Pours a cloudy golden-copper, with thick, lasting head. Aroma is dank, with loads of hops, tropical fruits, cat pee. Flavor is nicely-balanced between the hops and the malt. Lots of hoppy fruitiness, but not too bitter, and the alcohol content is well-hidden. Very nice double IPA.

Sampled on draft this beer poured a slightly hazy yellow-golden color with a medium sized foamy white head that left decent lacing. The aroma was citrus and perfume. The flavor was dryish and dusty with citric acid, perfume and cut flowers. Long finish. Medium body. Blah.

16oz can from Sully’s Pours a solid dark brown bordering on black with a smallish tan head that dissipates almost instantly. Aromas of chocolate, roast and vanilla dominate with hints of dark fruit, charred sugar and light earth. The flavor is sweet with big chocolate and vanilla countered with a sharp molasses char kind of flavor happening. Little to no hop flavor or bitterness that I could find. Thick body with an oily sugary mouthfeel and a faint level of carbonation. 5.3 % abv but it drinks like its 9% and thick inky oily as shit. Not something I enjoyed much.

Can. Pours a clear gold with a slight orange hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has bitter citrus with a touch sweetness and a sweet grain backbone. Flavor has more of an earthy/bitter citrus note with a bit of grass and some grains underlying.
