Pint can. Pours a crystal clear yellow gold color with a big sudsy white head with fair retention and lacing. The aroma features spicy noble hops and some grains. The taste mirrors the aroma--a big noble hop presence with some mixed grains. Bitterness is moderate. The palate is clean and crisp. Finishes short and dry. Overall: Damn Fine pilsener

8.4 oz can. Pours a clear yello9w color with a big sudsy white head that soon vanishes. The aroma is faint with grains and a bit of green weeds. The taste like the aroma is grains, something weedy and some spicy hops. The palate is medium. Finishes short and dry with some lingering hops. Overall: Nice but not that nice.

pint can. pours a clear 14k gold color with a large foamy white head that has fair retention. The aroma is cereal grains and a trace of spicy hops. The taste is grains, corn, and a good dose of spicy noble hops. The palate was light and crisp with very lively/prickly carbonation. Finished medium and duration with lingering hops. Overall: Not bad for a fizzy yellow beer.

375ml bottle. Batch 1. Pours a deep dark purple color. The aroma is strong with mixed berries. The taste is a big blast of tart berries, something of a mix of blackberries and blueberries. There some woody tannins in there too. The taste is quite tart with only a trace of sweetness. The palate is full and coats the mouth well. Finishes incredibly long and complex with different taste sensations arising long after the glass is done. Overall: Just fantastic.

Pint Can. pours a hazy dark yellow/amber color with a medium white head that soon fades into a fine scum. The aroma is big and bold with mango, grapefruit and lemongrass. The taste is not as bold as the aroma would suggest--I get lots of mango and papaya with just a trace of bitter grapefruit. The palate is full and the carbonation is soft. Finishes somewhat short and dry. Overall: Decent, but not my fav DIPA by far.

375 ml bottle. Pours an opaque black with a small brown head that soon dissipates. The aroma is quite strong with whiskey, oak barrel and vanilla. The taste mirrors the aroma, lots of whiskey, vanilla and caramel. The palate is full and oily. Finishes long and semi-sweet with lingering caramel. Overall: decent--big beer.

12 oz can. pours a slightly hazy yellow-amber color with a big sudsy white heas that has fair retention and ample lacing. The aroma is a bit subdued with spicy herbs and some pine. The flavor is pine, spicy herbs, and some cotton candy. Bitterness is on the mild side(for an APA). The palate was full and the carbonation was soft. Finished short and dry. Overall: Nice--very crushable APA that goes down easy and begs me drink another one.
