Draft. Clear golden color. Nice aroma of fruity coffee, fresh hay. Taste is straw on a coffee background. Works well.

Got this from butters_mcgee. 12 ounce bottle into tulip glass, bottled on 10/7/2015. Pours moderately hazy/cloudy golden orange color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense off white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass. Aromas of big grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, mango, lemon zest, orange peel, pine, honey, bread, and floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great complexity and balance of bright citrus/tropical hops and moderate malt notes; with great strength.

Good amount of pine/citrus rind/grassy bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, mango, lemon/orange peel, pine, and floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of bright citrus/tropical hops and moderate pale malt notes; with a great malt/bitterness balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Good amount of dryness from bitterness after the finish as well. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth and moderately sticky/resinous mouthfeel that is great. Alcohol is very well hidden with minimal warming present after the finish. Overall this is an awesome DIPA. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of bright citrus/tropical hops and moderate pale malt flavors; and very smooth and easy to drink for the ABV. This appears to be all Citra/Amarillo hops to me as well. A highly enjoyable offering.

Bottle - E027. Pours cloudy orange, small off-white head, a bit fizzy, some lacing. Aroma is oaky, very oaky, lemon, light Brett and basement funk. Flavor has some sweetness at the start, then light plus tart, medium funk with a rich Brett character, basement and musty leaves, very oaky, hints of lemon. Light plus body with a really fine champagnelike carbonation. Very good.
