Bottle as Brazen DIPA, 5.6%. it pours murky, muddy brown with a frothy white head. The aroma is sweet, juicy, ripe mango, papaya, nectarine, marmalade, earthy, touch of spice and candy. The taste is firmly dry, bitter, earthy, flinty, spicy, bitter orange peel, waxy rind, campari, fragrant, floral, grassy, leafy and floury bread with a drying, bitter finish. Medium body and moderate+ foamy carbonation. A bit muddled perhaps. Wish it was brighter and cleaner.
