On tap at Hop Devine. It pours a hazy yellow color with a large frothy white head. The aroma has big Citra grapefruit, passionfruit, light grass and mango. The flavor is bright with passionfruit and mango up front. Creamy and soft on the palate. Light grassy bitterness. Mostly mango, pineapple, grapefruit juice. Oh man another killer! My favorite in the crush series and only a hair inferior to Yojo.

On tap at Bottles. It pours black with a thick brown head. The aroma has lots of roasted malt and smoke. Background hints of dark bread and dates/fig. The flavor has raisin bread and a velvety texture. Lots of roast with a little smoke. Bready and dark fruity raisin, fruitcake and smoke. Very little roast and or bitterness. Thick. Good.

On tap at Bottles. It pours a golden color with an off white head. The aroma is bright and fruity with grapefruit, pineapple and hints of sweeter mango. Very light pine, honey and toast. The flavor is very smooth and oily with grapefruit, pine, pineapple and peach. Warming alcohol. Hint of marzipan near the finish. A bit boozy, but right up there with the best in the style.

Can thanks to Nolen! Pours very hazy, pale yellow/straw, small white head, decent lacing. Flavor is limey, grass, dank pot, light cat piss, melon. Flavor is light sweet, light bitter, really juicy. Light plus body, a bit low on carbonation, but still a super nice IPA>

It pours a super hazy yellow with a white head. The aroma has huge peach, papaya, lightly grassy and a bit cheesy. The flavor is the same. A little cheesy and grassy with pineapple and peach. Low bitterness. Nice creamy mouthfeel. Good, but my least favorite of the crush series so far.
