Bottle. Pours a clear golden/orange color. Thin white head, good lacing. Aroma is mild citrus and piney floral hops. Taste is on par... bitter, dry, and resinous with just a touch of sweet malt for balance. Nice IPA, but in all honesty; nothing really stood out to catch my attention.

Bottle: Dark brown with a finger of creamy brown head. Roast and bittersweet cocoa aroma, translates well into the taste. Espresso works with the cocoa and a nice amount of bitters. Silky feel. At $13 for a 4-pack it seems likely that I’ll scroll past, but then again I like the serving size and it’s better than a lot of the $6ish bombers out there.

Bottle split at Endo’s house, cheers to Jed, 24/05/13. Clear dark amber with a thin off white head. Nose is caramel malt forward, hops, pine, bitter orange, bitter grapefruit. Taste comprises caramel malt, hops, grapefruit, orange pith, grass, citrus fruits, pine bite. Full end of medium bodied, fine carbonation, agressive hop bitterness in the finish. Best DIPA of a day touring smaller brewers where it goes to show it ain’t easy to knock out a decent beer of this genre!

Floral hop aromas. Flavor is just a bit too much on the sweet side for my tastes--seems to favor the malt over the hops. There are the usual pine-bitter and citrus flavors at work. Quite a bitter finish overall.

A bottle I picked up on sale at Antenna America in Yokohama. It poured a nice copper with a white head. The citrusy hop aroma was great, the flavor starts off with sweet citrus, some caramel type malt notes, a bit of pine and a clean bitter finish. A solid IPA.
