This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a hazy orange color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated within less than a minute. Light stringy lacing remained around the glass in a slightly messy sort of way.
The smell had a bitter citrus rind weaving in between sweet pine and leading into a full bittersweet feel in and around my nose.
The taste was fully bittersweet grabbing my taste buds for the full effect of the punch of bitterness in the taste. There’s a light bitter to semi-sweet citrus aftertaste. The finish was quick and left a light dryness.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a decent sessionable feel about it. Carbonation maintains a good level for a DIPA allowing the bitterness to give the appropriate pleasing kick for DIPA fans.
Overall, I really liked this one. Its everything a DIPA should be as it always keeps its bittersweetness all the way through the beer. Definitely again.

375ml bottle thanks to Derek. Pours out a opaque straw topped with a small head. Nose is Brett fruit and bubblegum and some spice. Taste is more of the Brett spice and a little fruit.

Very clean palate that is hoppy with apricots. Very quaffable and balanced pale ale.

Hazy yellow-orange color with small head. Aroma is very tropical, intense thick hop juice. Taste is juicy hoppy, more tropical fruits and pines, with a rather weak malt body. Feels light, the body is thin, but the bitterness is really strong and tells that this one is a very Imperial IPA. Carbonation is low but present. A very unusual and interesting Double IPA.

Tap at Harenohi. Pretty orange-golden color, hazy, with lace. Spicy rye nose, citrus hops, peaches. SMooth, low bitterness. Rye spicness comes though mainly with low hop flavor or bitterness. Mild.

On tap at Apex, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Nose brings out loads of jalape�o upfront, with citrus hops in there too. Flavour is massive on the jalape�o - the hops are there but buried underneath. A little too much of the pepper for me, but it's okay.

Mother Kellys. Keg. Hazy deep red - amber beer, small cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry, modest fine carbonation. Rich creamy malts bring toffee - caramel. Ripe fruits in the mid. Pinch of spice. Generic fruits before a somewhat premature finish. The beer just stops hard and becomes hollow, most peculiar. Nicely integrated flavours but a strange finish.

22oz bomber pours with a mahogany colored body that supports a thin tan head. The aroma offers up truckloads of nutty hazelnut and then to a lesser extent there’s slivers of chocolate and dark roasted malts. The taste starts with, oh my, nearly brash levels of thick hazelnut nuttiness that only conjures up modest nutty sweetness. Like in the nose there are chocolate and dark roasted malt notes well off in the background. Solid brew and as it warms the roastiness and chocolate make up ground on the hazelnut onslaught.
