. Still some bitterness and hop expression, citrus and berry. But the two parts of this beer - the IPA and the adjuncts - have nothing to do with one another in concept or on the palate.

Stupid big can. Pours gold with moderate head. Aromas of limes, pine, resin, and biscuity malts. Flavors follow same with slight bitter finish. Quite nice but the big can for a a rather high ABV DIPA is stupid; minus points.
