Fairly hazy deep copper and orange coloured body with a nice, two to three centimetre tall off-white head. Aroma of big citrus fruits, a herbal and grassy bite, but a ton of candy-like sweetness from the hops here with lemons and peaches also noticeable - very nice and pungent with a robust alcohol and malt balance noticeable as well in the nose at least. Medium-bodied; Very rich malt body with a lot of melons, papaya and earthy notes that show a lot of depth, but the hops are noticeable here in a pungent and dank way with a noticeable mango and tangerine bite that has some bitterness, but not overwhelming in any way. Aftertaste shows some rich pungency from the hops with a nice complexity from the alpha acids and a crisp maltiness that is balanced nicely without too much of the alcohol coming through. Overall, a nice almost Imperial IPA that is very rich and robust with a ton of tropical fruits, especially citrusey fruit notes along with a dry bite, but sweetness that persists and somehow blends well with the bitterness from the hops. Nice to try and well-recommended for the style and for the alcohol, with a lot of flavours and complexity for the style. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Bread and Honey (8th Ave @ 50th St) in New York, New York on 20-December-2020 for US$7,00 sampled at my house here in Washington on 04-June-2021.
