16 oz can on 31st Dec 2017, one of many beers drank during a rather long session to bring in the new year. Poured into a La Chouffe stemmed tulip glass at my daughters in California. Golden/orange body, off-white topping. Tropical fruit leanings in the nose and taste with grapefruit to the fore in both. Good hop bitterness to the brew, easy drinking IPA.

32oz crowler pours with a murky brackish dull copper brown body that has thin gold hued edges and supports a nice dirty white head of foam that leaves behind some spotty lacing. The aroma offers up a blend of pineapple, grapefruit, a bit of tangerine and then cantaloupe. The taste delivers some grapefruit and somehow pineapple bitterness and then a modest level of cantaloupe and tangelo juiciness. The moderate degree of hop bitterness runs the length of the experience with only modest juiciness here and there.

Can from Gedeelde Vreugde. Medium thick, tightly 'papery' lacing, off-white, stable head, opening middle but retaining as a pattern of dotty 'islands'; lightly hazy, warm and pure golden blonde colour, yellowish with ochre tinge. Aroma of raw garlic, a lot of yellow grapefruit, old cheese, cumin seed, lemon rind, lime juice, gin, dried out white bread, apple peel, pine resin, olive oil, white pepper. Fruity, crisp and clean onset, green banana, unripe pineapple, starfruit, sweetish with a sourish edge, softish carbo. Smooth, oily mouthfeel, feeling lighter than expected from a near-9% ABV beer really; 'white' bready maltiness, bit understated in the 'biscuit' department; long, spicy hop bitter finish as is to be expected, garlic-ish, very grapefruity, white pepper, 'green' citrus peel, followed by warming, gin-like alcohol which, in all, remains perfectly in place. Exemplary as expected, but could perhaps do with a tad more caramelized maltiness?

Can from Beer Republic, at 8.5%, canned on 06/28/17 so 4.5 months old now, 16 oz sample. Clear golden color, short frothy head. Aroma of grassy and flowery hop, together with some sweet candy maltiness. Same goes for flavor, grassy bitterness, sweet candy. Tickling bitterness on the tongue. Pretty heavy still, even though the malt is quite clean and not caramel heavy, like most Dutch brewers would do. --- Beer merged from original tick of Pizza Port Kook Double IPA on 14 Nov 2017 at 23:23 - Score: 8
