Can from Downtown Liquor in Salem, OR. Pours clear gold with a decent white head. Aroma is lots of citrus, including some grapefruit and a bit of pine. Med body. There's a lot of malt, but grapefruit zest and pine keep it down. A tad juicy. A tad undry. But a lot of bitterness. Good drink.

On tap at The Beer Mongers, pours a deep dark reddish brown with a small white head. Aroma smells like an authentic doppelbock, with toasted caramel, bready malt and a tiny hint of barrels. Flavour reveals a restrained barrel character, with bready malt, toasted caramel, and a touch of whiskey. Balanced well, with subtle barrels that add a nice dimension. Very good.

Draft at the Handlebar. Hazy golden pour, fine layer of foam, rings of lacing. Fruity, citrusy aroma. Taste changes things up, stone fruit, ripe melons with a touch of citrus zest.

12 oz can poured, from Kroger. Clean penny copper appearance, loose foam head. Really nice citrus and floral hop combo here. Aroma is well balanced with pine, grapefruit, and caramel malts. Flavor bites like an imperial, but isn't overly aggressive. Soft tropical and citrus fruit notes round our an otherwise piney bitterness. Constant caramel malt background. Flavorful and delicious double IPA. Love to see that you can still find high quality, non hazy double IPAs in 6 packs for 10-12 bucks. One of the better ones in my locals current grocery aisle lineup. Very good.
